15 Thoughts While Carving A Pumpkin

Carving Pumpkins has always been a Halloween tradition. You go pick out the biggest pumpkin you can find and you attempt to lug it home so you can carve the freakiest, dorkiest jack-o-lantern into it. It's fun and gooey and something that no matter what, you do every year. But it can honestly be kind of a gross and stressful process. You have to scoop out all the guts and then figure out how you can carve a decent looking pumpkin! Regardless, carving pumpkins is a lot of fun and I've sure had these thoughts while carving mine.

We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water.
