They don't.

Cartoons don't have anuses.

With the exception of Ren and Stimpy and Family Guy characters, I doubt any cartoon uses a toilet.

That said... would the TMNT just run over to any place in the sewer and let it out? I mean, they live in the stuff...

I try to think of them tromping about in storm drains, rather that sewers full o' feces. It makes it happier in my brain to do so. And, I don't gag when watching the April rescue scenes.

Perhaps we should ask Buslady for the final word on the elimination habits of turtles?

OR, how 'bout this: how did the actors inside the Turtle suits for the first 3 movies go to the loo? I'm sure they didn't unsuit for every potty break.

When they mutated they gained a special compartment in their shells that works similar to how you'd empty a bagless vaccuum cleaner. Its very clean.

They have cloacas in their little stumpy tails that do not really show in the cartoons but are still there.

And I do not know if the best receptacles for them would resemble urinals or toilets.

Since I have only owned female mice, I do not know how male rats would urinate- if they lift a leg like male dogs do.

OMG I just knew someone would eventually ask this.... *runs away screaming*

I'd say so. We never saw a toilet in the lair...

It would be pretty stupid making events about them crapping throughtout the series. It just don't belong in the world of cartoons, exept a few satirical ones.

I was going to say something really mean but even I won't make fun of the handicapped.

Buslady 07-31-2008 08:57 AM

the go to the bathroom, close the door and sit.

just like people


now if you want technical

turtles have one opening called the cloaca, this is for both waste and reproduction.

That might seriously put a damper on some fangirls' fantasies. :tlol:

Argh, I can't find the cliip I want to add to this. It's the Family Guy clip where Peter goes to the bathroom in the suit of whatever job he's working (the sequence goes thru fireman, and a few others) all because "the astronauts do it in the their suits". Then he becomes an astronaut and gets sucked into space lol.

They did make a couple fart jokes, though...

Don: I smell gas.

Raph: MIKEY!!!!!!

I like to think the turtles live in the drainage tunnels as well instead of the sewers, it keeps my sanity better. As for how the turtles go to the bathroom? Wouldn't they pee standing up just like any other male? :-? I don't really get the debate here. :ohwell:

Not unless they put their hands behind their shells and face away from whatever receptacle they're using.

NameGoesHere1066 07-31-2008 09:34 PM

so they just sit on the hopper to go pee like girl would?...Man I can't believe I'm actually disscussing this. :ohwell:

Or crouch and unleash their wastes into the sewage. But, yeah, they'd go like a girl regardless.
