osasyankee:
piss wey u hold from travell to your house, na when you reach toilet him go catch you pass, sotey you fit piss for body before you remove your clothes.


I frankly do not know why this happens. I mean you do get control of the thing by walking and thinking and squeezing your PC muscles to hold it back. But the moment you behold the sight of a toilet at times even as you try to unlock the door...it will be as if you just cant control it anymore. grin grin grin. Then you suddenly break into a race to quickly unfasten your belt and unzip your trousers. And you had better hurry otherwise........!

I try hard to just act normal and I try not to think that I am close to the toilet. Just act and pretend as if when I get inside, I will sleep first and do other things before going to the bathroom. grin
