Let me first give you the facts of the situation. 2 months ago, an old of friend of mine decided that he couldn't support his family on the available work in that area so he wanted to try out the job scene where I live. Being the nice guy that I am, I invite him to stay in my place until he gets on his feet which he accepted. He told me that his family would remain out of state until he secures another residence. Everything was fine apart from the process upsets that come with changes such as these. However, I went to the bathroom almost 3 weeks ago and there was urine all over the toilet. It was like a 5 year old had just used it before I arrived. My first reaction was: "What the FVCK!" I let it go and just chalked it up to him being drunk or something. Well, this morning I went to the bathroom and again there was urine all over the toilet.

My question is: How do I broach this issue? I don't want to be mean because we've been friends for years but how do you ask a grown man his reasons for pissing on the toilet? I've been thinking about it and have come up blank so I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks

There is no subtle way to ask a grown man to either acquire grown man aim, or have the courtesy to wipe up. Tell him you know he misses his wife, but since she can't be there with him he can either learn some manners or go back to her, since you're not cleaning up after his nasty ass.

I agree. I once had a friend stay over who took a **** and wiped his ass with a towel. You would have a thought he would have had the decency to ask for some toilet paper. Needless to say, I haven't invited him over again.

My friends and I are very up front with each other. And any friend that I would consider putting up for an extended period would be nearly one of the family(no passing aquaintance). I have only two such friends. First I don't believe either would do such a thing. But if they did THEY KNOW I would be asking them what the heIl they thought they were doing. Makes me wonder what kind of friend you have there. The old sign;

WE AIM TO PLEASE
YOU AIM TOO PLEASE comes to mind.

Jinn Rikki,

If your buddies can't you just say "Hey, lift up the fxckin seat when you take a piss,you fxckin slob,or squat to piss,or go outside with the dog,what the fxcks the matter with you?...Jesus Christ!

I mean anybody who pisses all over your house without an attemt to pick it up should not be allowed a lot of diplomacy.

I got a roommate like that.....he comes home and gets up to take his drunken midnight piss after being at the bar all night after work.....lid and seat are both up yet he manages to get it all over both.....

He's only one DWI from losing his license for 15 years or killing himself or someone else from drunk driving....

I don't say anything because it's his house and his life and he has to deal with both.....I'm responsible for my own life and don't get behind the wheel $hitfaced......

Most of my day keeps me moving around to the point where I just let him wipe it up or sit in it, I just find a clean toilet somewhere else to use.....besides, I'm looking for a house of my own and about to leave slobville.....

Thanks for the feedback, gentlemen. It was suggested on another forum that I frequent that I should ask him to accelerate his plans to move out thereby removing the possibility of another incident like that. I decided against that because it wouldn't really solve anything so I went ahead and confronted him. At first, he denied even doing it. After presenting the suspect list (2 people and 1 Cairn terrier) he became a little more forthright. If he didn't do it, that means that he invited someone else into my home without my permission so I hope that he did it. I didn't ask for an explanation because it probably wouldn't make much sense anyway but I did ask where he stood with his househunting plans. He assured me that it would be only 2 more months until he had enough cash.

2 months and counting, gentlemen...
