The many uses of Pam cooking spray (other than cooking)

Pam sprayDid you know some people use Pam cooking spray in the bathroom? It's true!

And I'm not talking about that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer cooks in this shower. This is used on the toilet. The seat, to be precise. Our friend Heather over at our sister blog DIY Life reports that her brother helps with the kids and uses the Pam on the seat so things won't be as, um, messy when her son does his job.

Other uses around her house include her son using it to spray the wooden deck so he can snowskate in the summer. This sounds awesome and dangerous, or dangerously awesome. It's like Paula Deen meets The X-Games!

Go on over to DIY Life and tell Heather other uses you have for Pam.

I followed you link and found that, in fact, the brother used it on the bowl of a potty seat in order to make it easier to empty, not the seat of a toilet. Makes a lot more sense that way.

An oily toilet seat is just plain wrong. Sounds more like a prank.

Slid perfectly after that, although we did have to keep shooing the dog away because it was licking the door non-stop...
