that's kinda disturbing. You just told the world you took a crap, where it was, and that you're stuck. I guess he was lucky someone didn't just go up there and turn off the light, or throw a bucket of water over the stall.

Lol, if I had twitter I'd have done the same thing. I can't tell you the amount of times I've taken a crap whilst on the phone to someone. Fuck it, if they don't wanna listen they've got a hang up button too!

ugh, gross. I don't talk to people and go to the bathroom. If I'm talking to someone that does it, I'd have no problem hanging up on them.

A wise man checks for paper before sitting down to take a dump.

I find people who talk on the phone while in a public restroom disrespectful. If I go to the ladies room and am using it I don't want whoever that person is talking to hearing me do my business. It's just wrong. And yes being a lady I always try to look before I go and even if I don't I carry emergency supplies in my purse (along with lysol, etc.)

there are times when there are no options, you must go regardless of the existence of toilet paper. Those can be bad times.

lol. Europeans really see Texans as total gun freaks, huh?

Had to google lysol

Oh sorry, yea I am a bit of a freak when it comes to germs. I always carry hand sanitizer, a germ killing spray (which also has the added bonus of a scent for when you walk into a restroom that stinks to high hell) and other things in that neighborhood like tissues. And people wonder why girls' purses weigh so much.

Meh, almost all germs you'll ever encounter only serve the purpose of keeping you immune system on edge. There's nothing wrong with that. In fact, a lot of studies show that excessive germ-evasion leads to all kinds of allergies (especially with children).

Actually I am aware of those studies. But I don't have children and I find I personally stay healthier when I am more aware and proactive against nasty things. I used to get sick very often, but this is a learned behavior which has worked very well for me.

I agree with Arathorn. Not cleaning for ages is bad (dust, mites, etc) but excessive cleansiness can be just as damaging to an immune system, although indirectly. But if it works for you Shiny, so much the better. It's been ages since I've been sick for longer than a day or two. In fact, I'm almost jealous of all those peeps who get the flu and get to stay home for 2 freaking weeks of paid leave. Flu lasts like 3 days tops for me, with maybe one day that I'm so bad that I probably shouldn't go to work. I know everyone here thinks I am the laziest king of the bum slackers, but I actually rarely skip work. So i get jealous when people get to stay at home for 2 weeks for their flu.

Two week for flu. Only in freakin' Europe. I've gotten shit for taking one day off for being sick, though usually only if that day happens to give me a 3-day weekend. Whatever, they can suck it, but still, I've never taken off more than 2-3 consecutive days off for illness. Usually only one.
