I had the ultimate walk of shame a couple of weeks ago. Our employee toilet is an area where most of the work activity with customers occurs. Imagine standing around and hearing a toilet flush a couple of times. The poo wasn't going down. Walk of shame 1 walking out with poop still afloat. Walk of shame 2 finding a plunger in another area, then taking said plunger across the room with customers watching. Plunging with another couple flushes, poop finally goes down. Then walking back out for my final walk of shame.

I hate going into a stall and seeing poop splattered on the back of the bowl. Lots of times its all the way up to and even on the rim under the seat. I think this would be called an A$$PLOSION...

Has anyone ever attempted a courtesy flush and had one of those Tsunami Bowls spray a load of crap up on you? You know, those turbo bowls that could suck down a 27lb turd no problem. It's never happened me, but one in an airport came close once. I thought that would have probably ended my business trip early.

I don't get the courtesy flush. It's fine that you want to flush after each plop, but who wants to risk moistening the vulnerable areas?

I had one of those in my college dorm room one year.. I used to joke that it would just suck the poop right out of you. LMAO (I never attempted it though)

I too used to not to like to poop at work. The whole non-privacy thing bothered me, as well as the "am I going to sit on the seat that the guy before me sat on or pissed on?" So I would do the toilet paper on the seat thing....

Then as luck would have it, they moved us to a new location, and the 4th floor bathroom is a thing of wonder! It has windows, bright light, a beautiful view of the city, and most importantly it seems as though no one knows about this bathroom! So, I go into the stall, close the door and glory to my eyes there's one of those dispensers that have the paper seat cover things!

This is good. I'm happy.

One question though.

What is the proper use of these paper seat covers? There is a section at the front that is slightly cut, but not all the way! Am I supposed to tear this off so I have easier "access" for cleaning up? Or is it there to somehow protect me?

Don't cut the seat cover all the way, I think the portion is supposed to hang there so that the poo poo slides down it gently so it doesn't splash all the water back up to the butt. The water looks clean, but is it really?

Maybe this will help with those of you who have poop issues. I work from my house so no shy-sh***ing for me. This is just too funny to keep to myself.
Read the "procedure" page and the "FAQ".

actually, i think it's the other way, so the almost cut end hangs over the lip of the bowl, so there's no inadvertant contact between the bowl and mr. winky.
