Toilet Ettiqute

[eyebrows]

After reading a post below i have a question of my own...

You really need to poo, and you go into teh the toilet, and there is a cleaner in there, cleaning teh toilet next door, or teh urinals, or floor outside etc etc....whatever...

do you still go poo, or fake out and wee, and go back 10mins later?

How spooky!

Just had this conversation with a colleague who thinks I'm nuts because if I walk into the ladies at work and any of the cubicals are occupied, I leave again until it's completely empty.

A couple of time I've been followed into the toilets, so I pretend I'm just going to wash my hands.

I don't like to pee while colleagues are in earshot. I NEVER do a number 2 at work.

You've got serious hang ups with your bodily functions, Lakitu.
I'm curious as to what you think of other people who do use the toilet whilst you are there.

I would guess you don't have children.

I dont like to go at work if I can help it. But a cleaner in public toilets wouldnt bother me, she doesnt know me and what she gonne do complain that I had a number 2?? I just cant go for a wee in a toilet without a lock not unless someone I really trust can hold door for me. And also if anyone stays on my spare bed (just outside toilet door) I have to run taps so they cant hear my wee pattern lol

I get stage fright in urinals. If someone stands next to me I can pee. But I have no hangups going to the loo at work. If I can hold it I will wait until I get home, but if I need to go, I'll take a dump on my desk if I have to.

I have only ever squatted once in a field and never again. I was wearing a nuns costume and it went all over the back of it. Also an old friend of mine used to go down to a field near his car at glasto because he didn�t like toilets there, one day when we went back to car the field was occupied so he had a poo next to car into a ginsters sausage roll packet, I heard it crinkle into it and everytime I see a ginsters I am reminded.

lol ethel, i had 2 kids and hangups!

i cant go to the loo on a plane! its the thought of everyone on there knowing im off for a pee. yes i know they couldnt give a stuff but it bothers me.

I have even flown to america 3 times (6 x 9hr flights) without once going in an airplanes loo

[4getmenot]

yer I remember them loos well redcrx spent half the flight being sick in them

[redcrx]

^^ another good reason for me to have avoided them!

But the question says ...

... you really need to poo.

Obviously if you've just popped in coz you might fancy one, then you might wait.

But what if you really needed one.

Like, turtle head ??

[Lakitu]

LOL Ethel, I know they know what I'm doing, I just don't want them hearing it where possible.

I don't go to the toilet on planes either. I have flown 12 hour journeys heaps of times and not once have I used the loo on the plane.

[4getmenot]

3 times??

[redcrx]

yes 3 times 4get, we all left you with nan once (think youd been naughty) and had a fortnight in disney without you!

[4getmenot]

you all said because I'd been good I could have a holiday at nans :-(

[~spaced~]

if i get a turtle head I just push that bad boy right back in

[funnygirl]

Here at work, we have a male toilet cleaner who does the rounds.

If he is in there and I wanna wee, I just go and do it or otherwise wait!!

If you are already in there and he comes, he just give one knock and says he is coming in regardless!!!!

Some girls hate it!!

[4getmenot]

Oh and windows with no blind. Aaaaargggh. Even if they are frosted I dont want people seeing the silouette of my bum

[warpig3]

LOL, aren't people weird and wonderful!

I avoid going for a no 2 when at work unless absolutely necessary and if someone else is in the loos I will chuck some toilet paper down first to 'dull' the sound.

Also I will never take the toilet next to another that is occupied, again unless absolutely necessary.

[redcrx]

downstairs loos. i hate thought that people could be walking past lol.
i usually run upstairs rather than use ours which has window next to front door

[andrea81]

Don't you hate it when you go to the loo and you go into a toilet that someone has had a poo and as you turn around to come out (as you don't fancy using that toilet) you feel you have to explain to others behind you that it wasn't you who did it!

[joggerjayne]

Lakitu, I'm with you on the noise thing.

If you go somewhere where people are outside, and you perhaps allow a small fartette so accompany your movement, I always think I'm going to open the door and everyone's going to be staring at you.

I'd love to have the nerve to come out wafting my butt, and loudly say "Whooah, I'd give it five minutes if I were you!!"
