Godamnit!!!
 
Okay i just fucked up 2 posts in a row by accidentally hitting f5....

I had a good one, typed a bunch of shit over the course of a few minutes and dumped it by refreshing the page.,....

I was asking if anyone else listened to Opie and Anthony in the morning.....


after i screwed that one up, i was making a thread baout accidentally hitting f5, when without thinking, rather than typing "f5" i hit THE FUCKING F5 KEY!!!!!! AHHHH!


So i figured this one could be about how horrific public restrooms can be. Why isit that otherwise civilised people turn into 5 year olds in the bathroom? The company io work for is one of the biggest in the world, everyone wears slacks and button-down shirts, people dont generally swear when speaking, it's very professional, yete even this place isnt immune to people leaving dunkin' donuts bags in the toilet (Really.... this morning...), pissing on the floor, not flushing...


And then there are weird behaviors i will never understand.. people who stand at the urinal and look straight down, like they are afriad their penis will be gone if the dont watch it like a hawk. I for one make sure my aim is on then find a spot in the wall and focus....

OR people that stand back like they are writing in the snow... When i am at work, i am usually concentrating on some interesting programming propblem, i dont need to be concentrating on not seeing someoneelses "junk" when i have to take a wiz....

i fucking LOVE opie and anthony. i used to listen to them when i was like 12 back when they were on public radio.

well, in my case - its all about love ! we dont get to see much of each other all day long ... have to take advantage of the pee breaks ..



re people who dont know how to use bathrooms like civilized beings .. yeah i'm all over that ... some people live like animals .. just totally devoid of social concience.

the one i get here at work a lot are the guys who seem to be taking a bath in the sink .. when they're done the entire counter is flooded.

and... if you dont notice and lean into the counter .. yep .. a big wet spot right where it would be if you pissed yourself. (if you're 6'2")

what the fuck are they doing with the water ?

The only way to put eating utensils on the drying rack: you know there is that little plastic bucket for the forks, spoons and knives to go. They stand up in there and dry.

Well: Take the steak knives and put them in downways, folks.

Forks and spoons, you can have the business end up and visible. Then when you want to grab something, locate the fork or spoon visually and grab it.

If the business end is pointed downwards...IT'S A STEAK KNIFE. You don't have to see it to know it's a knife. And you don't have to poke your hand on it also.

Oh, and...you don't have to point the butter knife downward.

It's not sharp. You dumbass.

I don't understand how women get pee on the seats. I understand that some women don't sit on the seats, but why they wouldn't wipe up their piss amazes me. It's foul. I hate wiping toilet seats behind some nasty-ass lazy scuzz bag.:mad:

urgeok 10-23-2006 11:45 AM

holy shit, is it wednesday already ?

BudMan 10-23-2006 11:48 AM

i really dont care what anyone thinks - especially in light of my recent thread ... but at home i always sit down .. always.

i dont take pleasure in pissing all over the general area i'm aiming in ...

and for those of you to mention i have no aim .. bullshit - a spray is a spray - you cant see what isnt hitting inside the bowl.

once i left home and had to clean my own apartment - i sit .. and i pity the poor people who have to clean up after the 'manly men' who stand up..

especially the tards who dont raise the seat.

Because they want to avoid doing what they made you do, get invloved with someone else's piss.

Personally, i think that all public bathrooms should have toilets capable of sucking down a cadilac, so no more backups... Also, the stall should be built into a basin, so that once the flushing is complete, the toilet paper is hidden (it is in a dispenser that only allows paper to come out, so that ther is no way that another person can make it icky)

The stall should seal itself and then be blasted with the following:
A scalding cycle of hot batterty acid (needless to say, the water remains drained from the bowl for this)
scalding hot water
scalding hot bleach based sanititzer
scalding hot water
A gentle mist of nice cool water, then hit with a high powered fan for 10 seconds to dry everything.


this would be the perfect public toilet, always clean for the next user.

Amen to that. If you piss sitting down, then reading on the toilet isnt just reserved for sitting in your own stench, you can actually enjoy it for a change.

Okay, hows this then: How many of you have pretended you had to shit only to go pee and read for 15 minutes? Its an amazing way to get time to yourself, especially when you have at least 1 more bathroom, so they have no excuse to keep bugging you.

Reminds me of the Comic Book guy on the simpsons. He was in aport-o-potty that gets the top knocked over, so he is sitting in a field with his pants around his ankles reading a comic: "I must now find another fortress of solitude."

urgeok 10-23-2006 12:34 PM

that guy is my favorite character ..

Vodstok 10-23-2006 12:46 PM

Matt groening said that he gets approached by peopel all the time saying that they know a guy who looks and acts just like himin their town, and he said no kidding, they made the character because he live sin EVERY town that has a comic book store.

