Guys: Public Bathroom Ediquite

[Dald]

Go into a stall, close the door. Put TP on the seat and then piss on it. Piss on the flush handle. Piss on all the rolls of TP. Blast the door/handle/lock with piss. Kick open the door and leave.

I also find it annoying when people go to normal toilets and leave the door open...my room is next to the bathroom and i have to leave the door open for my cat to get in and out.....my sisters boyfriend wakes up at 5 goes to the toilet and seems to aim for the water to make it sound louder and it smells terrible

[Tasttey]

I avoid public toilets as much as possible, it's usually so disgusting.

So true, however there are a few key things to remember when choosing a public toilet:

1. The frequency in which you'll find male customers within said location. (any place with an automotive and/or tool section is out)
2. The distance of said toilet from the kids clothing section. (right next to kids clothes...no thank you)
3. The general volume of the store. (its a Wednesday afternoon and you've only noticed 3 other customers since you walked in the front door, all good)
4. Whether or not the store is targeted toward the female demographic more heavily than the male. (electronics stores are bad, home decor or housewares are good)

Why is 'Piss in the Sink' an option? Do people actually do this?

I've seen it firsthand; in crowded bars down the shore the sinks get a lot of piss and puke when everything else is occupied.

You'd be surprised...

Anywho, I personally HATE public bathrooms, so I close the door when I go. Um... That is WHEN I go in a public place >.>

This is why when I'm out cycling I just use Mother Nature.

For we are men; the world is our urinal.

[SirRobin]

Personally I don't mind urinals, neither does my seven or four year old. However, for some reason my ten year old hates them and will only use toilets. Meh...

[Temp name]

I almost voted for pissing in the sink for lulz.. But that'd be lying so I didn't. I'm glad I'm not the only one who concidered it though..

[Panquake]

Always close the door if I go in the stall.

Also, when you're firing off a missle, TURN YOUR PHONE TO SILENT. No one wants to hear you playing Doodle Jump or talking on your phone. And please, courtesy flush frequently. You're not paying the water bill, and even if you were, an extra couple of bucks from everyone flushing 2-3 times is more than worth it considering no one wants to stand in the bathroom and inhale the fumes of your greasy dump.

And one final note: just because you're in the bathroom doesn't mean that other etiquette is out the window. Saying "Morning Jim" to the other guy at the urinals and then ripping a fart while you're taking a piss is inappropriate. Pinch it off until you're alone.

There are people at my work who have let off the most stomach turning farts in the bathroom while I was standing there, and I can't look at them with a straight face any longer.

interesting thread. i can't imagine what it must be like to have to whip out your genitals in front of everybody just so that you can pee. that must suck.

[tibben]

I also just let the door do as it pleases. But then, I was in the Army and had to piss into a giant hole in the ground with 5 other dudes standing next to me so I'm pretty used to having zero privacy while urinating.

[Detheavn]

Closing the door if the place isn't too nasty looking. Else keep it open.

Pissing in the sink is reserved for 'special' occasions :3

This really is quite subjective to the area. I've heard some horror stories about women's restrooms that would blow your mind.

Close the door and lock it, otherwise some a*hole is going to kick it open at some point, and you're going to regret it. (I've watched plenty of young males go around thinking they're the top sh* and kick stall doors open, which then hit people who forgot to lock the door.)

Also put the lid up, and leave it up. If someone needs to take a crap then they can put it down. It's better for them to put down a clean seat, then spend 5 mins trying to clean a seat that's been pissed all over.

edit: also the word is etiquette, not ediquite. eti-quette vs edi-quite ediket would have been a closer spelling if you had tried to just sound it out poorly

Its not bad unless its really cold. Then it kind of shrivels up and you have to go on an expedition to find it. Now finding the mountain climbing gear and donkeys isn't too hard. But have you ever tried to find a sherpa in the outskirts of the yakima training center at three in the morning? Not cool...

Amen to that.

I can attest to that. As someone that used to have to clean women's restrooms as duties of several part time jobs I had in high school/college I can tell you that the majority of the crazy nasty shit I saw was in the women's room, not men's.

How does closing the door make it any more nasty? Keeping it open is worse, because then they see you.

[anveena]

I close the door whenever using them.
