    I go once a day in the morning 90% of the time. I . Sometimes, usually if I've been eating a lot of junk and hardly any water, my body revolts and I'll have an "episode" where I go like 3-4 times in like 30 minutes with terrible cramps. Which is super fun when it happens at someone else's house or when I'm out for the day. Luckily those episodes are only once every few months.

    Tangentially related to this thread, and I just want to know:

    Work bathroom has three stalls. Stall #1 is the handicapped stall. Stall #3 seems to be the most popular. Stall #2 is the middle stall.

    So if you go in and Stall #3 is occupied, do you choose Stall #1 or Stall #2?

    I'm a Stall #2 person, because I want to leave the handicapped stall available if needed. But it seems, like treadmills, you should not choose the stall directly next to the other person if possible.

    What say you?

    ETA: There are a couple of ladies that work on my floor that legitimately need the handicapped stall.

    Stall 2.
    Any etiquette about not using stall directly next to someone else is trumped by not using disabled toilet if you are not disabled.
    Especially since you know there are 2 disabled users.

    I would not use disabled toilets when I am not disabled unless really dire emergency.

    Because you never know when someone with a disability might need one - and they don't have option or going elsewhere which you do.

    If a dude takes the urinal next to another dude when other urinals were available, that’s a major foul.
    I think it should be permissible to pee on the offender’s shoe to teach them a lesson.

    I don't know how you guys do it! I couldn't pee in front of someone else, even though you all say "you don't look" :huh:

    1-3 times a day vegan here, whole food plant based diet for the past maybe 5 months (regular vegan diet for years before that). Strangely enough, this morning I weighed myself post-poop and I was 600 grams more... Not sure how that works but oh well.

    Thank you so much. I have a couple different issues including mobility. I use a walker. Its impossible for me to use the other stalls so i really appreciate hearing about your consideration for those like me. Thank you. Seriously. It seems like a small issue for able bodied people but its a BIG DEAL for me.

    We have a handicapped stall in the ladies restroom (I assume also the men's) but we also have a stand alone handicapped bathroom on our floor at my office. We have a woman with MS on our floor who uses a walker, so normally out of consideration for her we choose not to use the stand alone, but when she's not at the office, its pretty much a free for all. Recently have noticed people from other floors coming down to use ours. The woman has confronted them, but they don't seem to care.

    Man that must make me a horrible person- I totally use our handicap stall not for everything- it depends on what I'm doing and what stalls are taken.
    I know a few people who have permanent handicap placards- but the one woman I actually work with- and she can use the other stalls just fine.

    But I hadn't much thought about it since we don't have anyone who uses a chair or a walker on our floor or appears to need assistance.- I've also in the years I've been here never seen anyone wait for the stall. Never put much thought into it honestly. I just wanted to be away from everyone else- there are 5 stalls- I just get annoyed when someone picks the one RIGHT next to me when there are four other to pick from.

    The vast majority of bathrooms have dividers between the urinals to block the view. The exceptions to that tend to be large venues or very old facilities.

    One time hubby and I were in Las Vegas at the Excalibur. It was just after a Colorado Avalanche hockey exhibition game (this was about 15 years ago). Hubby left the bar we were in to go to the bathroom and ended up whizzing next to hockey great Peter Forsberg.

    I asked if he looked and he said no. :(

    Yeah, you don't risk eye contact with strangers at the urinal...especially famous strangers. lol

    I used to go once or twice a day but now that I’m dieting it’s every other day, give or take. At first I thought something was wrong but then I realized well, if there’s less going in there will be less coming out!

    I used to go once or twice a day. Then the middle of December I cut out coffee and started to drink herbal tea. Since then I've been struggling with constipation. Sometimes after 3 days of no BM I resort to a couple ounces of prune juice with a glass of milk. I'm hoping that my body will get used to no coffee and be back to at least one BM a day. I drink between 8 and 10 cups of water/tea a day.
