... is finding a toilet with the lid closed.

You know it isn't going to end well. Odds are, someone left a nasty surprise that's a little too big for where it currently is.

One time, on top of the usual messy surprise, I found a dead Garter snake lying in wait for the lid to be opened.

I posted on Facebook the other day that nothing gives you a more comforting feeling than finding a large, isolated public bathroom where the toilet lid is up and it's full of blue water.

The best strategy is to hang a sign on the door of your favorite stall at work that says "Out of Order". Then nobody will use it but you :)

That's not a bad idea! :D

That's one thing I like about working here at the hospital, the washrooms are clean. They have ant infestations, but I can live with that.

We keep the lids on ours closed to keep the dogs and cat out, not to keep any nasties in.

Where I work a buddy went into the bathroom and someone had actually left some doodoo on the toilet seat. What some people will do is just gross.

On a similar note, I was working offsite for 2 weeks, working at a temporarty office complex of sorts. The janitorial staff there was less than thorough and would leave about 2 rolls of toilet paper for an entire week. Roughly 20 people in the building...you do the math.

So, everyone would hide the toilet paper in various places in this large restroom. In the drop ceiling, behind the water heater, under the sink, behind the garbage pail.

My hiding place lasted for 3 days. I put it UNDER the garbage bag, INSIDE the pail. I had lovely ass-paper for three days before someone found it and found a better hiding place than mine. :(

I wouldn't know that fear, when in a public bathroom I only use a urinal unless ABSOLUTELY necessary. Shitting in public is disgusting.

So is an impacted bowel and crapping your pants. Good luck with your surgery, Mr. Anal Rententive Guy.

No, I think I just actually have great control, unless I'm sick I don't even feel the urge unless it's a specific time, usually at night before I go to bed.

In my whole life I don't think I've crapped in a public restroom more than 10 times.

Update on snake fear:

http://mobile.thestar.com/mobile/NEWS/article/1100991

Snake slithers into Brampton bathroom


A small snake decided to claim Dalwood Arian?s toilet as its own Monday night.

The creature appeared to have come out of the toilet, said Arian who noticed it when he went to use the washroom in his Brampton house.

Animal control was reportedly unavailable until Tuesday, so Arian phoned the police to take care of his unwelcome guest.

Police responded within the hour to the house on Derwent Ave. near Main St. and Steeles Ave. E.

?It?s not that big of a deal, just kind of creepy and interesting,? said Arian.

the toilets here at work don't have lids, seats only so you can tell if it one you want to use right away. and for the most part there are no morons who leave the toilets nasty.

I hate when that happens, especially when your own ass is about to explode in a raging feces volcano, and you end up doing that akward squatting thing hovering a couple of inches over the seat, and when you wipe your ass the first time you pray to god that paper comes back clean so you can get back up from this kama sutra position from hell.

After a two week vacation, that must be one hell of a homecoming dump.
