The first one is when I was 15-16 working at a fast food place. One of my tasks was to clean the restrooms. One day, I was out scrubbing the brick floor outside on the patio when an old man came up to me and said there was a huge mess in the men's bathroom. Thanking myself for not eating yet, I walked in wondering what I would find. My first thought was a stopped up toilet that had overflowed, or possibly kids in there with toilet paper everywhere. When I opened the door though, it appeared to be spotless. No tp anywhere. Whew! I walk over to the stall, perfectly clean. So, I thought maybe he meant the ladies room. I knocked first, then opened the door, nothing. I walk back in the men's room and then I see it. In the urinal, someone had gone number two in the place where you're supposed to go number one!!!! Who DOES that? To this day, I wonder how they did it. I mean, this urinal is placed pretty high up, it would take a man over 6' to do it comfortably. Maybe they went in the stall, picked it up and placed it in the urinal? *barf* My second one was when I was about 24, working for Intuit. I went to use the employee bathroom and noticed a "dirty magazine" in the stall. As I got closer there seemed to be a *cough* foreign substance on the toilet seat. Honestly....who does that? At work??? I guess some people take nooners any way they can. :p I have two experiences that I’d like to share regarding public bathrooms.

A bit militant for a girlie bathroom, doncha think? :D Turnea, your comment reminded me of when I was in college. There was this stall in one of the buildings where someone had taken the liberty to write "What God Wants, God Gets." Someone below that finished with "God help us all." There was something special about that stall and I alway made a point of using it knowing it had been the chosen spot for two other Roger Waters fans. Nice one, Titus.

The men's room in the library for instance has a sign reading. "Our aim to to maintain functional and sanitary restroom facilities." Below that is a student's impromptu addendum. "Your aim helps too" Kill them with comedy. It always makes me laugh to see what people write in the restrooms around here.
