massive canine infestation

August 5th, 2008 · 214 comments

this notice was spotted by tom from cambridge, england in “the tiniest little toilet in my college hall” — so tiny, he says, there’s “barely enough room to fit a dog in there if you tried.” (but a few raw steaks? perhaps!)

    I’m not really clear on why they are thanking housekeeping for the canine infestation.

      “Dammit Marjorie, who keeps leaving all these Thank You’s around? It will take me all morning to get rid of them all!”

      I was lazy one day and Chelsea Lately ended and those damn fucking girls came on and I couldn’t find the remote… I started to panic and then I realized the computer was in front of me, so I went to PAN…

      And I listened. Probably the ONLY episode I ever saw all the way through, cause I wanted to see Kendra insult the Queen…

    I remember when I had a canine infestation. They got all in the walls and the crawl space… I finally had to run the vacuum cleaner for 4 days before they all scrambled out of my house and back into the wild.

      Probably the same people who eat stir fry in the biology lab on dissection day. I kid you not, I was working in there dissecting botulism birds and some bloke (presumably a student, but who knows) walked in and nonchalantly dug into his stir fry. Here I am cracking a ribcage and wearing rubber gloves because these birds fucking died of botulism poisoning, and he thinks nothing of the fact that he may as well be eating salmon mousse.

      Perhaps the person bringing the food into the bathroom needed a mid poop refresher. A poo-pick me up if you will. Nothing goes better after 10-15 minutes of straining like a nice juicy steak.

      Sometimes, if i think i have enough time, i will take a hot plate into the bathroom with me. I will put on some fajitas’ and hopefully when i am done in the stall, they will be done on the sink counter.

      What can i say? I am a foody.
