I wish I were joking, but someone seriously pulled the trash can into the bathroom, and shat in it! You could smell it the moment you open the door! What kind of nutter would do this?! Americans are so wild I tell you

Are you sure they didn't shit their pants and drop the undies down in the trash?

[–] Holyginz 14 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I mean, accidents do happen. Surprised they would just leave the trashcan in there, though. Alcohol may have been involved

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Moving a very stinky trashcan back to a more public area after doing something like this may not be a great idea. Leaving it in the bathroom also is weird though. I don't think any solution is ideal in that situation.

[–] Holyginz 1 points 2 days ago

Yea, there probably isn't a good solution here. If it was underwear they could just, empty it out and then throw the underwear away. Not pretty, but i don't think there's a way to make an accident like that pretty. If they shit in the trashcan when a toilet is right there I think we've passed the point of them giving a shit about others lol

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Assuming that it was a sane person that did it, that seems more likely.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I feel like this is a shit post.

[–] DuckWrangler9000 2 points 2 days ago

It's... Wow. I see what you did there.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You've never been to a southeast Asian city, I take it?

This person may have voted in the latest election. Did you? Hahaha

[–] [email protected] 29 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

I'm not sure I'd make this an ethnic thing. Once I saw a trash can filled with piss in the middle of a loonie store, right here in Canada.

[–] Suck_on_my_Presence 8 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Sorry, but is a loonie store the equivalent of a dollar store?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

As a west coast Canadian, I have literally never heard them called a loonie store.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Interesting. It's definitely a thing in use just across the mountains, although dollar store is also in the mix.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 1 points 2 days ago

Three Canadian dollars is equivalent to an American nickel.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Yup. So-called because of the loon on the tail of the coin. The two-dollar coin is called the toonie by analogy.

(We say dollar store sometimes too)

[–] scarabic 4 points 3 days ago

Yeah what an egregious generalization from someone vandalizing a bathroom to all Americans. I mean come on.

[–] over_clox 20 points 3 days ago

That's a tall trash can. As literally shitty as it is, I'll give them this much, that takes talent to not fall over 😂

[–] satans_methpipe 9 points 3 days ago

But did they flush any paper towels?

On a serious note: untreated mental illness can explain a lot of seemingly inexplicable behavior.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago
[–] TwoBeeSan 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Clearly there was not a sign saying not to shit in the trashcan.

People are animals

Place i use to work had a guy who would wipe his bloody boogers on the single bathroom wall in an employee only bathroom.

People will always find new ways to surprise you with their degeneracy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Did they remember to not flush paper towels?

[–] AidsKitty 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Is that a human scalp behind the toilet? WTF is going on in this bathroom?

[–] CrayonRosary 3 points 3 days ago

Looks like one of those cinnamon scented brooms you put on your door as decoration in Fall. Maybe they use it as a deodorizer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

This pic has "someone lost a bet" vibes in it, like the loser had to shit in the can but had the technicality of moving it somewhere safe before doing so.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What posseses people to do this? It's absolutely disgusting.

It's not just an American thing by the way, I've heard shit like this happening here in the UK too. Especially in women's toilets.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Especially in women’s ~~toilets.~~ trashcans

[–] Gradually_Adjusting 4 points 3 days ago

Look, just because we're practically feral doesn't make this a seppo thing. They were probably just sick from eating American food, and couldn't see a doctor because hhh okay look, it's called the fundamental attribution error, betting money says whatever happened there it was highly situational.

... Unless this was a truck stop toilet, those are pocket dimensions where God has no power and Satan is too scared to invade.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Humans are destructive creatures and public restrooms are one of the better ways of proving that. Friend of mine in high school once came up to us in the lunchroom and excitedly ushered us to the bathroom to show that he had successfully kicked a urinal off the wall, causing high pressure water to spray all the way across the room.

[–] UristMcHolland 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

School Maintenance Director here. They do this shit all the time. I have to plan all of my maintenance and construction around the idea that, at some point, some little shit is going to rip a urinal or water fountain off the wall. It's not even an if, but a when. Schools would be a great place to work if it wasn't for all the kids and teachers.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I also want stories, I can trade you for ski lift stories.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

It's certainly when I learned high pressure water systems are a thing.

Looks like Publix
