    There is a toilet seat in my guest bathroom with a broken hinge. I ain't sayin how it got broken, but I will say that at 0200 hours it's shockingly easy for the whole thing to abruptly go sideways and almost dump you on the floor. Usually what happens is you come into contact with cold porcelain and wake completely up.

    My sofa's backbone broke the first time one of my guests sat in it. I've never told him, and at this point the seat has a huge divet in it and I keep gravitating into the middle when I sit on it.
  • They need to make sturdier toilet seats . . . . I'm just saying. And while they're at it, if they could make a stability ball that doesn't sink like a beanbag chair when I get on, that would be greeeeaaat! :grumble:

    Totally agree! Watch out for outdoor resin chairs, too. If they've been left out in the weather for too long they get brittle. :bigsmile:

    I've broken the hinges on a few toilet seats. I also broke a toilet entirely one time because I leaned to grab some extra tissue from under the sink and knocked the whole sha-bang loose from the floor. I was about 10 years old and mooorrrtttiiiffied! I've broken seatbels in cars - pulled it too far to reach around me and it would never roll back into the door panel. I've broken zippers on a million things - pants, jackets, zippy sweaters. I broke my chair at work when I first started here a little over a year ago. The piston thingie that goes up and down to adjust the seat, it kept jamming farther and farther down toward the ground each time I flopped my big booty into my chair instead of just sitting. It got so bad that the screw on the bottom of it was scratching the tile on the floor and they had to get me a new chair. This chair remains unbroken!

    our toilet seats are always breaking, but on this one I know it's not my fat bum - more the kids wriggly ones! They sit onit sideways and wrigle until the hinges just canna take it any more!
    we're always replacing them:(
  • My rocking chair must've taken a beating...had to replace that recently, with a more sturdy, non-moving chair. I have ripped a pair of jeans....bent over to pick up my parents new puppy, and RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP, big ol' hole in the @ss. That was fun.

    yeh, never be embarrassed to admit REAL LIFE...everybody puts their pants on one leg at a time. And I'm almost positive that aliens are fatter than us.

    That's the difference between a man and a woman. A man thinks jeezzz this is a piece of crap. A woman thinks something is wrong with her. Spend the dollars to get a good seat (that's one of the important ones:). Something comfortable, easy to clean that will look nice in the bathroom. Honestly, my cat could break some of those.

    OOPS~ I sit on these VERY carefully....not pretty when one explodes!!
  • When I was in high school, I was in a class and was leaning on the back legs of a chair. They were metal legs and a plastic seat. The legs bent all the way back and I ended up on the floor! Horrified I laughed it all off and everyone s******ed and made their fat jokes. I thought it was all over then later on that day, the broken bent up chair was left outside the faculty lounge door for the care-taker to fix. So every student that walked through the main corridor that day found out what happened to the chair. :(

    This also happened to me twice in high school.
    I have also broken 2 plastic garden chairs at parties. I avoid them now :/ Haha!

    Exercise ball. One minute I was doing sit-ups on my exercise ball the next my back was crashing to the hard floor. It's a pretty rotten feeling breaking workout equipment because you're so fat.

    I broke a chair once! We were all eating dinner at my Mom's house and next thing you know POW! I'm on the floor looking up at everyone! Granted, the chair was 30 some odd years old, and kind of creaky but STILL! I'm glad I was surrounded by my own family though or I would have been so embarrassed! We CRACKED UP! I still laugh about it til this day :-)
  • You guys are cracking me up.:laugh:
