The Unwritten Code.....


Today while out to dinner with my wife I used the men's restroom. It was a nice men's room, 3 urinals and 2 toilets a typical setup. I stepped up to the urinal closest to the wall and felt I had made the right decision when a gentlemen came in restroom and used the urinal directly next to me. Why? Who would do such a thing? As most men know there is an unwritten code pertaining to Men's restrooms and for those of you who don't, listen up!
1. No talking! No talking means no talking. There is to be no discussion in the men's room regardless, it doesn't matter if you reunite with a long lost friend or meet your idol. Don't talk in the Men's room, period.
2. When selecting a urinal never select one directly next to another individual that using a urinal. If there are 2 people using a 3 urinal setup and the middle is open don't use it opt for a toilet, or if someone has setup shop in the middle urinal use a toilet.
3. When using a urinal stare down or straight ahead, no looking to the side it is wrong and will everyone to think you are a pervert. And if you happen to break this rule don't talk just realize your mistake and correct it.
4. Flush the toilet or urinal. No one cares to see how dehydrated you are or what you ate the previous day.

Here is a Link to help drive my points home, It is a game in which you learn the art of selecting the proper urinal in a busy bathroom. Urinal Game

Hawley, I ran across this about a week ago, seeing your post has caused me to think there are people out there that actually understand these ironclad rules. This video shows the results of breaking these rules.
