all hot food is like that for me. i can never eat anything immediately when it's served. i have to wait for it to cool down like a little baby. _________________ it took me three attempts to register here.

I stupidly have no patience with hot tea and hot food and usually eat it when it's still piping hot. My dentist always tells me he can see burn marks in my mouth and kind of admonishes me for it. Does it stop me?

alright well just a bumpsy to say that the protest is haphaphappenin this saturday. 11am victoria street then 2pm tottenham court road.
if you live anywhere else in the world that isn't london then go to your nearest scientology 'church'. remember though, if there's not many people there (in fact even if there is) wear a mask or cover your face with glasses/scarf. at the plymouth protest they encountered a bit of hassle because they were outnumbered by the scientologists.
this one is called operation party hard because it's taking place near the birthday of l ron hubbard. the basic principle is that it'll be a party with cake (delicious cake). whether people actually bring enough cake...well god knows. the london one will likely have over 500 people so i'm guessing not.
something that really gets my goat is people who use cubicles in toilets and don't lock the door, so you push the door expecting it to be empty and there's actually someone in there and the door hits their back and it's pretty much the most awkward/horrible moment ever. this happens at my work where there are only cubicles and no urinals. once the door has hit them you're in this awful position where a few different things can happen. ideally they ignore the door hitting them, you find another cubicle and hide until you're sure they've completely vacated. alternatively they will say something like "someone's in here" or whatever, then you can either ignore them (rude) or say something back, to a work colleague, with his cock in his hand. after that you spend the rest of your life avoiding this person because that's just weird. if they say "i won't be a minute" or a variatio nof that it's probably best you just find another toilet somewhere else in the building/area. what's even worse is if the person who the door has hit is your boss/superior, because you have to pretend it's your fault "yeah i should've guessed someone was in there even though it was unlocked and the door ajar" or if they're taking a shit, that's the worst.
what i do is when i enter the bathroom i look at the mirror adjacent to the doors and scan to see which are closed/open/ajar, then make a choice based on that. i'm usually always right. _________________ Carlton Palmer doing his impression of a man with brain damage

They don't teach toilet etiquette at school and they really should.
We have 4 floors here each has a bog with 2 cubicles and a urinal in them.
There seems to be an unwritten rule here that you don't take the empty cubicle if the other one is occupied, because the cubicles are side by side and in close proximity. There is a big gap between the floor and the door and you can plainly see the feet and legs of the other person and their kecks down by their ankles...not a pretty site....you may as well be shitting in the same cubicle as them to be honest.
I'm on the 4th floor and so if I need to go I go to the 4th floors bogs. If one cubicle is occupied then I run to the stairs and go to the 3rd floor....pop my head in the 3rd floor toilets and look...if both cubicles are free then fine..if not then go to 2nd floor...etc etc.
Many many times I have ended up on the first floor. And if THEY are occupied then you go back up and visit each floor in turn hoping the people have finished their business and both cubicles are now free.
I know for a fact I'm not the only person that does this.
Of course the most horrific thing that can happen is the you are happily taking your ease in the cubicle and you hear some ignorant person go into the free one that is next to you
The other fun time is when they ask for urine samples (which they use for research - they pay $5 per piss). They'll send an email out saying they need like 10 urine samples and have left sample cups in the 3rd floor toilets. This triggers a huge scramble as dozens of blokes run to the bogs to earn some "piss money" and fight over sample cups. Cubicle space is all of a sudden at a premuim then. _________________ "For all his horses, knighthoods and championships, he hasn't got two of what I've got. And I don't mean balls!"
i normally use the disabled toilets here but it's right next to where my old team work and i don't really want to bump into them too often because there's just nothing to say. _________________ Carlton Palmer doing his impression of a man with brain damage
All this etiquette.. christ... I went to a club called Mo*vida in central London on Thursday night. The urinals were extremely off-putting as whoever had designed the toilets decided to put a huge mirror on top of the urinals. But not high enough, so as you stood taking a piss, your cock was in full show of everybody in the toilets. To make it worse, there were about six drag queens queuing up to use the two cubicles.. I somehow managed to push in and avoid the queue in a drunken moment filled full of arrogance. _________________ it took me three attempts to register here.
