This is one of the funniest OP’s I’ve read in a while. It immediately brought back a deeply suppressed memory I have of a co-worker of mine who I walked in on in the men’s room at work. For chrissakes, wait until you get home, dude! Or at the very least, go to another floor in the office building so people who work near you won’t get an eyeful by accident and be scarred for life! Wanking away like a big monkey, he was. WTF? The weirdest part of the story is that I didn’t share this with anyone for weeks. I finally confided in a friend of mine (without mentioning the wankers name), and he asked me “Was it Mr. Wanker?” I said, “Why would you ask about that specific person?” and he said, “It’s common knowledge on the floor.” :eek: Isn’t there some sort of rule that would make this person stop??? Well, there SHOULD BE, DAMMIT! I haven’t thought about that in over 20 years. I wonder what else is hiding in the recesses of my brain? I don’t want to know. ---

> [@even\_sven](#): > > I think this is really gonna depend on the woman. I don’t make any noise. I think for a some women masturbation can be a big deal involving toys, a great deal of time, etc. For others, it’s much like a man- rub, rub, okay let’s get on with the day. And, as has been pointed out on this very board, some women don’t even need to use their hands, much less toys. If I were a woman and that fortunate, I’d probably take advantage of it once in a while. I never have. It has crossed my mind, when something gets me especially worked up for whatever reason, but never seriously. I do have a locking door, but several people have the key, and there are plenty of reasons they’d need to come into my office at any time. And unless I hadn’t cum in like, a week, it’d take too long in the bathroom. ---

> [@robardin](#): > > But when I saw it had gone to over ELEVEN pages of replies, I just had to see the poll results. Dang. At first I went :dubious: when I saw this since I was still on page 3. Maybe robardin got his browser at the same place Spinal Tap shops and theirs go to 11. Then I remembered you could set the number of posts per page (mine is 100 which is Board Default I think)…now I am curious why you would want only 10 posts per page. ---
