An open letter...

I wrote this post way back in November 2009, but my experiences with the public toilets in Paris brought it to my mind, and I thought I'd share it again with you guys.  Just in case... ;)

Hey, you!

Yes, I mean YOU. You girls who think it's perfectly acceptable to squat and hover over public toilets, leaving a fun little mess for the person behind you.

I realize this isn't exactly the kind of thing people like to talk about, but I've got a bone to pick with you.

I understand that public toilets aren't exactly sanitary, but if you are that bothered by sitting on them, use a toilet seat cover. And if you can't find one of those, put some toilet paper down.

But it is completely un-fun when I come into the stall after you, sit down to use the restroom (because I don't seem to have the issues that you have with public toilets), and realize that you've apparently squatted and missed the mark, and that you failed to clean up after yourself.

SERIOUSLY un-fun.

So to all you squatters out there, let's get this problem under control. Stat.

Hugs and Kisses.

Haha! I love it. And don't forget the flushing aspect. I mean, you can use your foot, it's not that difficult. But it needs to be done.

OMG! Yes, I feel the same way!! Maybe I'm just not as paranoid as I should be about germs, but I usually can't muster the enthusiasm that other people can. Another super pet peeve of mine is walking into a stall only to see that the person didn't flush...
