It's cheaper if you just put a sign on the door to flush... Unless he leaves the door open as well. :bleh:

I figure a stern reminder is enough for now. :victory:

If you're like me, all stern reminders come with a 5lb bag of naturally milled and processed whole wheat flour and an English hothouse cucumber.

Omg, I did that once in a public toilet by mistake! And a lady who was waiting to get in and had to flush it before she used it. :ashamed: Thank goodness it was only a #1, but still... :shamefulcry:


Some habits are hard to break, eh? :beaten:

I personally never use public bathrooms if I can help it. I guess I sorta have a phobia for them. I don't even use the one at work. :sweat:

@Keps: Good luck on the move!

On Topic: I attended my Aunt's funeral yesterday and spent the entire time sweating (it was hot) and crying. Now my eyes are stinging and I think it has to do with the amount of salt on my face. :bleh:

Isn't that hard to do? :sweat:

Holding it in is bad for your bladder/kidneys/etc. ain't it?

Yes, holding it in too long is bad for your bladder!

I don't use public restrooms unless I have to, which I actually do a lot. If it's not that bad and I can wait until I go home I usually choose to wait though. I have to clean the toilets regularly at work. The women are usually much cleaner than the men. Why they like to throw the paper towel on the floor in front of the garbage, instead of IN the garbage is beyond me though.

I have a really solid bladder. I usually only have to pee in the morning, and then when get home (and at night). Three to four times a day. And this is after drinking a lot of liquids, too.

Yea, I know holding it in is really bad for you, but this isn't the problem. I just don't usually have to go. I guess I've condition my bladder after years of phobia. :sweat:

Sorry to hear about your Aunt, and my condolences.

Having a phobia of sorts of public bathrooms isn't a bad thing in a way. Some public ones, and ones in restaurants as well, just aren't properly clean and maintained.

That can't be good... To be taking in all that liquid and not purging it on a rather regular basis... :sweat:

Yup. When I HAVE gone at work (desperate measures, see) I've found numerous pregnancy tests. :shakehead:

I know. :sweat: If I'm bursting, I usually suck it up and use the washroom, but it's really rare.

LOL, Mrs A.D. has what she calls a "budgie bladder", it's not uncommon for her to get up 3 - 4 times a night to the loo. :bleh:

Well, if you can't feel your bladder (like me who is paralyzed - it might sound like a blessing never feeling the urge, but it's far from it), the main danger of overfull bladder is that urine can go back up the ureters and SERIOUSLY damage the kidneys.
I have to have yearly ultrasounds to check mine are ok. :beaten:

@ topic - my internet connection. It's gone down for quite a while today, and I don't know why. From Thursday onwards, I'm going to be completely offline too, due to the move. Wah, I need my internets. :hehe:

Yikes. But it's true, isn't it? There's always the other side of a penny. I remember thinking that it would be awesome to never feel pain (I was in a lot of pain at the time) and then on Oprah, I saw a segment on a baby who couldn't feel pain (something wrong with her nerves) and as a result, she would end up getting broken limbs and such, and parents wouldn't know because she couldn't feel it. She ended up gauging out her own eye balls because she liked how they felt... and of course she didn't feel the pain of the act. :sweat:
