You’ve never worked retail, have you?
Jesus that’s realistic
It’s the DivX logo in the corner that gets me.
The episode’s from 2006, so it makes sense.
That would make this an ~18 year old artifact.
This is my only memory of South Park since I was a kid.
I wish I didn’t remember it as well as I do.
You have never cleaned bathrooms if you wonder about the source of this sign.
You have never worked in a public building if you wonder about the source of this sign.
I worked at a grocery store growing up. One time I had to throw away my shoes when I got home.
I cleaned them for 2 years in the mids 80s. (Restaurant across from a mall in a big city) I never saw shit outside of the bowl.
Women’s was always way
betterworse than the men’s.Women’s was always way better worse than the men’s.
Is it because they hover instead of sitting or is it because every trip is a sit down trip?
Sorry. Typo. Women’s was worse than men’s.
As a kid I had no clue. As an adult still have no clue.
Let’s just leave the question unanswered.
In my experience, the “NO” figure should be bent over a bit more in order to project onto the wall behind the toilet as well as the ceiling above. No better memory of working retail than going up to my boss and explaining why I needed to know where the spare ceiling tiles were.
Reminder to anyone still working retail: if your job description isn’t “janitor”, you don’t need to clean that up. It’s a biohazard and they can pay more expensive people with better equipment to do it.
Retail. The horror stories my better half tells will make your skin crawl.
Oh I know exactly what caused this.
The women who hover instead of sitting on the toilet, and leave their pee all over the seat because they are absolutely without empathy for anyone else on the face of the earth. If you are so OCD you cannot touch the seat, for fuck’s sake at least kick it up out of the way with your foot.
This is great. I literally am taking my morning constitutional at work and took this photo to post here.
People from my country don’t throw paper in the toilet. It cloggs it up, so instead, the correct is throwing in the trash can. By the way, if this is only common here, then what is the trash can for?
The trash can is for trash. Perhaps paper towels.
I’m sure it smells great in the bathroom. If I clog the bowl I have a plunger.
This does not influence the smell, no matter how believable it may seem. It’s pretty small, plus it’s contained in the trash can.
Having seen the occasional superfunded chain restaurant men’s room, I know for a fact this sign is needed, and yet probably won’t help. I have to imagine the kind of person who will do that to a restroom, and leave it that way, isn’t going to see this sign and say “OOOOOH that makes sense. I was totally gonna do that until I saw this sign.”
Ever been on a road trip?
In my mind, I think it starts with one rogue fleck or dribble, causing the next person to avoid and hover slightly, which produces lower accuracy yet, causing the next person to hover even further, which keeps compounding until you eventually get the shitter who actually purchased and ate one of the rotating bubbling skin hot dogs at a previous gas station, and then you get what you’re seeing here.
I’ve never seen the aftermath of a shotgun spray, but I have seen a giant oatmeal loaf on the seat before. It’s part of why my old job stopped letting truck drivers use our bathrooms.
I was in a large open plan office a decade ago with a density clearly higher than the 3 cubicles in the toilet facilities could handle. Somebody with little regard for basic human decency, murdered the shit fairy and their family in two of the 3 cubicles. Words cannot describe the scene that greeted a prospective cubicle user. Imagine 300kg black forest gateaux with pieces of corn distributed throughout being put through a wood chipper. It was quite frankly both terrifyingly grotesque and strangely skillful. I called property services who to their credit promptly sent up somebody to investigate. I saw them enter, loudly say “Fuck their mother in the arse!” and leave dry heaving into their cleaning cart. Photos were taken and emailed around to all male employees stating that the “…rancid fecal matter will be genetically tested to determine age, race and dietary preference of the individual involved!!!” Total bullshit of course, funny as hell though. We had our suspects but nobody fess’d up. I faked having a colostomy bag after that just so I could use the ambulant toilets. But that’s a story for another time.
I saw this in a Japanese convenience store. Makes you wonder.
In some countries the toilets are sort of embedded in the floor and you squat over them. There’s some evidence that this is a healthier way to poop. But if you’ve only ever squatted in your life a toilet might be as confusing as the three shells.
If you work in any job where you have to clean restrooms you know
If you just go to a public restroom you know.
Having worked as a dishwasher in a chain restaurant, whose job it was to clean the bathrooms in the middle of the day after a busload of septuagenarians have done pretty much this: Yes, yes we absolutely need this sign.
Women or teenagers.
The two most probable causes.
Edit: Some of y’all have never cleaned a women’s bathroom and it shows.
