The mind boggles. Was it a yelp of pain during an explosive bowel movement?

Presumably freeze-packed vindaloo has now been taken back off the supplies manifest?

I would have worn the one with pebble-dashing on the back, though I've had it burned for reasons of basic health and safety.

There's a comment just waiting to be made about "captain's log", but I won't sink to that level. That would just be taking the p****...besides, am I the right man for the job...

etc., etc. etc.

<sucks air through teeth> Oh, sorry guv, need a special part for that - don't have it in me spaceship. I'll have to nip back to the depot for it. back in a month, alright?

Title say it all.

How do you explain to ET that she has to use a napkin to go to the toilet in and then when she lands on earth, at the Presidental lunch, napkins are placed by the plates, all the humans then place them on their laps,so ET does the same and then the smell drifts down the table eminating from ET....have you ever smelt ET urine ? Makes French loos smell nice.

Surely, the fix is simple. Just run a hose from the bog to the outerspace et voila!

Mine is the orangeglo one with Dynarod written on the back

...in the Soyuz, into which we shall not pass solid's.....

The one next to the incontinence pants.

For it's been fixed now.

And it's still broken? Then the problem's with one of the bits you didn't change, surely? Simple.

You would have thought with all these extra modules they'd have more and one toilet

38 years ago they managed to fly a crippled capsule around the moon and back, and now they can't even fix the bog......

That's the last time they have genetically modified onion bhajis on the menu.

...the next trip will sport a plumber among the crew then?

It's not exactly your "bog"-standard ablution facility, now is it?

I think the US comedian jeff foxworthy commented on a similar situation....though he did surmise it would only occur from allowing "rednecks" into space.

If I remember right the skit was called "NASA and Alabama"

:)

PARPPPPPPP!!!!!

ooer, should have saved that one until I got home...

Can you imagine the bill from the plumber to fix this one? It costs me over 80 bucks just to have one walk in the door at my house.

Lets see: trip charge, plus materials, plus time (overtime too), plus the trip to go back to get the missing parts (@Roy LOL). Cha-ching!!! Oh and add standing around time on the clock since by the time they get there they'll be late for four cigarette breaks.

"Go" because that is what they can't do on the ISS.

I have to wonder if the astronauts have been experimenting with novel forms of bodily propulsion. By forcefully emitting gas from the bottom area, a spaceman could manoeuvre himself around the inside of the space station, without having to use his arms. It's an intriguing thought.

compared to rocket engineering

"...the master craftsman who created this home/said to himself, "Romeo, let's make them functional, and comfortable."....what we're talking about in, erm, privy terms is the very latest in front-wall, fresh air orifices, combined with a wide-capacity gutter installation below."

Mrs. Pants: "You meane, you crappe out thay windowe."

Black Helicopter - there wasn't an Adder to choose. And it would probably be Lord B. Vehicle of choice...

... to the word 'floater'.

Can't fix this, then their really gonna be in the sh1t.

Mines the one with the diving helmet attached.

even if it doesn't.

... you could just have said plain and simple that "The s... hits the fan" :-)

Robots wouldn't have had this problem. Send in the robots!

That spam-can in space must smell pretty dodgy... a mixture of deodoriser and various bodily motions. Gawd! I thought boat loos smelled bad, that must be really awfull.

Paris coz she's fragrant all the time

But I thought in space, no-one could hear you pee.

I can't hold it anymore! How much further? How much longer? Are we there yet? Can we stop NOW!?

Paris-when ya gotta go, you know?

They don't switch from suck to blow!

May the shwartz be with you.

"... you could just have said plain and simple that "The s... hits the fan" :-)"

Well, no... The problem is that the shit's NOT hitting the fan, and they WANT it to. ;-)

But there is always one colleague who can't read, won't aim straight, ...

Rocket science has never been so down to earth, Lester, your turn to clean up the loo.

Just aim at that blackish holeish thing over there - like a dyson, they always suck (other sucky vacuums are available). I wonder if this means the European ATV will truly become a 'dumping' ground before being sent to burn up in the atmosphere.

Polish Astronaut when you need one..

Mine is the one with the built in port-a-potty....

I am reminded about Pete Conrad's (Apollo 12, Gemini 5, Gemini 11, Skylab 2) mention of how to use the facility on Skylab. It went something like: "When you pinch it off, you need to have a downward motion so that the remains will properly be deposited in the container". This advice was forwarded to subsequent visitors to Skylab. In addition, all of this adds to the phrase "Get your S*** together".

Surprised it took this long, really. Mine's the dirty mac.

Because it's a known fact that she sucks like a hoover for as long as you want.

Sorry, I'll get my coat. It's the one with the colostomy bag...

"But Cap'n, I dinna think she can take it..."

"I don't care, Scotty, give it all you've got"

Would this problem have anything to do with... Space Kimchi?

That stuff (the Earthside version at least) can be BRUTAL!

Flame icon because... of the well known after effects!

I sincerely hope not! This is zero gravity we are talking about.

Oh! I see you have redecorated the cabin. Interesting colour, brown.

Picto: Plumber thinking what this call out is worth.

To avoid those unfortunate misunderstandings , perhaps you should call those things on the table for spilling your food on and wiping your dirty fingers, what we do--- A SERVIETTE .
