Here we are floating in outer space
Only problem with this place
Is the toilet's stuck and it won't flush
I think the pee has turned to slush
Ah crap, what do you do
When you cannot take a number two

@vxo LOL
This reminds me, I was listening in on an astronaut talking to some kids at a school (direct, VHF)... at 1:36
Astronaut Luca Parmitano KF5KDP
"I personally think the most important job (on the ISS) is fixing the toilet..."

@ai6yr well we know they have space diapers. Who will never forget the crazy astronaut lady that strapped on a bunch of NASA diapers to drive 900 miles to kill the other woman. When the great Tom Wolf was writing about “the right stuff” I’m thinking this is not what he had in mind
Dreaming of the wealth and fame,
the everlasting glow of my name
if perchance it might be me
to receive that jettisoned bag of pee.
Ah, well, I never claimed to be as fine a poet as you are, Ben!
You're kind!
