Tossing for toilets
Hmm. I was reading ginaspider 's recent entry on wishing ppl luck when they go to the loos, and felt inspired to write this:
Quote:
I am getting to the point where i pretty much toss a coin if i have a choice of gendered toilets... Takes some of the sting out of the anxiety. And if anyone asks me "hey, what are you doing in here?" i just tell them that it came up heads. :)
And it was kinda a flippant remark, which is pretty much how i treat the whole toilet issue actually. But... wouldn't it be ace if gendered toilets were replaced with "heads" and "tails", with a pic of one side or other of a 20c coin on the door or something? And the rule was, you had to toss to decide what loos to go to? :D And maybe there would be a toilet attendant (in a spiffy uniform - kinda a cross between a parking valet and an umpire) to supervise the coin toss and ensure that you went to the "right" toilet? I think that would be hilarious and stupid and perhaps there might be some art in it... *thinks*
