Friday Fictioneers – Cosmic Toilet
Here is my story for Friday Fictioneers, hosted by Rochelle. The photo this week was contributed by Roger Bultot.
I’ve gone for a silly, rather juvenile story this week. If you’re not familiar with “Dr Who”, all you need to know is that he travels through time in a TARDIS which is stuck looking like an old police box since its chameleon circuit jammed, and it’s bigger on the inside than the outside.

“Wow, look, that could be the TARDIS. Like off Dr Who!”
“It’s a portable toilet.”
“No, let’s go inside to see if he’s in there!”
“Who?”
“The Doctor, of course!”
“It’s a portable toilet.”
“Hmm, it is a bit of a tight squeeze. And very dark.”
“That’s because it’s a portable toilet. Hey, what’s that noise?”
“I thought since we’re in a portable toilet I’d offload that curry I had last night.”
“Oh my God. Let me out!”
“Aaaahhhh, that’s better. Hey, the door’s opening. Oy, occupied!”
Creeeaaak.
“What the Hell are you two doing in my TARDIS? And what is that smell?”
You did warn about the juvenile nature of the story …so no comments on that . If this is where the picture took you then that’s it, we just have to deal with it 🙂

I laughed out loud just reading the title, let alone the story. Hilarious, Ali. Poor, poor Dr. Who. The Tardis may never be the same. How will he get women to ride along with him now? Well done. 😀 — Suzanne

Who? Dr. Poo? I feel like being 12 again… LOL. BTW, in Bavaria, traditional outhouses (without running water)–what people used to have eons ago–there were also heart-shaped window openings in the doors. There is also a Bavarian proverb: when the butt hums, the heart is healthy (it rhymes in Bavarian). Maybe there’s a similar proverb in Sweden?
LikeLike
Bavaria too, huh? I seem to recall from the occasional old Western film that the cowboys always sat in one with a crescent moon on the door.

The first thing I thought when I looked at the photo was “ooh, TARDIS” 🙂 The Doctor might have to regenerate after this unfortunate incident.

Silly and fun. It does rather more resemble a portapotty than a tardis.

I was holding my breath reading through all the submissions hoping no one thought what I was thinking: TARDIS. But, no, there had to be other Dr. Who fans out there. There just had to be! 🙂

Hee, that’s a TARDIS in disguise if ever I saw one 🙂
Plus we’re nearly at the end of the current series, I’ve started watching series 1 again, I’ve recently watched a load of Jon Pertwee Dr Who and I just bought a really cool Dr Who Christmas jumper from the BBC shop. So I currently have Dr Who on the brain!

Ah .. I do so love the Doctor .. and should have thought that that outbuilding resembled the TARDIS … how terribly embarrassing though for the lads that the owner of the TARDIS should return just then!

Yep – pretty bad timing for both the lads and the poor Doctor! The TARDIS used to be invulnerable but it seems any Tom, Dick or Harry can wander in and out these days.

Ha ha. i’ll never look at a portable loo in the same light again. Come to think of it, I’ll never look at the Tardis in the same way, either.; I understand the lad’s mistake completely.

Ha, they could be Bill and Ted 🙂 Anything that shape and size is a potential TARDIS I reckon!

Who knew the TARDIS has a toilet. I guess it has to, though. Multiple toilets. Imagine! What’s the waste disposal system like on that? Does the Doctor, erm, offload the materials whilst swirling through space and time? Does it get made into a silly little cube, rather like a car-cruncher does with metal at a junkyard, and stored somewhere? Is there a heretofore unmentioned “Poop Planet” in the Whoniverse? If they have room for dinosaurs, the Titanic, the Slitheen, Daleks, the Silence, the weeping angels, the Rani, et al, I guess anything’s possible. (But ugh!) The world may never (want to) know the answer to where this planet lies!
LikeLike
You’ve put way too much thought into the TARDIS’s toilet facilities! Top marks for mentioning The Rani, though. Classic Dr Who! I only remember the Doctor meeting 4 other Time Lords outside of Gallifrey, the Rani being one.
There’s probably a huge room where it all gets stored and then he just jettisons the whole room when it full. Yuck!
LikeLike
Yuck is right! Thank goodness they don’t go into this unseen aspect in the TV or books (as far as I know, anyway).

I echo that 🙂 Films and TV as a whole are notoriously devoid of toilet-related activities!
