it's all about perspective
i don't know about you but i don't usually SIT when using public restrooms. i'll spare you the details. but you have to admit there is a LOT of bacteria in those places crawling everywhere.
over the weekend i was at work and went into the ladies room to do my business. that's when it happened-the perspective changing that is- the toilet seat was up. now, typically i relate the "up" position of the seat to some moron man who forget to put the seat down. translation: it could be a messy corner of the room, and floor for that matter (and who wants to actually touch the top of the seat anyway?).
but there i was looking at the situation and i realized something. there probley wasn't a guy who last came in, it was the cleaning lady. translation: this is the cleanest seat around.
so, i sat. and that was that.
talk about a paradigm shift.

whenever I poop in a public place I like to make lots of loud grunting sounds, as well as squeals of pleasure. it's awesome.
also, when using a urinal, it's great fun to drop pants and underwear to the ankles and stand there like a 3-year old, bottom exposed. it's best if the restroom is really crowded, really funny if you are with your friends.
all this is really awkward if you are in a restroom by yourself, or with only one other person who you don't know.
that or it was a cross-dresser and he/she/it peed on the seat. i'm not as optimistic as you.
by the by...i love chicago. my wife did her nursing preceptorship there and has always wanted to live there. we're toying with the idea.
"hyperlink tutorial"
here's your syntax:
[a href="www.blah.com"]Whatever you want to label your link goes
here[/a"]
I had to change the tag characters or else it would have just shown up as a link so:
replace [ with <
replace ] with >
internet rules!
i just realized you meant links on your blog page and not just hyperlinks inside your posts...silly me.

I had an epiphany last time I used a public restroom. I was in an airport and the shitty (pun intended) thing about airport toilet lounges is that they are filled with travelers at all times of the day.
So, I sat down and mentally prepared for the next 5-10 minutes of supressing noises and grunts when I got a call from my wife. I answered it and proceeded to have a very normal conversation about traveling and airports and oboes and racket balls. It was as if I were the only person in the world pooping into a toilet bowl.
My wife hates it when I poop while speaking with her on the phone. Small price to pay though to poop in social solitiude.
As a male, I have to point out that I've used a women's restroom on more than one occasion. Sometimes it's just more convenient. And women's restrooms are often much nicer, and cleaner, than men's ones.
My, my. You've got quite a popular post here.
I've never understood why it has to be solely the moron male's responsibility to put the seat up to pee AND then back down again. I say that if a female sits down without checking first to see if the seat is up or not, she's the moron.
y'alls responses have cracked me up. i think ppl secretly want to talk about bowel movements (especially BM: Brian Murphy). but Mr. waspjerky gets the prize for being the true Alpha Male in the bunch:)
(oh and thanks for the link advice)
Yeah, weird things always happen to me in bathrooms. A while back it was someone crawling underneath my stall while I was sitting there doing my thing. Apparently the locked door wasn't enough of a tipoff. Today someone started talking to me in Spanish, while I was sitting there doing my thing. I should have retained more from ninth grade with Mr. Watenbarger.
bonita - low blow. please use the T when referring to me in the future. it's very important to me.
and yes I like to talk about pooping.
Geez, after the poop holes in Africa, I can poop ANYWHERE! Who cares if people hear your plops and farts. They are just not mature enough to appreciate the true humor of the moment. Next time I hear someone crapping, I'll be sure to cheer them on with some sort of rhyming chant so that they can have a fun story to tell their friends. Wouldn't that be awesome?
P-O-O-P
Don't forget the initial flush for curtesy!
Spraaaaaaaaaay Lysol!
Oh, I absolutely LOVE Chris, too, but I think Katherine will be the best vocal in a recording studio. He is totally fabulous, though. Too bad he's gone now. Oh well!
