Ok, here's something strange...

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I was changing into some running clothes in the men’s room at work. Not being a regular locker room, I decide to change in one of the stalls. I do this standing up, until it comes time to put on my shoes and socks, and I suddenly feel like there’s nowhere to sit.

So this is a strange thing. Of course there’s a perfectly servicable place to sit right there; in fact I HAVE sat there many times for an entirely different purpose, but I am oddly averse to doing so now.

Why is that? Why would I be relcutant, even squeamish, to sit on something (that’s perfectly clean) while wearing running shorts that I have no qualms about sitting on with my bare ass?

Being an institutional washroom, there was no “cover lid” to put down, so I just sat on that U-shaped lid, and it felt really wierd.

Has anyone else experienced this? What other strangely mundane things have you discovered?

I have to say I know exactly what you’re talking about. It’s the same sort of feeling I imagine I’d have if the ghost of Vincent Price started breathing down my neck.

It does feel weird. The toilet has a specific use and most people only use it for its intended purpose. To do so otherwise is just weird… it doesn’t feel right…

It confuses your brain. One half thinks ‘Okay, I’m on the toilet I must do something’ but then the other half of your brain reminds the first half that you still have your pants on… ‘WHOA dem horses!’

I totally agree. I get the same feeling. It just seems very wrong and…unsanitary somehow, which is odd considering that apparently we’re more concerned with toilet germs touching our pants than our bare asses.
