Gotta Have a Door by VnutZ :: NR8 :: on 07 January 2008

I don't know how many times I've pushed a half-open door to find somebody hunched over wiping their ass in a public restroom. I know I don't want to be (or see) that guy and always wonder why they don't make an effort to close and lock the door.

I remember one of the bathrooms at Ft. Knox didn't have doors at all. It was easier to just hold it in until night time or use the port-a-johns than deal with a bay full of people watching you take a dump.

The worst ever were separate latrine facilities at Ft. Stewart Georgia. There were about two rows of ten toilets each, back to back, elbow to elbow, no stalls of any kind, all right in front of the sinks and mirrors. On the plus side your buddy might be reading something more interesting than you.

Thomas Crapper would be proud he made the nerd page! by smcbride :: NR6 :: on 07 January 2008

Something about this polls stinks. Thank you Thomas Crapper, I know deep down in my gut you were the man. Your contributions to the plumbing industry are much more than just a fecal myth. (Article) I have found a cadre of Thomas Crapper scholars who have made it their life's work to prove that Crapper is more than just a slang term brought home by the World War I doughboys. I think the late great Thomas Crapper once said "it might be shit to you, but it's my bread and butter."

Not only Seat Cleanliness by milhous :: NR6 :: on 08 January 2008

But also, I look at the bowl itself. If there is any "fecal residue",....next please!

Were you in a palace in Iraq? I figured you would be desensitized to such things by now. :-)
