Anyway, then my husband got his when he discovered that the toilet was not properly sealed around the base, and the extra pee that ran down the sides was actually getting into the subfloor- which not only gave the bathroom a wonderful aroma that you couldn't get rid of, but it caused damage to the subfloor that had to be ripped out and replaced. He doesn't find it so funny anymore.
that is the WORST feeling in the world!

and that happens more often than you think - someone's home bathroom can smell like urine and still be clean because of years of urine in the subfloor. replace the wax ring underneath and you're good!
