    My argument is knock before you jiggle. Manners say assume the room behind the door is occupied if the door is closed. If that’s the case, manners dictate you knock, not just try to jiggle the handle.

    Public bathrooms have fucked up locks sometimes. Just knock.

    Yes, I expect a response when I knock. Who tf raised you people?

    If there’s no response, then you try the handle.

    You expect me to speak through a door to a stranger while I'm taking a shit in a public bathroom? Yea fuck that. Grab the door and take the hint if its locked. You're the weird one here.

    You don’t have to introduce yourself, ask how their mom is doing. Just say occupied.

    This is why I lock the door in my own house; people like you have given me a complex.

    I'm honestly miffed. This guy really wants me to audibly speak from the toilet in a public bathroom. That's me time. How dare you interrupt that and want me to speak to you. Nope, the handle is right there. Grab it and take the hint. We don't need to hear each other's voice.

    Ha. Oh man. I used to be the sad sack that had to round up grocery carts and shit for a while during my college years.

    I will put in every effort possible to snag all my groceries out of the cart so that I can leave it where it belongs in the store, and will always grab a stray cart outside to use as my own, because this sort of thing was my personal hell.

    Enjoy the face-to-face meeting next time a public door’s lock doesn’t work because you believe in not knocking.

    Bathroom door is the same as the front door of a house. There are locks on both. You knock.

    Well since this seems is becoming a topic of debate:

    People that shit in public Restrooms. There should be more shame in needing to shit in a public bathroom than “hurrrrrr I shouldn’t be asked to speak to a stranger from behind a closed door”.

    But since I now know that this is seemingly a thing for public restroom shitters, I absolutely plan on trying to communicate with those that engage in such behavior.

    Agreed, but sometimes shit happens. Between tailgating and the game, that can be a good 8 hours away from home. I don't recall ever shitting during a game but I would if I had to.

    About two years ago I was driving home from work and had to shit badly. My route home from work was pretty terrible because there was no highway to get there quicker. I had Chipotle for lunch and there was an accident on my normal route and I was working pretty hard to hold it in. I was only a few minutes from home but I couldn't take it anymore so I pulled into Taco Bell was expecting the worst. It turned out to be the cleanest fast food restaurant I'd ever seen and I tore that thing up. I think my guardian angel was watching me that day.

    I once had a job that had me on the road 3 weeks a month. One of those weeks was driving all across South Carolina. I'd leave the hotel in the morning and drive to 3-4 towns before finding a hotel that night. I wrecked many fast food bathrooms. Not proud but it had to be done.

    I guess I’m confused; are they strangers or coworkers/employees? What I thought you were talking about was shitting in public restrooms. I feel like there are several people that have zero shame shitting in public restrooms. But now you’re talking about being at your office. Is your office shitting situation a public restroom?

    Should I just say all the messy/lazy things my wife does?

    - Never puts a new roll of toilet paper on the holder.
    - Leaves dirty clothes on the bathroom and closet floor.
    - Never shuts her closet door
    - Never puts dishes in the dishwasher, they go right in the sink, along with bottles caps, plastic bags, paper towels, etc.
    - Doesn’t put anything away or back where she got it from
    - Doesn’t shut doors or cabinets

    Basically everything your parents made you do as a child, she doesn’t do.

    My issue isn't a normal shit in a public bathroom as much as the fact that on the rare occasion I'm caught in a position where I have to, there's a 99% chance it's loud, explosive and will probably melt nostril hairs.

    I find paper towels, plastic bags (like bags that lettuce or pre cut carrots would come in), and random plastic caps (water bottles, the interior cap to almond milk, etc) in the sink every day. She basically uses the sink as a catch all.

    Does she garbage stack?

    My wife will not acknowledge that the garbage is full and needs to be taken out, so she plays garbage-jenga, stacking each piece of new garbage higher and higher while hoping it doesn’t fall.

    This is slightly a "yet you participate in society" level criticism, but I never know how sincere people who harp on "hating people" are being, and why they don't move into the boonies if that's actually the case. On an IRL level quite literally nothing because I have long since lived in the boonies by myself
