I think you mean "All the cool kids WERE medievalists".

Yeah, I hate the squishy hissing ones. We have on the front bathroom, the original seat that came with the toilet. On the back bathroom, we have a wooden one. I only hate it when they crack.... you'd think they 'd find a way to make them better.

The toilets in Scandinavia were awesome. Short bowl, so they fit in the stall and I didn't have to get friendly with them in order to close the door. The walls were real walls, and usually came all the way to the floor. Good for privacy and for people not stealing your stuff by reaching under the nearly-useless walls we have here. Plus, they had a half-flush option, in case you didn't need a full flush. Uses less water. Some bathrooms had a sink in the actual stall though I never used those. Usually I went out because there was a line and I hate to keep the girls waiting. I also sort of hesitated because it had a sprayer on a hose and I've already had my one time in a lifetime of not being able to work the toilet.... (Japan, where the toilets are more high-tech than anything I've ever seen).

What is it about medievalists that necessitates the past tense?

Or maybe "medievalist" a mandatory step on the way to coolness? If so, I guess I'm not cool yet. And you need to change the little mojo captions so that somewhere in there people have the title of "medievalist"--before they reach swankness.

Either I'm not cool yet or I'm living in the past.

Then it's not too late for you to be a medievalist in *this* life! I'd say you're one snazzy toilet seat away from a swell start.

Anyone who owns a copy of the Heimskringla is at the least an aspiring medievalist.

HA! You got me there.
