Being Considerate

It’s Sunday and Mother’s Day, so I thought I’d head down to Starbuck’s hangout for a while and shoot the breeze with a few of the fellow junkies. I then decided to head out to the local Lowe’s as I needed to buy some grinding wheels and a mandrill for the Dremel tool. It is a gorgeous day so I decided to stop by the bookstore and check out some of the tactical rags like Firepower, Recoil, etc., but having just finished a French Press, my first steps were to head to the men’s room for a nature call before stopping at the magazine rack. I followed another guy in through the door and saw that he made a B-line for the toilet; bypassing a wall of three empty urinals. I took one of the available urinals. In the process, I hear the guy unzip his pants followed by a loud stream. It was obvious he wasn’t there to use the toilet but rather urinate. He couldn’t have been very well endowed because the stream sounded like it was falling from a second story window with not a lot of pressure. Suddenly, the stream stops and you hear the zipping up of trousers followed by a flush. Then, washing of the hands begins. Not that I was listening or anything but it sounded like he was showering in the freakin sink. The faucet is finally turned off, and now the paper towel dispenser starts running and after about 5 sheets dispensed the guy dries his hands and comes out.

Now, why this entire incident bothered me I’ll never know, but it did. So, borrowing from Michael Smerconish here is how I would rewrite this headline.

“A dick should never get in the way of a handicap asshole from using a restroom.”

Please folks, think a little and please be considerate towards your fellow man!
