For the commoners in this crowd who have had to suffer with indoor plumbing:
You NEVER took a dump in the chamber pot. Tinkle only. If you had to drop a log, you went to the outhouse and did so, then went to bed. Or got up in the morning and completed the procedure.
Which reminds me of one thing about the outhouse when I wuz a kid on the farm... the living things that could scare a little kid.:
You stepped in, and the wasps all turned their heads and looked at you! As you approached the one-holer, the mosquitos would boil out of it in an actual cloud.
And I DO remember the Monkey Wards catalog. This was wartime.

we had no plumbing the first 5 years of my life
i have no good memories of the outhouse.
my dad would back the tractor up to the back porch and hook it up to the washing machine on laundry days
we took our baths in that No.9 tub there on the back porch
my mom had 13 babies and I slept in a room with my 5 brothers
dad giving three of my older bros a ride

My grandparents both had outhouses and chamber pots. In the summer the contents of the outhouse pit would be boiling with maggots and the flies would tickle your butt when sitting over the hole.
Ummm, nice tractor! How was the ride sitting on a rotating wheel"
You forgot explosive diarrhea, and I still have my 1st Monty Ward Garden Tractor with s snow plow, and back tiller
That was the Garden Plow with the 2 wheels
had this one also Darn thing would almost take an arm off when back fired during a pull start
The tractor had 4 wheels
Still have 3 of these and loads of parts, I use to collect and fix them
My Grandparents had chamber servants that would empty the pots in the AM so I was told.
I always wanted a chamber maid, but no chamber pot please...those things must have gotten ripe when the maid was off. How many p-ooops does a chamber pot hold.

Yes we had a tic problem a few years ago when my sister went on vacation she brought her German shepherd to watch. Brought us tics. Plant rosemary around they hate it. I called the vet. She told us blue dawn. It worked. Dog didn't seen to mind it. It was do bad I doused the dog in it except the head. Used cotton balls for them. Some people should not be parents., Fur babies deserve better than that. After she went home I doused the entire area with some tick powder. Might have been seven not sure but that did it. I planted rosemary so they didnt come back. Dawn works takes like 5 minutes. You will see them drop off.
