Mine was probably back in my teens, I really had to poo but was out of toilet paper. Didn't even have paper towels on hand. So what did I do? Grabbed a bunch of school paper. But wait, its not what your thinking. I didn't just crumble and go at it, no. I took a piece at a time, folded it in half and rubbed it together. I rubbed it together so much that eventually that rough piece of paper was soft enough to do the job. I was probably on the throne for about a half hour and my tush was pretty numb for sitting on the bowl for so long but it had to be done. The process of turning school paper into usable toilet paper is a long but rewarding one. Felt like I accomplished something that day.

So Lounge, what say you???

A couple of years ago, the only key for the company mailbox ended up in the mailbox because someone was stupid. My colleagues were already looking for tools to pry open the mailbox when i went back to my desk took a long ruler, put some ducttape on it and retrieved the key.

During high school chemistry lab, used the digital scale to divide up our quarter amongt three friends (we were obviously broke) and then constructed a decent bong with the beakers and such. We were able to blaze and return to the lab without anyone being the wiser.

Just had another MacGyver moment yesterday.

I had bought some Kontrol Freaks for my PS4 controller.

They are supposed to click right on top of the thumb sticks. Really simple. However, my thumbsticks no longer had the rubber on them so the KF would not stay on securely. I had a plan.

I took two small rubberbands cut them into size so they would fit perfectly in the inner ring of the KF themselves. However, they of course did not stick to them as I didn't have any glue. I had a plan.

I took a lighter and heated up the two loose ends of the rubberband and that melted the rubberband to the inner wall of the KF. Now the rubberband was securely stuck to the KF and I was able put them on as intended and they work perfectly.

Felt like such a bad ass that I had to watch at least one episode of MacGyver after I was done!!!
