Teppy, good for you, that woman was way over the line.
Mal: You are very much lacking in imagination. Zoe: I imagine that's so, sir.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"Well you're demonstrating an undue amount of interest in my toilet habits, and that's not normal."
I'd be tempted to say, "Ooooooh! I made a poo-poo! Come see! Come see my poo-poo!"
But I'd probably only say that if I was never going back there again.

I think it's awesome you had the presence of mind to say what you did, Steph! Seriously, WTF?!

Oh man, Steph, you were MUCH mire gracious than I would have been. I'm uptight about people trying to have conversations with me in the bathroom as it is.

Steph, you're my new hero for actually coming up with what I think was a pretty appropriate response for the (seriously, WTH?) circumstances.

How rude! My internal bathroom etiquette says you pretend like there is NO ONE in there besides you, unless they are family/friends, and you certainly don't engage in converstaion, much less offer advice on what is "normal". Good god!

Teppy, that was an ideal answer.

And if you're on the phone in the public restroom, you don't get to be annoyed by other people using the restroom for waht it was designed for.

"Well you're demonstrating an undue amount of interest in my toilet habits, and that's not normal."
This. Wow. I can't imagine how I would respond.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Holy (forgive the expression) shit, Tep! I am awed by your response and would not have had your presence of mind.