There was a guy who worked in a comic store in a town 10 minutes from where i lived who was the Comic Book Guy to a T. Fat, ugly, waddled when he walked, sarcastic...

it's funny on tv, just sad in real life. He didnt even own theplace, he was just an employee... which is even more pathetic.

Yep. the best part is when you completely outmatch them with something witty like "I may not have known spiderman had the wrong eye color once in 1967, but i got laid yesterday. by a woman. in real life."

It's great when you are a big enough geek to know how to hit them where it hurts. Make sure they know Linda Carter doent "dig" fat guys.

If we're still on toilets here...haha..."on toilets"...
I got some stuff to say.

Generally, I aim pretty well. I seldom piss ON a toilet seat, even if I've not raised it. More often than not though, I do lift it...just habit, and slamming it down feels kinda like "ok, transaction complete, check is in the mail, bitch"

What bugs me, is chicks that whine about it if you leave it up...sure, I get that they don't use it when it's up, but, we don't use it (most often) when it's down, yet...we don't expect them to raise it for us, no?
Can't really be a hygeine thing assuming people wash their hands when they get outta there. Anyways, essentially not a point I figure worth arguing. Just shut the lid yourself girls, and know that for the few incredibly traumatic times you find the lid "up", us guys find it "down" almost every damn time, in our lives.

Public restrooms...yeck!
I won't take a shit in a public bathroom unless it's like extremely well maintained and cleaned regularly. (I'm most partial to cinema bathrooms, around here, they're kept the best)...pissing, fine, whatever.

I just had an experience with a public restroom actually, or something like one. I was on a long (8 hour) train trip on a "nice" train, yknow, one of the expensive ones that goes like, WAY further than most. Anyways, this little stall is TINY. No problem, that's to be expected.
However, it doesn't lock with a simple mechanism like most public restrooms, it has a proper switch/latch activated internal lock. So anyways, I had a piss, washed up, and went to get outta there, unlocked the door.
Or so I thought...Locked door.
Thought maybe I'd left it unlocked in the first place, therefore I'd just locked it....so, went to open the door again, still locked.
After trying for about 5 minutes the same thing, and trying to put my full weight onto the door handle, I was starting to get a mite irritated.
So, I went ahead and put my shoulder into that door. Now...I'm pretty heavy set, and most doors would really not be a problem for me. But this bastard mustve been somehow reinforced ,after trying three times, I realised my shoulder sould probably break if I kept this up.
Looked around, then again at the door.
I noticed the bottom of the door, an area covering about 2/5 of the mass of the door was like an attatched ventillation hatch.
I didn't see that there was any other options.
So, I kicked that bitch with the heel of my boot, and it literally flew off and hit the wall across from it, leaving me to climb out through the hatch.
After extricating myself, I walked back to my seat.
Evidently there's some kind of surveillance system in the outer carriages with the bathrooms, because next thing I know, I'm getting this asshole all up in my face about how I just "decided to smash the door in", so, I corrected him, and said that it was more like smashing it OUT, and attempted to explain the situation.
Apparently there was an emergency button someplace in there...I should have known this, he says...well, forgive me if I've never ONCE seen an emergency button in anything other than a handicapped toilet, and when I'm facing the prospect of being trapped in there for 8 hours, in a tiny space, I'm not ashamed to admit I panicked a little, and did what I had to.
The guy didn't seem willing to accept I'd done it for anything more than just having fun...so I told him that maybe if the bathrooms were better maintained, things like this wouldn't happen...I got told "there's nothing wrong with it", and that my details were gonna be given to the authorities, I was like "fine...run along".
Funny thing is, later on the journey, an announcement was made that an alltogether different bathroom on the train was also broken, and under repair.
Didn't get much attitude after that point.
....so, that was my story. Poor service.
Still, as much as I maintain that it seemed the only option at the time, and I needed to do it, I still kinda liked breaking the door.

I work in a mall and the bathrooms there get really bad... I mean REALLY bad- even though they are cleaned every 2 hours. One time I went in and there was this big lump of brown stuff that's supposed to go inside the toilet- ON THE FLOOR. Not in the stall even- out by the sink.

Vodstok 10-24-2006 05:10 AM

Gee... i cant figure out where wrtiters develope the self-loathign we have for our species that leads us to create horrific end of the world tales and stories of torture and death....


I used to work at a wendy's and had to do the end of the day bathroom clean... Whihc is partially why i only worked there 3 months... the women's bathroom was usually the worst, which i never understood. not that they were piussing on the seats, but they were bigger slobs... which just baffles me.


Cheeba, Australia needs to be more litigious, like America :)

Along with Canada, we're all bastard children of England. Lets unite and SUE EVERYONE FOR EVERYTHING! Yeeha!

Have you ever done something that while you are doing it, you are thinking to yourself "Why amI doing this? Stop it!", but you do it anyway? it was one of those things.
