[sniffa]

Poll question: do you make a "courtesy fLush"?

god damn! i hate it when peopLe don't make the "courtesy fLush" - one of my coworkers Left a present in the bathroom. it's fucking nasty in there now, and the whoLe office is starting to stink.

i don't know what i hate more: peopLe who don't use the courtesy fLush or freedom.

1. You have to courtesy flush...

I live in an apartment with three other people, and nobody likes a floater!

[SmileyBoy]

2. I don't understand why anyone wouldn't.

I flush everything of mine all the time. Especially with the fact that I share a toilet with 4 other guys in my dorm suite.

There's really nothing I can do about the crusty swirls at the bottom of the bowl, however.:D

3. How bout just waiting to make sure it goes down?

I mean, it takes what, 30 seconds?

[sniffa]

4. true - but i bet these peopLe piss in the shower too

rather than wait untiL they're out.

[SmileyBoy]

5. Hold on there pardner, pissing in the shower isn't as bad.

As long as it doesn't splash on the wall, it's OK in my book.

[sniffa]

6. yeah, if you wear fLip fLops into the shower

i see no probLem with it. i don't wear shoes in my own shower however.

7. just light a match in there---that'll clear the smell out instantly!

sometimes it takes two

leave a pack in there. carry one with you at all times. Makes for a much nicer world.

on edit: sniffa---perfect name for posting this poll!

10. I keep a candle and matches in my bathroom at home.

I should keep a lighter in my desk drawer at work for this.

[soothsayer]

18. A lighter, really? I always thought it was that initial sulfur dose

that cleared the air.

[pagerbear]

19. Is it?

I have no idea.

[soothsayer]

20. I think so. You really only need to strike the match, not keep it lit.

Works INSTANTLY pretty much!

8. I thought we were about due for another workplace restroom thread!

15. gLad to heLp

9. I share your pain

Just this morning I came out of the restroom wondering if we should put a GD sign up or something.

:puke:

[redqueen]

11. Is everyone even aware of what a courtesy flush is?

I don't think so....

[eyesroll]

12. Isn't flushing everything down not actually a courtesy flush?

That's kind of a required flush.

I thought a courtesy flush was -- you're not done, but you're stinking up the place and someone else is in there, so you flush the first half of your, um, production as not to offend their senses too much.

:shrug:

[sniffa]

14. hey that may be

but i aLways took it to mean, to fLush a 2nd time, cuz not every bit makes it on the first try.

[redqueen]

16. You're correct. n/t

[Magrittes Pipe]

13. Only people who are ashamed of their bodies flush.

[TOhioLiberal]

17. I thought a courtesy flush...

...was flushing in the middle of your *ahem* movement to keep the smell down.

From 'Work Dumps' at www.lotsofjokes.com:

COURTESY FLUSH
The act of flushing the toilet the instant the nose cone of the turd hits the water and the log is whisked away to an undisclosed location. This reduces the amount of air time the turd has to stink up the toilet.
