What The Heck? How Did This Happen?

3. Ants crawling on laptop screen keyboard


Houston, we have a problem.

 

Where will it end.....real ant farms?

 

@Mary Robi Well, since you mashed it and it is under the screen, the only thing I can say is to use your finger and see if you can push it over to the side. It must have entered at the hinges.

 

Last year I had a small fly inside my TV screen and it took about 5 months for it to disintegrate.

 

The price of fame, I guess!

 

I decided to ask this question here, because I do ask How did this happen :
Back in the times when women wore full floor length dresses, how did women go to the outhouse ,and get various nasty business done- without getting their dresses dirtier? Head scratcher

 

I think the 'ladies' used a chamberpot and let the maid empty it. Regular people weren't so fancy.

I imagine that back in the days before deodorant, sanitary products, toilet paper, etc. that people smelled pretty bad most of the time.

 

No worries...Aunts in the Outhouse, is still keeping on topic.

 

I just saw a "thing" on that. Women couldn't wipe themselves when they wore the dresses (and toilet paper hadn't been invented), so they trained their bowels to be active in the morning before they dressed. Urine just dried naturally, and, as @Beth Gallagher said, everyone smelled pretty bad anyway and used a lot of cologne and perfume to cover it up.

 

Back in the 1600s and 1700s perfume was a booming business. Smell bad, no problem just spray some more perfume on. I think it is known now that the men in Britain wore those wigs because they all shaved their heads due to the lice being so prevalent. The wigs could be washed and it was all a part of staying sanitary and lice free, not for looks. The Thames River was the dump for everyone and landfills were always near the rivers edge. Even today human remains are found in the Thames river near the sites that had the local execution or hangman's gallows built. I love reading about the long old days of Europe. The black plague was due to uncleanliness and of course the rat population. The drinking water was so foul most men were drunks from drinking nothing but wine.

 

Maybe they ordered a Out house safe dress from the Sears Robuck catalog before they wiped their butts with its pages?

 

Ladies, aren't we glad we live now instead of back then? Men, aren't you glad your ladies don't stink like they must have back then?

 

Disgusting it was!
