One of my all-time favorites was on a condom machine:

**For refund, bring baby to the bar**

In the bathroom of a college physics building:  
“Heisenberg might have been here.”

(It’s not original, but still funny.)

> [@Dr. Rieux](#):

> In a Library men’s room here at ASU:

> **Here I sit, buns a flexin’  
> Just gave birth to another Texan**

Or the variation:

**Here I sit on this porcelain pooper,  
Giving birth to another State Trooper.**

Another perennial favorite in college dormitories:

**Flush twice, it’s a long way to the cafeteria.**

A cafe near the Charles Bridge in Prague has a small reproduction of the Venus de Milo in the men’s loos. Some drunken stag-nighter scrawled ‘Small tits!’ in the relevant location, opening up the door for the reply: “But firm!” below in a different hand.

My fave is unusual in that it has no profanity, and also because of it’s longevity…I first came across it in 1990, and I think it’s still there. You can find it scratched on a men’s stall in the South Watchman Campground at Zion Nat’l Park. Beneath a simple drawing of an owl, the text reads:

_“The Blind Owl Sees All!”_

_“Sees What?”_

_“Who?”_

My all time favourite is the one from Sydney University, someone wrote:

**My mother made me a homosexual**

and someone added:

**If I get her the wool will she make me one too?**

Ah, I came here just to mention that one. A classic!

My 2nd favorite from the University of Illinois:

**$25 Fine for eating Urinal Cakes**

The anarcho-hippie-pinko-punko East Quadrangle of the University of Michigan in the late '80s was a haven for surreal graffiti (and not just in bathrooms). Someone turned a large pre-fab sticker on a maintenance room door into an arresting little prose poem:

AUTHORIZED  
PERSONNEL ONLY  
EAT MONKEY TURDS  
ON TUESDAY

And it must have been a restive political mind with no burning issues to engage it on a boring Friday night who traipsed down to the dumpster dock with Magic Marker in hand (and probably Mickeys Malt Liquor in the other) to scrawl in huge letters the never-to-be-completed thought:

WHEN PUSH COMES  
TO SHOVE

From Kelly’s bar in Kansas City Mo circa 1975  
“I feel more like I do now, than I did when I got here.”  
I had to go back a number of times to re-read, to tell the people I was with. Of course I was too drunk to think about writing it down, so here it is, engraved in my brain 30 years later. :rolleyes:

Molly Brown, Molly Brown,  
No one claimed to lay her down.  
Then over the hills came Piss-pot Pete  
with 20 lbs. of swinging meat.  
Pete stuck Molly in the ass.  
Molly passed one hell of a gas.  
Then over the hills flew Piss-pot Pete  
with 20 lbs. of shredded meat.

Broadway Joe’s Bar, Buffalo, NY, circa early 1990s

This is one that I did. Where I used to work (this has nothing to do with the “used to” part of that), I noticed that the men’s room had a large number of boogers on the wall right next to toilet (it was a pressroom, so the dust from the printing presses and the dry air probably was responsible for the high booger count). So, one day I took a pen with me and wrote “Wall of Boogers. Place your contributions below.” A few weeks later, someone added “Grow up!”

The Simpsons recently referenced Bart’s “Booger Wall” in his treehouse and it brought back fond memories.

> I think the best I ever saw was in one of the guys bathrooms at my high school, I went in one day just to see it, me being a girl and all. Over a urinal it read “Hetler was the greatest” and underneath was “learn to spell you F-ing moron”. Still cracks me up

This reminds me of a similar exchange on a wall above a urinal at the college I attended. Attempting to make a racial slur, somebody had posted **NUKE NIGERS**. The response: **Niger is the name of a country in Africa. It’s also a river that flows through that part of the continent. There really isn’t that much there worth nuking.**

**Kegg** : I’ve seen this version of the one you posted:

**"God is dead." – Nietzsche  
 _Nietzsche is dead. – God_**
