From deep inside the bowels (haha) of a high-rise, professional building - this blog is born. And other bathroom-related miscellany.
Interests: Fashion, etiquette, jewelry, celebrities, paparazzi, food, music.

I know, I know, I have already had my rant on pubes, but there were THREE pubes in various locations on the seat this time. They would not leave quietly either, as it took 5 seat covers to remove them. This may seem excessive and even wasteful, but I don't... Continue reading

In many cases, the automatic flush feature installed onto public toilets proves to be a wonderful thing. Low rent college dorms where kids just "forget" to flush it away or roadside rest stops where an unflushed unit might sit unused and unseen for hours or days are prime examples. However,...

We currently have a user of the men's restroom who walks in, grabs a wad of paper towels, gets them soaking wet, then retires to the stall. His ball of used towels would most definitely make the basket if he worked with you.

Really people, is it that hard? Chances are that you litterbugs use this workplace bathroom almost as often as you use the one in your own home (more if you have a crap job). But you wouldn't do this at home, would you? Even the grungiest of college apartment bathrooms... Continue reading

For the most part, I try to hover and not actually SIT on the toilet seat, but there are times when I just can't do this. Sometimes it's the outfit I'm wearing or the pilates from the night before, but occasionally I must come in contact with the seat cover,... Continue reading

Just curious why your flossing can't wait until you get home? I understand the need for excellent oral hygiene, but the gross food flying out of your mouth onto my public faucet and countertop is more of a hygiene problem than your receding gums. If this is part of your... Continue reading

The 17th floor restroom was closed for cleaning, so I needed to find a different floor to pee. I usually prefer 13, as it is a floor full of doctor's offices who have their own bathrooms, so the public restroom is practically unused. The doors of the elevator opened and... Continue reading

I walk out to the restroom in the middle of the workday - keep in mind this is a professional building on the 17th floor - and security and the sanitation engineers are hovering outside of the Women's Restroom. They tell me I can go in, but to "be careful".... Continue reading

I get it. You're overworked, tired, maybe even defeated at the end of each day. It takes everything in you just to drag your sorry ass out of bed to start Groundhog's Day all over again, but this does not mean you should neglect your "down theres." Do you really... Continue reading

During the first few weeks (or months even) of dating someone, the bathroom talk is kinda off limits. You probably don't make it known that you just lost 10 lbs after eating that huge burrito for dinner, nor does he tell you to come look at the 2-foot cable he... Continue reading

"WE DO, WE DO!" scream the women of the 17th floor. This has been a long-time-coming rant, as weekly, there are strays left on the toilet seats. Not only am I frustrated by the lack of bathroom etiquette of not doing the "double take" before exiting the stall, but who... Continue reading

Was I really hearing what I thought I was hearing? Someone brushing their teeth in the stall next to me??? Oh yes. It was confirmed when I heard the "ckkjlskjdwooo" of the toothpaste being spit into the toilet. Who does that??? Continue reading

We are a professional office in a high-rise building. Keep that in mind as you read this blog. Initially, our floor hall monitor/floor warden, also known as the marketing representative (because the marketing person is the likely go-to person for this type of situation) was forced to make the rounds...
