mona in los angeles brings us this pair of notes from her high-rise century city office building. says mona, “apparently my co-worker saw the panties at issue. my question is…who leaves their panties in the bathroom at work? who does that?” my question: why are we letting paris and britney off the hook? if they actually remember to wear them, shouldn’t we encourage keeping them on?
and then there’s this one, which brings up the old mad bomber-era debate about which gender leaves the bathrooms in worse shape.

Wow. Just, wow.
And the abandoned panties thing must have happened more than once to warrant a note, right? The mind wobbles [/kelly bundy].

Bleah. Blood spots? ‘Nuff said with that one.
The first one confuses me. Britney and Paris DON’T wear panties, so they should be off the hook.
Ahhhh, the mention of the Mad Bomber. I miss those crazy nuts.

in answer to why britney and paris are off the hook: you can’t leave behind what you don’t have on in the first place

I think Britney and Paris are let off the hook because there is a market on eBay.

#12 Morpho I know what you mean because I am sure anyones mother would not want to be picking up panties, putting tampons/pads in the receptacle, or even wiping up blood spots off the floor.

For the last time, I’m sorry I tried to flush that tampon down the white enamel thing on your desk. I thought it was a toilet!

The producer of the first note must not have been too angry, the exclaimation point is quite small. Maybe they were the one who left the panties, and also happened to be the one in charge of making the signs.

I used to work at a well known insurance company where the women’s bathroom was worse than the men’s. It’s pretty bad when the ladies room at work has a “booger wall” and you have to work with the women that put them there….EWW. This kind of activity doesn’t surprise me in the least. Makes ya wonder though what their home bathrooms look like.

I used to work in an office where the C.O.O would have “Twn Hall Meetings” of all staff.
Once a woman complained about the conditions in the Ladies’ Room.
He told her he would check the cleaning schedule but to the best of his knowledge only the ladies used that room so if it was a mess they messed it!
Sorry, but his comment really was delicious! An “AHHHHH” moved through the crowd!

The Mad Bomber has definately returned for a sequel. Instead of poo…she’s moved to feminine hygeine product displays as her new modus operandi.
And hey Canthz…thanks for the invite! I’m not so much a golfer, but am good at hanging off golfcarts as they zip around the courses.

Canthz & GVI, I can’t believe that you guys haven’t yet written that it’s okay for just white chicks (P & B) to go sans panties. Why not Beyonce or J Lo?
Maybe that Century City lady had to wash-out her nasty panties in the company sink, ’cause she was afraid if she left them hanging to dry (say, for instance said laundry room) they too would be pilfered along with dryer sheets & spoons with silver endz.
Just a thought.

I was busy rearranging my Italian Chef placemats. I found the silver handled spoon in the dog’s house wrapped in panties and stuffed into a sock when I went out to hide today’s glassware haul.

I would like to know how Spooky MILF knows which bathroom was worse at her company. How often did she use the men’s? Is that how she got her nickname?
Hmm. Maybe I DON’T wanna know.
BTW, know how I know it’s no longer “International Talk Like A Pirate Day”?
They forgot an “ARRRRR” in the first note.
And I’m pretty sure that dog has been poochnapped.

#37 WanderingPenguin
Also, I wonder if the two notes were left on the same bathroom door? I mean, the two situations could very easily be related. Did mona’s co-worker have a close look at those panties? Hmmm?
Ok, that’s getting so disgusting even I can’t stand it. Sorry.
Just be thankful they didn’t leave the panties hanging half out of the garbage and the TAMPON on the floor or sink or wherever.

I think a curious MILF, perhaps working late, just had to peek and see what the guys did with their boogers.

Hey A-B #31 as far as I’m concerned all ladies can walk around uniformly sans panties (assuming the goods are healthy looking of course).

Okay, is anyone else wondering what happened to the panties? Did someone pocket them? Take them to the police for a DNA sample and sniff test?
Hmmmm…. me thinks me smells a panty bandit. Or is that tuna fish?

BTW, I’d like to point out that while the “tampon trail” is committed by women, I’ve been in more than a few bathrooms after men where they did a dirty jackson pollock paint-by-anus number on the seat.

#34 Wade you rock! I love it when people reference old PA notes. That certain one really struck a cord with me.
My absolute favorite is the bread being ordered and eaten by the roommate.
Guys, I come here like four or five times a day. The flaming is so hot here I’m too afraid to post but I want to let you know I get a kick out of everything ya’ll say.
Fuck those people who hate “team such and such” I love it when you do that.
p.s. the free doughnuts in the ladies room were delicious.

“And the abandoned panties thing must have happened more than once to warrant a note, right?”
Dawn is the only commenter who gets it! P/A or plain old A notes really shouldn’t be about one bizarre freak occurrence, should they? They’re about things that happen again and again until someone blows a gasket and writes a note. God only knows how those panties ended up there, but if it only happened once, the finders should just have a laugh.

I think we all know that great Statler Brothers hit(to the tune of “Flowers on the Wall):
Dirty panties on the wall
in the bathroom down the hall
A health risk for everyone
could you please wipe up your blood
And could you please flush the toilet after you poo
please don’t forget it’s easy to do
I thought that I had seen it all living with four guys
piss on the seat and rocket pubes it’s like they don’t have eyes
but bloody tampons are pretty gross at least that’s what I think
and it’s hard for me to wash my hands when socks are in the sink
Dirty panties on the wall
in the bathroom down the hall
A health risk for everyone
could you please wipe up your blood
And could you flush the damn toilet after you poo
please don’t forget it’s easy to do
