Sounds like your restaurant might have a shit problem. Who goes out to eat and reeks up the bathroom?

That is precisely why I go out to eat, I don't want to disrespect my own home, I want to go to DeepChicago's restaurant and burn a mule in his place, use up the TP and walk away without flushing. It's called leaving a legacy.



Off topic, when are you having me over to your place for some sous-vide smoke combo? I'll eat those ribs, drink that beer and in a couple hours ask to be excused and just destroy the facilities. You will have to have the site declared toxic and move. Looking back I guess that was pretty on topic.

THIS. I make it a point at my restaurant whenever I'm in there cleaning something or TCOB, to say "Courtesy Flush Please." The guests can't see me so whatever. I mean, why would you sit over a bowl of shit for 10 minutes. Flush it so you don't stink and so you don't stink up the restroom. Disgusting!

I will never understand why someone would sit on the toilet that long. I'm a get in and get out type of guy.

"How are you today?"
Look- you dont really give a shit, and if I dumped all my problems out as a response or went on about something exciting, you would probably want to crush my skull to make me stop.

I know right hahaha.

Whenever someone at works asks, I say, "It's (inset day here)." Tone and inflection is different for each day.

The fact that you are expected to purchase something from a gas station or convenience store when you use the bathroom there. You should be honored I selected your business to do my business, especially if you're in some small shithole town in the middle of nowhere.

I bet if a study was done it’s cause of smart phones

Even before smartphones, people would read newspapers or magazines and I just never understood the appeal to taking a shit and sitting over top of it while you read lmao.

Nothing like a giant poopy flush splash to make you feel so fresh and so clean...

Agree. Like a pack of mints, or gum, or bottle of water is going to break him! They have over head and water/sewage are some of that over-head. Maybe he’d be cool with a stranger coming and dropping a deuce at his place without so much as a thank you?

Not worth it then.

The issue is if you don't have a volunteer you have to get someone from a management company as an example, play that person, and have higher monthly association fees albeit for everyone.

Agreed...so I answer honestly and love to watch them squirm...

"How are you today?"
"Capable of taking the life of a fellow human being..."

Burque beat me to it. Backsplash sucks. If the toilet is poorly designed the last thing I want is a shitwater enema.

And if you don’t want to buy something, go to a hotel. They all have restrooms and are clean. Walk in like you are a guest and you can avoid buying a bottle of water.

This is more of a life hack vs social norm....

Not a "social norm" per se, but something I occasionally do that gives me a laugh....

Holding a door open when the person I am holding it for is uncomfortably far away.

There is a certain radius that one is expected to hold a door open for another person coming in behind them.
I like to extend the radius to about twice the size, watch the look of puzzlement and horror as the person realizes I am waiting for them to approach, and watch them pick up the pace to get to the door sooner so I dont have to stand and wait.
It can be amusing.

It does not matter the distance, if I hold the door to our office seeing someone approach, they run like I might murder them if they don't.

I think I give off mean vibes lol.
