"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

my mother got scabies from a toilet seat that was in a public venue.

Well, that's odd. I wouldn't have thought it was a good medium for much of anything, temperature-wise. But I can see how it would be most upsetting. Still, unless someone else has evidence to the contrary, I'm going to guess it's a vanishingly rare occurrence.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

When you are short, it is really hard to squat. the toilet at the theatre where i work is some sort of freaky tall toilet where my feet don't touch the ground sitting on it normally!. And I am not that short (5'2"). Also, that particular bathroom is a single person, and you can tell it is cleaned/frequented by men because the waistbasket is like a 5 minute walk from the toilet, so if you have to change your tampon you have to wrap it, set it down, insert the new one, pick it up, throw it out and then wash your hands. Which requires crossing the bathroom like 4 times. Every time I am in there I move the wastebasket near to the toilet, but it always gets moved to by the door.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

it always gets moved to by the door.

For the people who use paper towels to open the door, I guess.

Without forward admittance, the public washroom is a venue most likely to affect every user of every age group and every gender.

"Without forward admittance"? What does that mean?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Some of the handicapped-accessible toilets at my school are high enough that I'm on tiptoes! And I'm way taller than you. I don't use those if I can help it.

I usually use those, and never notice until it's occupied and I try a normal stall and have that empty air moment where I fall.

I'm sorry, but that image makes me laugh. I fell into a sofa the other day, but hardly ever onto the toilet.

I don't fall in in. I fall towards, when my quads relax.

So stop it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Quick trivial first-world dilemma poll -- Hec is getting antsy about the trip to Vegas and wants me to get tickets now. Gambler!Phil gave us all his credit card info for ticket-getting... except, it turns out, the all-important phone number, without which we're SOL. Hec has already left to pick up Emmett (though I seriously doubt he has Phil's number anyway), and I sent an email to Phil but he hasn't responded.

Should I:

a. Keep waiting, and watch the ticket prices continue to go up and up, or

b. just go ahead and put them on one of my credit cards and eventually get paid back? (Which would anyhow save Phil the $100 extra it'll cost to have paper tickets mailed to us, which is the way we'd have to do it otherwise)
