I don't shock easily but every now and then I am totally appalled at some things that occur in the woman's bathroom....I won't go into gory details.

Anyway I am in there washing my hands and this woman who I work with walks in, closes the stall door and says "sorry about what you're about to hear" she slams herself down on the toilet (severely obese, not that there's anything wrong with that) and lets one rip like i have never heard before.

seriosuly, do people have no shame?!?!?!? I almost died. :eek:

    that's quite the visual. i guess i shouldn't be surprised at that anymore, but i'd think most people would go in quietly, meet with client number 2 and then wait until the office was empty so nobody knows it's them taking care of business..

    4 stalls. I am sitting in 1. The other 3 are empty. Guy walks in and sits in the empty one right next to me. Ugh.

    What makes it worse: when he then gives *me* the silent treatment. I.e. the whole "who can out-silent the other guy so the other guy gives up and flushes and leaves, only to come back 15 mins later").

    Boooooooo.

    Don't even get me started on the conversation-starter-while-using-the-urinal-next-to-you ettiquette breacher. One-upped only by the guy who talks to you and ALSO proceeds to look at you the whole time.

    Get a clue folks. Common ettiquette.

    It is a good thing I was not drinking my coffee when I read that, or I would have done the best spit take. I think that is the funniest thing I have read in awhile. I think the cherry on top would have been if another person came in and engaged in a farting duet with the first person a la Family Guy:

  • i've always thought it was funny that people are embarassed to fart in public except in the bathroom! i guess its only embarassing if the opposite sex is around or something.

    We have numerous bathrooms through out the building, but in our secured area, there is only a single bathroom for ladies and one for men. What do you guys think about a person that waits for someone to come out of the bathroom.

    I just find it rude. You walk out and someone is standing there waiting. Walk down the hall, exit the door and go to one of the 100 other bathrooms in the building.

    That's what I do if this one is occupied.

    my line for the smells and sounds of the work restroom:

    "you really need to see a doctor about that problem"

    :)
  • kind of unrelated, but my floor is about 90% men and the floor below is about 90% women, so its kind of an unwritten rule that you pee in our floor's bathroom and do #2 downstairs (for toilet seat cleanliness downstairs and to keep the smell out upstairs).

    to break this law is unwise.

    this is a really fuuny very thread....crapping at work sucks. I hate crapping when someone else is in the room, my dog and cat included.

    Sometimes just to piss off my wife I will walk in when she is dropping the kids off at the pool. she hates it and gets so mad. i tell her to lock the door if she doesnt want me walking in.

    I guess this is what happens when you start off your day every morning with one of those big gulps full of soda :eek:
  • Haha, i has this conversation with someone last week.

    I am not a work defecator. It's always weird when someone goes in the bathroom and comes out 15 minutes later. They know that YOU know what they were doing and it's just...awkward. Not to mention, sometimes the smell that people leave is unbearable. And even though we all leave rancid smells from time to time, i don't want to be known as "the girl who left the gross stench that time"

    I'd rather hold it until i get home, thanks.

    Our office boss unleashes hell in our men's room. If I see him go in there, I hold it for at least an hour.

    Best time to go...230pm.
    I love to turn you on

    That would make a great country song. I can hear Carrie Underwood, Faith Hill, The Dixie Chicks, Hank Williams Jr. singing:

    i will never understand.......:o



    and i have to agee about the leainvg 'space' between stalls when possible. i mean truly, wtf? i think women in general have much more 'shy' habits when it comes to such things, but absolutely...there ARe scary exceptions.

    overall, outside the cell phone thing...our office restroom etiquette is in pretty damn fine form, as are the restrooms themselves, so it's good.

    Ewww. Once in my dorms I went to the communal bathroom stall in the hall and there was, shall we say a 'mess' all over the toilet, floor and walls around it. I have no idea how that could have happened, like someone just backed up to the toilet standing there and bent over. We had a rather 'large' guy living in one of the dorms there, whom I always figured was the culprit. I just can't understand how that can happen and you just walk off and leave it for someone else.

    OK, here is verse 1

    I woke up this morning feeling bloated with gas
    I knew it was time for a load to pass
    so I grabbed my cigarettes
    brewed some bean
    headed off to the latrine
    while singing this song

    It's threads like these that make the pit so damn awesome...

    I have a buddy (who will go unidentified as he posts on here...) who can do things to a toilet you couldn't imagine. At his old work, he would go to OTHER PEOPLE'S FLOORS to do his business. Then return to his office on his floor. Truly a sick fuck...

    As a sidenote, he wants to start a website called awaydumps.com or something like that. Basically a datebase of good toilets to use in public.

    Thanks again for this thread!

    I have been in a restroom when this woman that works in an office down the hall came in there and started going "OH my oh nooo OH Dear God! Uhhhh...oh no..noooo...*sniffle* oh..oh Excuse me oh no...uh oh!" the excuse me line was when I asked her if everything was alright...

    all of that was accompanied by a LOT of very loud "dirt bomber" booming farts...and some lighter wet and squishies...

    I was so embarrassed and sad for her...she sounded so upset about what whas coming out of her butt.


    I think she was burping at the same time.
