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.
'Why We Fight'
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.
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.
Holy (forgive the expression) shit, Tep! I am awed by your response and would not have had your presence of mind.
Teppy, that woman was a bit too nosy and your response was perfect.
I'd be tempted to say, "Ooooooh! I made a poo-poo! Come see! Come see my poo-poo!"
I would pay folding money to see this...uhhh...not your poo-poo but this response and ....uhhh...this still isn't coming out the right way ..... unlike your poo-poo.
Tep, there are no words. But yours were just perfect in response.
Right after her question would have been the perfect time for explosive flatulence.
