Some people don't flush. Sh1t, you find out the hard way. You'd be in there and you'd hear someone come in, do it, and then leave. You don't hear flush or faucets running. Yea, I can recognize what shoes/sandals yer wearing. The main reason this one guy in the dorms got rejected by almost everyone when people were grouping up for apartments next year. I feel kinda bad that I'm the one that got it out that he didn't flush, #1 or #2, but then I'd feel even worse for the people who'd have to live with him.
 
Many women don't want to sit on the seat of a public toilet, so they squat above it AND MISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So when the next person (me, of course) comes in there is piss everywhere: seat floor, etc. Sometimes it is even worse. Because there are signs saying "don't throw maxi pads into the toilet" some people think that sticking a USED one on the wall is an excellent way of disposing of it.

The only thing that makes a women's restroom less vile is that (even the dirtier ones) do not have that bizarre man urine scent. I think it must have been used to mark territory ages ago by warding other creatures away 😛
 
well......my neighbours are fuc*king like for months now !!
And there are so many guys that I have lost count :

I have heard so much nonsense and seen so much that it doesn't bother me that much !
But ,

It was horrible when I had just broken off cos' of shi*t like this !!


They are 3 girls in that forbidden apt.
 


<< Anyway, there was this time when some drunks f*d up the bathroom pretty bad after a night of partying/drinking/whatnot and there were no toilet stall doors the entire week. So what do the geniouses among our floor do? They go sh!t in the shower stall. My roommate was the lucky one to discover that. I never wore sandals in the shower and never had a problem, but I realize how nasty it was now. Too late. Anyway... I agree about the hair thing all over the sinks too. How about wads of wet toilet paper all over the mirrors and floors. My roommate actually felt bad enough for the janitor that he wrote a note expressing his thanx to the janitor and that not all of us on that floor act like that. I think a few people actually went up to sign the thing. Seriously though, I'm sure somehow that dry dorms (if there are any anymore) would have less bathroom havoc. >>



We had the same exact thing happen to our floor, up to and including this note to the housekeeping staff. We later found out the guys who trashed our floor's bathroom lived one floor above and were too sh*tfaced to realize the bathroom they were vandalizing wasn't theirs. Go figure.



<< I went to school in upstate NY... and I'll keep it anonymous just because. >>



Too bad your resume gives it away. 😛
 


<< i hear ya on this one...

my freshman year at ucla some person on the floor actually took a facking dump in one of the shower stalls...
ok really now im done 😉
>>



lol Same here... second weekend here, someone pooped in the shower stall... most disgusting thing I've ever seen. I still refuse to use that stall.

I have more stories I could tell, but I'm going to eat lunch in a few minutes.
 
> Heh...coed bathrooms are the worst. Don't be fooled into thinking that girls aren't stinky
hmm.. bathroom fantasy ?

anyway, make a trip to china...
and u know what I am talking about

dorm bathroom in the states is nothing compared to those in china...

ewwww....😛
 
On our floor, there was one restroom with 3 toilet stalls (small college). More often than not, you would go in and two of them would be unusbale due to people not flushing. One person going in, taking a dump, and not flushing is bad enough, but who are these freaking idiots who take a dump on top of that withour flushing first? Anyway, after a half-dozen morons like that, the toilet would be completely off-limits. After a while, building maintenance got tired of it, so they stopped stocking the restroom with toilet paper. Sure put a stop to the problem.

(Fortunately, I was friends with a custodian in another building, and she smuggled me a stash for my personal use.)
 
Never had the luxury of needing to clean my own toilet... yet. 😉 Ugh... owning a house must suck big time.
 
on my friend's wing (he was an RA) there was a phantom crapper who would go in at the beginning of the weekend and leave perfect logs on the toilet seat which had to be cleaned up.
 
My floors' bathroom last year (I stay in a different dorm now, where 4 people share a bathroom) wasn't that bad. There was a cleaning staff that cleaned the actual toilets every morning and the showers every week or so (but you still had to wear sandals unless you were goofy or something). There were sinks, but there was no soap, so you had to walk back to your room and wash your hands in the sink there. And there were no doors, so there was no problem with touching the dirty handles. The only bad thing about it, really, was the fact that there was no ventilation system built in since the dorm was built at the end of the 50s, so they had big windows with grates over them for provacy, but they still let in air. That bathroom was miserable at the beginning and the ends of the year (this is in South Carolina) and during January, February, etc. The shower was the worst. Showering at 7 AM with a window open letting in 30 degree air. You learn to shower and dry really quickly. But overall, it was kept fairly clean and wasn't too bad to use.
 
HJahaha ahh yes, this definately brings up dorm memories.

What I like the most is when the school shut off water to the bathrooms/showers and neglected to tell the students.

Hahah so I had to use bottled water to brush my teeth.....lol.
