Woman Sat on Toilet for 2 Years

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - Authorities are considering charges in the bizarre case of a woman who sat on her boyfriend's toilet for two years - so long that her body was stuck to the seat by the time the boyfriend finally called police. Ness County Sheriff Bryan Whipple said it appeared the 35-year-old Ness City woman's skin had grown around the seat. She initially refused emergency medical services but was finally convinced by responders and her boyfriend that she needed to be checked out at a hospital. "We pried the toilet seat off with a pry bar and the seat went with her to the hospital," Whipple said. "The hospital removed it."

The myriad questions that this brings up about citizens of the Heartland is staggering. I get annoyed when someone stays in the bathroom for an hour. But two years!? How could anyone sit on a TOILET SEAT for that long? A statement of the motivation of MidAmerikans, I am sure.
