"Woman ends two-year toilet stay!" Or so the headline read.
...I'm just not even sure what there is to say about that.
At first, I thought it was some sort of odd play on words, but no, it actually is as it reads. Some woman in Kansas actually sat on her boyfriend's toilet for over two years before he actually thought to call someone about it.
Two years! Until her skin had started to grow into the lid. When police came to investigate, they had to pry the top off of the toilet so they could get her to the hospital to have it removed.
And now they're considering charges against this boyfriend. Honestly, let's think about this for just a minute. These people can't be of the sharpest mental capacity. And he actually did take care of her in that time — brought her food and water everyday and begged her to come out, so it's not like anyone was really hurt. Are charges really necessary here?
Sounds like a waste of taxpayer dollars to me. Either way, the whole thing is just plain bizarre.
Oh well, I suppose the truth really is stranger than fiction.
