Public Restroom Etiquette 101

In no particular order I will review the public restroom etiquette for the many women who seem to have forgotten the rules.

1.) If you choose not to actually sit on the seat, clean the pee drips off the seat when you are finished.

2.) Stall choice. If there is a row of 10 stalls and only one is occupied, never choose the stall next to the occupied stall. You have 7 other choices, why do you need to be right next to the occupied stall?

3.) Don't have a conversation with your friend outside of the stall or on the phone. Potty should be private, try to keep it that way.

4.) Never strike up a conversation with the person in the stall next to yours (see #2). They don't want to chat while going potty.

5.) Always check for toilet paper prior to doing your business. You neighbor (again, see #2) does not want to give you some under the stall.

6.) If you must bring your little boy into the bathroom with you, keep him reigned in. Do not let him peek in the cracks or under the stall. Once again, potty should be private.

7.) Flush! Courtesy flushes, when necessary.

This is on an exhaustive list, I will certainly think of other things to add in the future as they irritate me.
