I question the entire premise. According to urinal etiquette, no one would step up to the urinal adjacent to the one you’re using, at least not if there is an alternative. And if there is not an alternative, each urinator would keep his eyes forward and pretend not to see or hear what the other is doing. So the farting would officially not exist.
Either he needed to fart or wanted to fart on purpose. If its the second thats crass when somebody is sorta trapped right next to you short term (your fart friends are different of course).
If he needed to RIGHT THEN then making a big production of it is still rather crass/juvenille (and again its different with fart friends).
I’m laughing like a 10 year old at this thread, haha.
I would be pretty pissed off if a chick walked up to the sink next to me after peeing and blasted a cheekslapper right there, but then I’m a woman and I imagine urinal etiquette is different… since we do everything in a stall every time, it just isn’t comparable.
So to me, and I refer to women only, it’s really not at all appropriate to fart anywhere except in a stall. I do not think that walking over the tile threshold gives a woman free reign to let loose her ass-trumpet.
Believe it or not ladies, this is EXACTLY how it should have gone down. Male bathroom etiquette is as much of a priority to us as which shoes you can wear at what date is to you.
The men’s rooms at our office have only two urinals. This backfires regularly. In keeping with urinal etiquette many male co-workers will forgo the urinal if one is occupied, and go to a stall.
But then they’ll piss standing up and spray all over.
Yes, they do this. And this isn’t some rough barracks, this is a building filled with professionals and PHDs.
Now I’m not sure which is worse - the r(ass)pberry, or piss all over.
The only behaviour I find offensive in men’s bathrooms are people that don’t lift the toilet seat when they go for a piss, and piss all over the seat and leave it there. It’s bad enough they refuse to use the urinals for some reason but for god’s sake lift the seat, it can be done with a foot it doesn’t even have to be touched.
I once left a sign in our men’s washroom at work: “Dear Urinator, please stop pissing all over the god damn toilet seats”
As far as farting goes when your in the washroom let’r rip, anywhere in the washroom.
I used to think we had the same problem where I work. Then one day I discovered that it was the violent flushing of these pressure-flushed institutional toilets that caused water droplets to splash up onto the seat.
If the seat is absolutely splatterpasted, then yeah, you work with some cavemen. But if it’s just a few small droplets, possibly your coworkers are innocent? You might want to flush one of your toilets while standing, and see whether the same phenomenon is happening there.
