Look at this bull-plop.

This is the current situation in the Mercury editorial department bathroom. Now, it’s bad enough that the last person to finish the toilet paper was too goddamn lazy to walk three feet to unwrap and replace a new roll… BUT TO ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO PRECARIOUSLY BALANCE THE EMPTY ROLL ON TOP OF THE ROLLY THING INSTEAD OF THROWING IT AWAY, OR BETTER YET RECYCLING IT? Again, my friends… that’s BULL… PLOP!!

I hate the people I work with so much!

So here’s a question for you, denizens of Blogtown: Are the a-holes I work with the most terrible, lazy people in the world, or could there possibly be someone worse? Like your office-mates, for example? (If so, please provide examples of their abysmal bathroom etiquette.)

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)

  1. It’s a fairly fancy office out here – dockers and dress shirts. But the floor near the urinals is constantly AWASH in urine. It’s like people don’t even get close, they just get ‘nearby’ and start to flow.

  2. That person wasn’t the one who needed the new roll. You were. So YOU walk the three feet. And the person left the cardboard there in case someone wanted to recycle it. THEY WENT THE EXTRA MILE! AND YOU SHIT ALL OVER THEM! So to speak.

  3. Some asshole (or maybe a team of assholes?) in my office building always leaves the paper butt-guard on the toilet seat so somebody else has to deal with it. Why can’t the person just shove it into the toilet? Is your butt so precious that you can’t even touch the buttguard that ONLY your butt has touched?

    Somebody also hoards all of the shared kitchen forks. I have to eat salads with a spoon more often than not.

  4. Combine low-flow toilets from the 1990s with people who never check to make sure their turds are really truly gone. Gack. (I know who you are, too.)

  5. They have toilet paper in the Mercury editorial department bathroom! Upstairs they have to use their left hand and try to wash it. Time for a raid! Anybody know the number to that keypad downstairs.
