How dare a non-customer seek the common dignity of a bathroom in the case of an emergency?

How dare a homeless person use a bathroom to wash up and maintain personal dignity?

Our society spends millions of dollars on bathroom locks,codes, keys, and guards to keep those people from using them. All of that bathroom lock money could curb homelessness.

municipalities should have plentiful public toilets that can be hosed out. cleaning up shit in a place of business is so gross.

sorry Earl, I don't want you barging in while I'm droppin a deuce

They had to start putting codes on the nice, single toilet rooms cause people use them to shoot up. Dunkin Donuts employees up North are practically trained to wait a little bit and then let themselves in to make sure nobody's dying. In fact, public use of heroin is becoming so common that I actually suspect addicts are doing it on purpose in order to test an unfamiliar stash. Like, hoping somebody will find them in case it's stronger than they thought.

It is a pain to have to ask to use the restroom and wait though. And I've noticed Walgreens does it the most, which weirds me out. If anybody should have a freely available and open restroom, it's a pharmacy. People go up in there to get medicine for they tummy troubles and whatnot.

^ this.

People care less about homeless people and more about people ODing in their coffee shop. Also go shit in a Barnes and Noble like everyone else.

Denver has the right idea:

"Viewing public restrooms as a municipal concern rather than placing the entire burden on private businesses highlights what Kniech considers a noticeable shift in the government’s duties. Due to that shift, she and other officials now view public restrooms as essential infrastructure."

Of the places I’ve been in the world, It’s pretty easy to use a toilet in the US when out and about. You have to pay/insert a coin to access bathrooms in most of Europe which is pretty annoying

How dare a homosexual truck driver want to have a place to have gay sex?

When I was a kid I went to use a beach toilet in socal there was a foot long shit standing up out of the toilet sump like a spire and it still haunts me

4/18/2018 3:15:01 PM

I heard about bathrooms in NYC that charge like $0.50 to use. When you leave, the whole thing washes on the inside from top to bottom. Has anyone tried one of these to report back?

After the Clemson fball game I went in a Porta potty by the arena and someone had shit BESIDE the hole. Almost puked

4/18/2018 8:26:56 PM

^^^^ I have not used it but there’s one next to a bus stop I’m at often. They have a time limit and once I saw it open up with someone still on the toilet. All the teenagers at the bus stop lost their minds.

In 2012, I led a team of volunteers on a mission trip to a rural part of the heart of Brazil, and what happened back in those jungles still haunts me to this day.

We landed in Manaus Brazil, our team consisted of 15 people all about the same age (25 - 19), myself included. Then we took two of those minibuses out to some rural villages where there was no running water at all. Fortunately we did not have to sleep on the ground because some German missionaries had built a rudimentary concrete church building in the 1950's.

I've lived most of my life in Canada, but I have been on several mission trips throughout my life, so I like to pride myself on having a stomach of iron. No Hershey squirts in a foreign country for this guy. However, this trip was different. It must have been undercooked pork from the night we arrived in the village, because pretty much everyone got diarrhea the next day.

We may have been in a church built by Germans, but there was no running water, no air conditioning or anything of the sort. However, the people of the village built an outhouse about 50 yards away. This thing was nasty too, flies were all over it in the day time because it was pretty much a pit. And when it rained, which it did often, the palm thatched roof leaked.

So the night of the "incident." It was about 2 AM and pouring rain when I woke up feeling like I was going to explode, I had puked that night but this felt different. My stomach was making all manner of noises a healthy stomach shouldn't make. I got up and put some pants on as quietly as possible so as to not wake anyone else, tiptoed downstairs to the main area of the church. That's when I realised, whether I was ready for it or not, my sphincter was about to dump its contents in about 15 seconds.

I sprinted out church doing the widest "I got poo in my pants" run I could to extend the time of the anal evacuation. I could barely see where I was going because it was raining so hard. The genius part of my brain had me already undoing my jeans as I was running. I also worked out in my head that I was going to be able to make it if I dropped my pants, opened the door and turned around all in the same moment upon entry. I did exactly that, but it wasn't enough. Mid air through the jump I shot a gas charged explosive into the outhouse, completely missing the seat. I kind of stood there in a moment of defeat, then heard a blood curdling scream.

I turned around and saw one of the volunteers absolutely coated in excrement. My excrement. She had gotten the same stomach bug I had, must have woken up before me with the same horrible thing. Only she had made it, and I didn't.

Needless to say, she flew out back home the next day.

That was the worst feeling I have ever felt in my life. I would rather poop my pants in front of a crowd while giving a speech, than relive the embarrassment of that night.

I couldn't imagine what went through that poor girl's head as the door flew open, a random dude jumped out of the jungle, then pooped all over her. If you're reading this, I hope you forgive me.

I stopped here. No one lists an age range like that.

I stopped when I saw it said BigMan, and travel.

there are no doors or windows on my house, i don't know how to leave

4/19/2018 1:10:34 PM

It's like the Sims where you went upstairs then someone deleted the stairs.

Or a pile of garbage is blocking the door and you don't know how to deal with it.
