Borderline amnesiac
The wonderful thing about bureaucracies is that they have no memory of the past.
You might hear “No” today, but tomorrow the answer might be “Yes.”
They don’t even remember that you asked the same question.

Poop Away Spray
What we need is an aerosol or spray bottle that contains a spray that will dissolve or liquefy feces on contact.
When you take the huge poop in the toilet and it won’t flush down.
Or it is so sticky it glues itself to the side of the toilet bowl and leaves an ugly black lump behind that refuses to flush.
A quick spray.
*pst* *pst*
And that lump gets dissolved away and can be flushed.
Tailored weight loss programme
