They are gross. But don't dismiss an invention totally. Might come useful in extreme circumstances.

What is beyond me is the party coordinated designs? Anybody would like to order ones with your initials printed out?

I would say that one of them P things would be FAR easier to aim with (and thus snow-write with) than our thingies! I mean, there is no possibility of splashback (happens among the uncut of us) and you would know which direction it would be actually going to come out in!!

Eww! (laughing) Well, at least they're disposable; for a second I was afraid they were meant to be re-used!
Oh, and I *loved* the "how to" section. It induced a potty-training flashback. "Pull your pants all the way down... don't *pinch*... lean forward... relax!!"
But what about the fine art of snow-writing? Who's gonna teach that? We would hate for you to miss out on the FULL experience!
(laughing)
Man, I should *not* have read that so soon before bedtime.
Good luck!

Actually, check the link for a Dutch company that makes it a much easier 'skill' for women to learn.

Heard on the Hitz: Some women has acquired the skill of doing it whilst standing up due to dirty public toilets. An essential technique to learn, don't you think?

On New Year's Day I was driving through San Fransisco & EVERYTHING was closed-even GAS STATIONS! I had to pee SO bad. Pulled off the road at an open station & the restrooms were even inside...I was SO happy. But, they were locked! & the attendant LOST THE KEY! He said he went at the conviennce store down the street, so I ran out there & into the store & the guy wouldn't let me use the bathroom. I pleaded with him, I was ready to spend like 20 bucks there just to use the damn toilet, but he wouldn't budge. The ONLY other place that was open was an Indian restaraunt so I ran in, pretended to look at the menu & ran back to the bathroom. But they caught me on the way out so I ordered $1 garlic nan which took them way too long to make & they BURNT it & the whole time I was waiting, the register guy was giving me the evil eye. Yeah, I was hating some men pretty much at that moment.

Assuming that it's the waiting in line she hates, the use of 'mankind' is especially ironic. Besides, us men never have to wait in lines!

I've never understood how, at a football game with 60k males and 15k females, theirs a line at the womens' restroom but not at the mens'.
