I once tried to forego a much-needed Depends changing during a D2LoD game. I was a part of a great group, and I really didn't want to go AFK for the 3 minutes it would have taken me to change my diaper. I pushed on, and I regretted it.
My diaper leaked in a big way. Urine was pooled up below my computer. My Depends wasn't so dependable at all.
I could deal with the urine. I am used to that. I always have a mop and bucket handy for such issues. The major problem was that I also lost control of my bowels during the game. This is a rare occurance for us old folks, but once in a while it does happen.
So I'm sitting in front of my computer with a large urine pool below me, and an ever-expanding liquid feces phenomenon occuring in my pants. I should have grabbed the mop and bucket and cleaned the mess up, but the party I was in was really questing it up. I couldn't drop out of the party I was in, because it was questing FAST. I gained like 5 levels in half an hour.
I spent like 3 hours cleaning up after that. My computer chair still stinks.
DeeBye,
Unless you seriously have a problem at your advanced age, which I tend to doubt, I need to say I find this line of posting moderately offensive. I tried gentle sarcasm to bring this to your attention, but it did not seem to work. Such is the nature of the medium, and I don't blame you for not getting it.
If you do not have any problems peeing, I sincerely hope that it is something you are spared as you get older.
