bathroom etiquette
previous conversations with guys regarding bathroom etiquette have "educated" me on these following rules:
1) guys should not talk to other guys while peeing at the urinal
2) peeing at least one urinal away is optimal
3) no eye contact should be made while peeing
4) passing gas while peeing should not be tolerated
how true are these "rules"? and...what are the consequences if they are not followed?
for us girls, I think the conditions are a little bit different. it becomes a matter of "tact". for example, I personally do not believe in bathroom conversation. if you are sitting in the next stall to your buddy, wait until you've exited the stall to talk about last night's dinner plans/your stupid boyfriend. is there really such an urgency that you need to speak while peeing?
another thing...cell phone conversations in the stall is a big nono. who would want to talk with someone on the other line "taking care of business"? (don't tell me if you are one of these people...I don't need to know). unless the situation is life-threatening, e.g your diarrhea is a sign of oncoming doom, don't make phone calls while on the john!
alright...I've opened up the doors to the bathroom...it's your turn to share your opinion!

by the by, i can't introduce clod to amos lee - he's engaged :D
Having an intellectual or artistic dry spell for topics, that's okay, you're entitled to, once in a while :>.
Question in reverse.
1. Do you ladies line the toilet seat with toilet paper?
2. Do you just use those thigh muscles and squat?
3. What if you HAVE to go #2?
4. What if you realize afterwards, there is no toilet paper, dispenser ran out?
Would appreciate your reflections on the female etiquette.
bathroom etiquette for the ladies...
I'd like to share a cultural phenomenon
from the land of the rising sun
Apparently, the females there are so keen as not to let other people hear their "trickling of the ... you know what"
the Japanese has come up with a device that plays the sounds of babbling brook, etc, etc, etc (sorry, just watched the King and I)
whenever someone's in the stall doing their business
the purpose is to cover up the real sounds of trickling
public bathrooms, most likely found in department stores, etc
I myself have never seen one or used one
but imagine being embarassed by something like that!
yes, and no talking on the phone while peeing
sorry, dragging on so long
Dear PJ,
The answer to all of your questions is, using public bathrooms is deplorable and to be avoided at almost any cost.
And girls ALWAYS check for TP before going. We're not crazy.
jr, you know and i know that someone we know has the habit of talking on the phone while doing their business. i guess that individual feels it's the perfect opportunity to multitask...*_*;
i've always wondered whether the person on the other line knows what's going on... afterall, wouldn't the conversation be kinda... mmm.. echoey? and when does the person flush? wait 'til the conversation ends? when business is done? or not flush at all?!?
i know a person who dropped his cellphone in the toilet... and yes, he fished it out.
