Well, well.....well. When I first heard about this sap getting super-glued to a toilet seat, my first reaction was "Well, why didn't you look before you sat down?". My next reaction was "Unless this is a joke between friends or some kind of frat thing, why would someone at the Home Depot put glue on a toilet seat?". It just sounded fishy.
Now we have a follow up story. Apparently Bob Dougherty "was glued to a toilet seat in the town's visitor center (Nederland, CO) but pulled himself free" in 2004. Wow, talk about lighting in a bottle. Twice he was glued to a toilet seat????? TWICE? I don't know anyone that's every been glued to a toilet seat, let alone more than once.
Oh, and let's not forget this moron is suing Home Depot for $3 million for "pain, humiliation and financial loss" for the incident with their toilet. WOW! Is this guy a millionaire? What financial loss are we talking about here? It's not like you were in a car accident, or suffered sever trauma; you got your ass glued to a toilet! And, apparently, you've had this happen before. Here's some advise; stop gluing yourself to toilets and blaming other people, and get your self some new glasses and a haircut so can land yourself a girlfriend and not spend your idle time with trying to come up with ways to con people. C'mon.....really? You've been glued to toilets twice????

Man glued to toilet may have history Town official: He's complained of same misfortune in past
Bob Dougherty wants $3 million for a prank he says left him stuck.
DENVER, Colorado (AP) -- A man who sued Home Depot last month claiming a prank left him glued to a toilet seat made a similar allegation about another restroom more than a year ago, an official told a newspaper.
Bob Dougherty's lawsuit alleges employees at the store ignored his pleas for help on the day before Halloween 2003 because they thought he was kidding.
But Ron Trzepacz, former director of operations for the town of Nederland, where Dougherty lives, told the Rocky Mountain News in Tuesday's editions that Dougherty told him in the summer of 2004 he was glued to a toilet seat in the town's visitor center but pulled himself free.
Trzepacz told the paper he inspected the bathroom and found "no indication that anything had been on the toilet seat." No police report was filed, he said.
Dougherty's lawyer, Mark Cohen, denied his client made such a claim and said Dougherty, 57, is willing to take a polygraph test.
"The allegation doesn't make any sense," Cohen told The Associated Press Tuesday.
Neither Trzepacz nor the Nederland town administrator immediately returned a call from AP. Nederland is about 45 miles northwest of Denver.
Dougherty's lawsuit, filed October 28, states that officials at the store in Louisville called for an ambulance after he had been stuck for about 15 minutes. Paramedics unbolted the toilet seat, which separated from his skin, leaving abrasions, according to the suit. (Full story)
The lawsuit also stated Dougherty was recovering from heart bypass surgery and that he thought he was having a heart attack when he got stuck.
The lawsuit claims he suffered pain, humiliation and financial loss. It seeks $3 million.
"It's not about the money. I want my health back. I want to be back to normal," Dougherty said. "I want to make sure this doesn't happen to anybody ever, ever again."
