“Hygenical.” It’s this year’s “truthiness.” Get it while it lasts, people…

“Do yourself…a favor Clean after yourself.”
How is that doing ME a favor? Sounds like I’d be doing YOU a favor. A favor for ME would be for YOU to clean up the excrement I leave all over the bathroom.

She must not have watched 2 girls, 1 cup if she thinks a dirty ladies room is the most disgusting thing.
Then again, they did clean up after themselves.

Dear Madam,
I write to thank you for your kind note. As a token of our new found trust and friendship I would like to warn; don’t slip in the poop.
Regards,
A Lady

I really like that she said “nasty lady”, instead of a nasty bitch or something of the like. She’s grossed out, yet still polite.

I wonder if W’s speech writer wrote this. That would explain nucular and stratergize.
Dammit KDog! You got me first, I typed this, got distracted by IRL, and then hit submit and there you were.

Why no exclamation marks after DO YOURSELF AND THE REST OF US A FAVOR?

How To Use the Bathroom and Not Clean After Yourself
By: Nasty Lady
1. Enter restroom.
2. Choose a stall.
3. Drop trou.
4. Hover over toilet (public restrooms can be nasty, you know!)
5. Urinate, defecate or menstruate atop the toilet seat.
6. Wipe your nasty lady nether regions (or not).
7. Exit stall.
8. Wash your hands (or not).
9. Exit bathroom without cleaning after yourself.
That doesn’t seem so complicated, does it?

Where I work, some “ladies” have a hard time grasping the concept of flushing after use. It really sucks to go into a stall and see a blood-filled toilet with two-toned logs floating in it. That’s just nasty.
It’s even worse that I work for a government contractor.

How to Write a Passive Aggressive Note
1. Walk into bathroom.
2. Go into stall.
3. See disgusting site.
4. Retreat. Return to desk.
5. Open Word.
6. Type passive aggressive note. Be sure to type in capitals and use plenty of exclamation marks!!! People will pay more attention if you do this.
7. Ignore spell check. Fuck you little paper clip man, hygenical IS a word!
8. Print.
9. Affix to wall at the scene of the crime.
10. Return to desk. Be content knowing that you have helped to raise the hygenical standards of your workplace.

Dear Dirty Jobs,
I work at this office where every one is fairly normal and usually polite. I graduated from Oberline College where I was a Feminist Literature major. When I attended there we had a great toliet paper shortage, but I had never seen anything like what I recently saw at worrk. One day at my place of employment, I was horrified and reviled to see such a mess in the women’s lavatory. I posted the greatest informational sign that there was this digusting NASTY LADY and boy did I tell her…
I your television program would like to see how horribly unhygenical this bathroom is you can reach me at 917-555-5309.
Thnx,
Filly Mi Hup

Just Like a Woman by Bob Dylan:
Somebody, didn’t flush again
And the smell is driving me insane
It’s offensive to my nose
and the slovenliness shows
but lately it’s gross and everybody knows
you’re not home, you’re at work
She stinks like a nasty woman, yes she does
she makes poo like a nasty woman, yes she does
she leaves skidmarks, like a nasty woman
but she cleans up like a little girl

At my office, when the Nasty Ladies leave a mess we call it a Code Brown.

Having spent a lot of time cleaning washrooms (not my job but I would rather do it than have some other employee ordered to do it) in a “famous Canadian big box bookstore starting with C”, I can say that women are by far the messier.
However, when men are messier…. they go all out. I recall one poor male employee who was asked to go in after a customer complained that there was a “mess” in the Men’s washroom came out visibly shaken…. “Anneke, there were carrots EVERYWHERE! It was like a moose had been in there….”.
Once we had to call a plumber in when a toilet was blocked. He extracted a full set (tops and bottoms) of longjohns from the toilet that someone had flushed. A friend who works in a drugstore chain told me that the plumber extracted two cans of tuna (unopened) from the drain of one of their toilets. We guessed it was a shoplifter who was planning on stealing them but accidentally dropped them in the toilet. But why flush?????
We had people flush covers stripped from paperbacks they were going to steal.
As for messy women, we had a hooker who used to park her mother in our store while she did her business out in the market backing onto our store (when it was too cold to go outside, she was caught in the Fiction section conducting business a couple of times). The mother had some sort of incontinence problem and would go to the bathroom every 5 minutes and pee all OVER the place.
They were finally kicked out after the hooker let her little dog have a bath in the toilet. Why not when she was conducting business in the Fiction section, I don’t know. Unless it was because there was always the chance that her customer might spot a book he wanted to buy.
