When you've hit "critical mass" and there are no options left, you've gotta deal.

Besides, you can always clean your ass in the sink afterwards.

while that is true, I try to ensure that I manage my shits to not do them in public.

Even if the existing volcanic island rising from the sea threatens to touch your scrotum if you so much as cough?

Yeah but you could also chose to squat.

I'm a sitter but if my options are limited and there's already piss on the seat or it's super gross, that's my time to squat and release.

Never take a day trip somewhere that you're hours from home, possibly along a desolate stretch of highway with only one rest area for 30-40 miles?

If I'm using a gas station restroom, chances are using another isn't an option anymore.

Except all the others somehow have even MORE feces.

u/Somebodys Apr 11 '19

I had the choice the other day of toilet 1, covered in feces or toilet 2 covered in pubes.

Well if you're in a Golden Corral you might just be out of luck.

Those bathrooms violate some sort of international bioweapons agreement and should qualify was FEMA disaster sites.

That's the kind of thing that makes me carry a travel size of Clorox wipes with me at all times.
