Adrian NorthrupAs a frequent user of the “dumping station,” I am sick of dudes peeing on the toilet seat. What ever happened to those disposable paper toilet-seat covers? At least they gave me the false idea that there was SOME level of sanitation.

Your question led me to Google (because really, whose question doesn’t?). I searched disposable paper toilet-seat covers and found that you can buy 5,000 flushable, biodegradable covers for $58, or a little more than 1 cent a cover. Why don’t we have them anymore? My guess is the university thought it would be a better idea to spend their (or is it our?) money redoing that brick-type wall thing near Hibbard last year.
After reviewing your question, I was pretty grossed out and really disgusted. So, to console my poor self, I researched what diseases can be caught from the “dumping station.” The first answer I found? Not Sexually Transmitted Diseases. Apparently, some people claim to get STDs from toilets, not from the people they sleep with. The only possible disease you can catch is crabs, because, as one site claimed, “they like to move around.” Moving on.
Really though, if you’re that upset, I did find that you can buy your own personal box of the paper covers for only $3.95. That box would cover you for 500 trips to the “dumping station” you claim to so frequently use.
So just go Google “disposable paper toilet-seat covers” and buy some for yourself. The university has better things to spend their money on than protecting your ass. No pun intended.
What do you do when an ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend continues to drunk dial/text your current boyfriend or girlfriend?

It seems to me that it really isn’t your problem. It isn’t your fault your ex is so freakin’ weird that they can’t leave your new beau alone. Tell your significant other to man (or woman) up and tell the crazy to leave you two alone because you are in a new, committed, loving relationship and both want nothing to do with them. Sure it might hurt the poor individual’s feelings, but at least it will toughen them up a bit.
If that doesn’t work, you’re obviously going to have to deal with it. Call up the ex, or suggest to meet them in a public place (you and them in a private place sounds a little dangerous at this point). Explain to them that you’re no longer interested, but flattered that they are still obsessed with you. Emphasize that you feel bad that they have no life other than you. Then ask that they stop calling. You could also mention that it’s a bit stalker-like.
And if any of those don’t work, make your significant other get a new cell phone. Or block the ex’s number. There are options. Just be creative
