BAGLEY TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — A woman was rescued Tuesday from an outhouse toilet in northern Michigan after she climbed in to retrieve her Apple Watch and became trapped.

First responders were called when the woman was heard yelling for help. The toilet was removed and a strap was used to haul the woman out.

“If you lose an item in an outhouse toilet, do not attempt to venture inside the containment area. Serious injury may occur,” state police said in the release.

The state police did not say Wednesday if the woman was injured or if the watch was recovered.

That watch must have been important to fish around in the poo for it.

You’ll need a person with expertise in cleaning stuff off dogs to make that right!

Just going to the site, and seeing a picture of the toilet in question brings back memories of some of the foulness of the outhouses at Sterling State park. I may not think what she did was wise, but I will say that took a took a pair to go in after an Apple watch.

They go insane not being connected to the internet.

I swear every woman I see in a car driving, has their phone in their hand. And many are texting.

She originally dropped a five dollar bill in there. She then through her phone in there and said “you didn’t think I’d go down there for five dollars did you?”

These are the same brain-dead female one-issue voters who continue to gift us with pro-abortion demons like Fetterman and Biden. No sympathy.

I cannot fathom owning anything I’d think was worth going in for a dive for.

That said, when I use porta potties, I empty my pockets in the car and take off anything valuable like jewelry or even glasses. Mr. mm watches them in the car and we take turns.

I also carry a small spray bottle of rubbing alcohol, some paper towels, and nitrile gloves in my car at all times and use them in situations like that. I am not touching anything I don’t have to.

A man goes to hell and the devil greets him. He takes him to a hallway which has three different doors and tell the man he’ll have to choose one room to spend the rest of eternity in.

So he takes him to the first door and he opens it and sees everyone standing on their heads on wooden floors. The man thought that would be pretty terrible to spend the rest of eternity on his head on such a hard floor and asked the devil to show him the second door.

Everyone in the second room was standing on their heads on concrete. The man thought that was even worse to spend the rest of eternity on his head on an even harder floor.

Finally the devil takes him to the third door and in that room everyone is up to their knees in dog poo and drinking coffee. The man thought that was pretty bad, but at least they could drink coffee so he told the devil he chose the third room to spend the rest of eternity in. So the man, up to his knees in dog poo, drank coffee for a few minutes. Then the devil came back into the room and said “Coffee break is over. Back on your heads.”

If she had drowned in there she would have the distinction of being twice interred.

I once lost my Vuarnet sunglasses in an outhouse toilet. AFAIK they’re still there.

I’ve heard of Dumpster diving before, but outhouse diving is a new one on me.

Pass.
