This is the best and funniest thread I've ever read. I'm still laughing as I'm typing this.
Personally, I never used any of the Oblivion houses (well, except one to store all my stuff in) and the houses in Fallout 3 just didn't feel like what a WANDERER would do.
About the bathroom... As hilarious as it sounds, I'm against it. Though it would make for some interesting new options..
"You find the experimental Enclave weapon which the Brotherhood asked you to destroy. Looking into your pockets, you notice you don't have any grenades nor any sort of ammo left.
You open a hatch in your power armour, fill up the weapon barrel with some second hand steak and lock up the firing mechanism.
Later, The Enclave tries the weapon out and it explodes in a shower of brown goo. YAAY."
Ones I laughed the most with:
You ated a 200 year old Salisbury Steak, you suddenly feel your bowels need to evacuate, you attempt to get to the toilet, but you failed to make it and took a dump in your pants. -3 Charisma.
Imagine having not relieved yourself before the final climactic battle say, as with Take It Back or something. Lyon's Pride running guns blazing, Liberty Prime spouting his anti-Commie gems and laying waste to the Enclave, and the Lone Wanderer... taking a leak missing it all, for fear of pissing in his Power Armour. :sadvaultboy:
If you were really hardcoe, you'd crap anywhere you felt like.
