I was at the gramps house, and the bathroom door wouldnd lock. But There was another door before the bathroom that also lead to the toilet. So I
locked that one, but silly me I took out the key. So I got out if the shower and I’m stark naked. And my cousin who’s the same age as me, walks through(no idea how the door opened). To be honest she had quick reactions and quickly turned around. but we barely spoke during that holiday. And didnt speak again till I finally saw her after 3 years a few months ago. The incident has never been mentioned( at least I hope she didn’t :s

Awesome topic! The skirt covering the lap trick is a failsafe PLAN B after the lock. Also good is the foot against the door but you have to have good reflexes for that one. (Which I have, thank G-d.)

I can’t remember anyone’s ever walking in on me due to my cat-like reflexes, but I walked in on a hairy-bummed fellow last time I dined in Brooklyn.

As an aside, when I was in highschool I was on the phone with a guy friend of mine, when he said to me “I have to make.” I almost wet my skirt laughing at that one, because such terminology is generally switched out after first grade or so. I said “ok” but half an hour later, we were still talking, so I asked “didn’t you have to go to the bathroom?” at which point he said to me, “I’m in there now.” And I thought I had a problem with the TMI thing.

Funny how bathroom minhagim differ from state to state. I live in Texas for a while, many of the public bathrooms there don’t even have doors on the, from bars downtown Dalls, to public toilets in state parks. This really freaked me out, especially when your out in the wild going fishing a 4:00 AM and have to worry about so drunk phsyco walking in on you taking a dump, or worse, while you’re doing the paperwork.

To Meg- Dont just say the men in Italy pee in public for there were quite a few women who were doing it too. And im sure u have been in that predicament as well. Thats what happens when they charge you to use the restrooms in Italy, and yes tsktsk, they were probably foreigners. I could put those 10 euros a day to better use on my vacation, then using them to pee.

People always seem to call me when I’m in the bathroom, or about to go, or something. I’ve taken to just letting it pass and doing it anyway. The mute button on my cell phone is a great thing!

I once walked in on some black woman who was in the process of pulling up her pants. When she came out, I started to apologize but she gave me one of those “if looks could kill” looks and said “Ah am gonna getchoooo!”. Needless to say I made sure the door was securely locked immediately after entering.

@Frumhouse and Meira: It was a whole new experience when my 15 month daughter started to walk. She loves to walk in on my wife or I if we are in the bathroom. We’ve learned we have to keep the door closed but not latched so she can walk in. If we don’t, she bangs on the door and screams until the door is opened.

For a second Ben I thought it said Head smashed and I was wondering how weird it would be for some unsuspecting guy to have his head smashed in by a guy with his pants around his ankles.

I once got my hand smashed walking in to a bathroom without knocking. While I was impressed by the lightning fast reflexes, now I always knock
