I just continue doing my thing. I'm there for one purpose and I'm not satisfied till it's done :)

Maybe I would be loud but I don't think I could keep the laughter in.

Just dont stand up and proclaim something like "2 sinkers and 3 floaters!"

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!
I now have a new mission next time I go to the bathroom in a public stall!!!

Oh, and my response to this question is in this thread. I would assume that's also where dparker got the idea for this thread

I can't go in front of people... period. I think it stems from an incident when I was 19 when a couple of black guys started joking around about how I was more hung than they were at one of those "tub" urinals when I was in school. It was really embarrasing... they started harrasing me while in mid stream so I couldn't just walk away. Since then, I can't go at all if someone else is in the bathroom :(

We couldnt stop laughing.

I feel a little pressure to go into stealth mode but I basically just do my thing. However, I do enjoy my privacy!

If I'm in a stall and there's someone in the bathroom, I try to avoid making amusing bodily function noises.Otherwise, if I'm at home, it's open season. :D

I try to be as quite as possible and not make any loud splashes. From another thread others have commented that placed in a similar situation they tend to make as much noise as possible. Which category do you fall under?
LOL!

Yep, same here.

The trick is to FLUSH the toilet right when you either FART or when the shiznit is coming out. This accomplishes several things:

1. It covers any embarrassing noises you make.
2. It gets rid of the bio-load stinking up the restroom.
3. It helps to stop clogging up the toilets.
