Lets get a few things straight;

Guys have the most ridiculous unspoken rules when it comes to the bathroom. I know them cause i'm a guy but I recently seriously questioned why we have these rules.

Here's a story;

I went to see a movie over in Burlington at the Mall theatre. The movie was long and I had to pee when I got out so I went to the bathroom. I bust open the door to find it deserted; score for me. I take the first urinal and start my "business" shortly thereafter another fine gentleman walks in, and instead of taking the urinal next to mine and condensing space....He walks allllllllllllllllllllll the way to the last urinal. Its like twelve urinals away at that theatre. This doesn't shock me at all, its etiquette to give space for each other. So, I flush the toilet and I go and wash my hands and as I'm heading out, I take a glance down his way and this guy is totally eyeing me. The expression on his face read something along the lines of, "GET OUT OF THE BATHROOM SO I CAN WASH MY HANDS!" In caps. His face was speaking in caps.

Thats what gets me the most, why did he have to wait for me to wash his hands? Is that normal? I don't know. I'm not afraid to wash my hands when another Brosky is in the bathroom. I'm confident in my hand washing abilities. Its not like I flail in the water and soak the bathroom. I'm not a n00b.

And using the last urinal. There were dividers dude! I'm not taking a peek at package, I've got my own. Guys, lets cut the crap and not be so weird in the bathroom. That should be a fortress of solitude...atleast it is for the women.

On that note...why do women all use the bathroom at the same time? Is there like some garrison bell going off in there and all the women gotta run for safety? Are you fighting some monsters? Make-up Monsters? I bet.

Its big and scary...

the library at the Mt. Vernon Campus. It's not actually scary, just kinda...big. It makes the Oak Harbor Public Library look childish. Well,...its not THAT big, but you get the point! Anyways, in Oak Harbor, you can talk pretty loudly, I mean you can't get away with screaming in the college library, but you can hold a conversation with someone. Here, now, they get on you for every peep, with a "SHHHH!!!" here and "SSSHHHHH!!!" there.

Come one Library Noise Nazi's, cut some people some slack.

Thats is that, just thought i'd drop you an electronic bit of my daily adventures.
