Call me crazy, and call me paranoid . . .
But I'm just not comfortable when I use a restroom, and it smells, well, like the smell of human excrement that's gone stale after being the air for too long. And then I turn around and see a sign like this on the inside of the door:
As people always seem to in horror movies, I had one of those irresistible impulses -- coupled with an inner voice telling me Not To Do It -- to look inside the trash can. Yes, it contained what I thought it would. (And yes, I'm afraid it was in New Jersey. Sorry; I know the whole state isn't like that.) I tried not to touch the doors, and I ran out of the bathroom without daring to wash my hands. posted by Eric on 10.13.05 at 11:08 PM

The shittiest post ever, if I may say so myself! Eric Scheie · October 13, 2005 11:59 PM A lot of places in Asia with unreliable old plumbing (even, until a few years ago, some venerable Tokyo department stores) have little wastebaskets in the toilets and signs reminding you that you can't flush the toilet paper.

John · October 14, 2005 08:46 AM Eeewww! So. Did everything come out okay? Bonnie · October 14, 2005 08:52 AM Duty called! And I had no idea what I was getting into. By the time I saw the sign, I was engaged in the business at hand. But then another form of duty called -- a duty to document the horror. I stopped breathing through my nose, whipped out my cell phone, and did the best I could under very trying circumstances. Eric Scheie · October 14, 2005 09:38 AM We don't want to hear about your dooty. John · October 14, 2005 08:57 PM Excrement.
