Don't You Hate It When.......

[Jethers203 0]

You are in a public restroom taking your time, quietly going about your business, maybe playing a cell phone game, and someone comes in, not knowing you are there and they shut the light off when they leave?

This has happened to me 3 damn times and it is starting to get really annoying. The 1st 2 times were both at the DZ and I was trying to lose some weight so I wouldn't go low on the formation (just a joke) and some punk shuts the light off. Now, it would be cool if there was a window or something, but I was in complete darkness. If it wasn't for the light from my cell phone that I was playing a game on, I would have been screwed. I thought about calling the DZ and asking someone to turn the light on in the Men's bathroom, but that would have just ben awkward.

The 3rd time happened today at my University. So I find this nice clean bathroom in an area where noone ever is. Within minutes, the custodian (not even a guy in a guys restroom) comes in and sprays this hideous smelling shit that made me gag and then turned the light off and shut the door. So I was trapped and ready to pass out in complete darkness.

All I can say is that it would really suck to be blind and have to use the "facilities". I managed to do it 3 times, but a whole lifetime would be rough.

PS: To all you people who shut off lights. . . . . That just isn't cool.

You should learn the courtesy cough. Or the foot tap works well also.

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

Hmmmm.....

Might I suggest finding a safe haven? If you don't have one, the camo cough works well.

Edit - Whoops. For those of you who don't have or use MS word, here's a clicky.

Not as bad as my bathroom story...last time I used a publc bathroom some dude sat in the stall next to me. All of a sudden he said "hey man how's it going" I'm not one to talk when using the sh*tter, but I said "not bad" anyway. Then he said "So what you up to?" Continuing the conversation I said "Sounds like the same thing you're doing." At that point the dude (apperantely on a cell phone) said "Hold on one second, some dumbass next to me thinks I'm talking to him"

After that YOU should wait untill the lights are off to get out of the bathroom...

Hey...ho...let's go!

Sorry, but that is funny though I can see how you wouldn't think so. ROFLMFAO!

No, I know it is funny. I just thought I could share a funny story with everyone here. I will definitely try the cough/foot tap next time.

Why, doesn't your cell phone have a light on it?

[JohnRich 4]

Another hazard in this arena is those electricty-saving light timers. The last place I worked had motion detectors on the bathroom lights. When you enter, the lights come on, and then stay on for about 5 minutes.

Well... if you're in a stall and things are taking longer than usual, the lights go out on you, and you're stuck in the dark. Throwing things over the wall won't make the lights come back on - they need a heat source. You've got to waddle out into the open to trigger the lights, and then waddle back to finish your business.

Fun stuff.

BAD idea. VERY BAD idea. Imagine YOU getting that call at the DZ. Consider all the wonderfully mischevious things you could to so so helpless a person... no skydiver in the WORLD could resist.

This is one of the funniest damn things I've ever read.

Oh, along the same lines as the "courtesy cough" or the foot tapping, loudly unrolling a bit of the TP works well for a warning that a stall is in use.
