A Potty Post

I do not like public restrooms. I use them because I have to, but would prefer to wait - if I can - until I can be in the comfort of my own home. There is one particular part of the whole public restroom scene that really bothers me. It doesn't matter how clean or filthy the restroom may be, this problem still happens.

It bothers me very much when I enter a stall that someone has just finished using, and let's just say the person who just left also left quite an odor behind. It's usually my luck that this is the only stall available. I hold my breath as long as I can and don't dare inhale through my nose until I can get out of this confined smell-hole. But then I always think, "The next person who uses this stall after me is going to think I did this." I'm sure you've probably had this thought a time or two in your life. Kudos to the nice places that provide enough "good smells" to cover up the foul odors.

womens public restrooms are the nastiest because you figure any woman who would actually use a public restroom is having some sort of emergency. Under normal circumstances she'd just wait till home.

I was at Mcdonalds one time...and one of the workers came out of the stall before I went in. She had the nastiest BO I have ever experienced. It was awful. I came out to be greeted by..you guessed it...the person waiting to use my stall next. I'm pretty sure I washed my hands, tried not to make eye contact so she wouldn't see my face, and grabbed Dave and left so that way when she came out of the bathroom she wouldn't be able to point out the "smelly girl" to her significant other.
