Funny But True


A friend of mine is in the process of finishing his basement to become an inlaw apartment. They are going to install a pump for the bathroom because their is no toilet rough-in. OK here is the deal. The Father in-law who will be living here weighs in at about 350+++ who knows, what he really weighs. All I can say is he can hardly fit in a car anymore. Contrary to what some people think in order get this big and maintain this weight he has to eat massive amounts of food. I have seen it 1st hand, so I know what I'm talking about. I'm guessing that if there are massive amounts going in there will be proportional output. Should this be a consideration when purchasing a sewage pump. I'm trying real hard not to visualize this. OK you guys get the idea. I don't think it requires any more explaination.

Re: Funny But True


I was reading an article in JLC a few months ago on how they test toilets. THey use soy logs" that are 7/8" by 4" long, might have some of the numbers messed up but I think a good toilet can pass four feet of these turds. Try to find the article other than being sick, it is rather interesting.

Re: Funny But True


I don't think it should be a problem, people of that size retain allot of the of what they eat, John Wayne when he died they found 44 lbs of crap in him. so if this fella is weighing in at 350 or better figure a good part of it aint comin out. I don't know if any of you have kids who take the monster crap, According to dietrishsions this is normal, My grand daughter who is 4' and weighs about 40 pounds goes and you would think it came out of a horse or something larger. That's why you see so many people walking around with these large guts hanging out and they can't seem to lose weigh.
