I went for private. If I absolutly have to shit in a public restroom, you know it is going to be a nasty one. Nothing worse than dropping your load, only to have some asshole in the next stall call out, "eeewww, man! You sick or something?"

agreed dumpster, private it is. the other day at work i had to take a semi beer dump, i had three the night before, and they catch up with me even in small number, a loud raccous fart ensued and this little kid and his dad were in there. i had to help them buy shoes a few minutes later. i hate retail, and i hate the fact that we don't have an employee restroom. glad i'm going back to school in the fall.

I said closest. If I have to crap, I get to the nearest dump station and do my business. Never have to worry if your gonna make it in time.

I almost went with 'the prettiest." Me living in an upper-middle class part of town, I'm not impressed with any of the public restrooms I can think of offhand. Nope I had to choose 'the most private.' The few public dumps I've had were when I knew nobody was in nose or earshot...

I had to go with "cleanest". I have passed up more than one relief station, saying aloud, "I just don't have to go THAT bad!"

I went in an antique shop today that had not only a fan but was a single shitter in the back of the store.

Private is great!

I went for the closest - as long as the turds already in the stall aren`t overflowing the bowl, (and there`s some paper left) it`s good enough for me.

I went for "closest" because public restrooms are about necessity. I just wish there were more of them . . . it would be nice to be able to pick and choose.

Definitely private, no doubt about it. We all already know I'm a Shameful Shitter, and I tend to make noise with my frequent LiquiShit. I feel best when no one else is around and I can let 'er rip.

It has to be closest for me. Once, while traveling, we stopped at a gas station for some urgent business. There was water everywhere, and a line of people sloshing through it to get to the one unisex hole. When my turn blessedly came, I found a porcelain brimming with water and slick muddy floor. I was long out of options, and quickly lowered myself into a tenuous hover. Suddenly, I heard a gurgle, and the bowl empied completely beneath me. My relief was definitely two-fold that day. Beggars can't be choosers.

Closest. I dont have any problems dropping trou wherever I happen to be. Including but not limited to Home Depot on a sunny saturday afternoon..

Let's hear the story, Grogan! I bet it's interesting.

I have to say closest--but with a caveat. The closest has to be clean. Not necessarily the cleanest there is, but it can't be nasty, or I'll move on.

Make any sense?

DF: Ill put it in my que of things to submit. The horrors of that day last summer are still very painfull.

I went for closest. I'm given very little warning when I gotta go, and if I'm in public I generally end up walking like a duck on speed to get there in time. I've seen some pretty fould bathrooms, but they are nothing compared to what's left when I'm done.

Same here, nine inch log. You never know when you're gonna go!

private is the only way! i dont want anyone else to have to hear or smell it.

I chose private for a couple of reasons. Fist of all, I'm a shameless shitter, but privacy is still important. Privacy is mainly important to me so that I can ENJOY my shit, and not be distracted by someone else's splashing water, and childbirth pains. Secondly, I like a private crapper, because the privacy affords me all the time I need to clean the seat. I enjoy a pristine condition, and sometimes it might take a half roll of paper, and 5 flushes to scour that Mother F'er.
Nothing worse than someone pacing outside my stall, and tapping their toe impatiently while I clean. Thank You.

"Public" and "clean" are usually diametrically opposed when it comes to bathrooms. I won't clench my cheeks, but a restaurant or other public establishment taking great strides in sanitation is appreciated.

This is one of the best polls yet. AB2K, do you plan to publish some type of findings about people's pooping habits, based on your polls?

If so, is this a truly unbiased sample?

Dumpster, I like that idea! It would be really cool to gather all of the information from all these polls into some sort of report. However, regarding the bias, I think that we do have somewhat of a bias here for certain types of people, even though there are all different types of people voting.

I picked the prettiest place. Nothing is better than defecating in a pretty bathroom. I like to look at the pretty walls as my precious poop plops into the white porceline bowl.

Ok...yesterday was the last straw, people. I simply cannot stand women who "hover" over public toilet seats and then leave their "droppings" for someone else to clean up. Would you use a bathroom that had no toilet paper and no water? Of course not --- therefore, take some of the toilet paper, walk to the sink, put some water on the toilet paper, wipe off the seat, take some MORE toilet paper, lay it on the sides of the seat, and then SIT YOUR ASS DOWN AND PEEEEE!!!
I am one of those people who must use public bathrooms if I have to go. I have a weak bladder and a spastic colon. If there are none of those paper seat covers available (and, I use 2 if I am really paranoid) then, I just use the toilet paper that should be in there to put on the seat!!! Doesn't that make more sense then trying to hold your balance while you aim, hold your panties out of the way, and then make a big NASTY mess for the next person? Let's not even talk about men who can't aim straight...that's another issue all together. I am talking about all those stupid, paranoid bitches who think they are going to get some deadly disease on the back of their thighs (because that's the only part of your body that's going to be touching the seat when you sit down)in even in the cleanest of public toilets. I am tired of having to clean up behind you while I hold my pee (or whatever I have do in there) and clean up your mess, first. I am 50 years old, have been using public bathrooms my entire life and I haven't caught anything yet. Use the damned toilet paper, dummies...that's what it's there for!!

And what absolutely authoritative and arresting alliteration that was, poopy girl!

"Let's not even talk about men who can't aim straight...that's another issue all together"

Even with all the hype people put all around the penis, and though guys can pee theoretically anywhere, it's not exactly a precision device. In fact, it's rather crude.

Bad luck about your tackle DF, mine is like a guided missile`s laser beam.

I hate trying to aim. I'll be all lined up and ready to go when BAM it shoots out at a 90degree angle to the right.

Sounds like you need to take a little more time choosing your dates N.I.L., or use them a little more often, that could be from clogged up plumbing. As for you Pissed Off Pisser, why don't you try a little fiber in your diet, and chill the "F" out. As far as I can tell, spastic colons are a gay party trick, and your run-on paragraph is annoying! Go wear a sandwich board outside of your scary-bad restroom, and tell someone who cares.

__Pissed off pisser...Those "Paper seat covers"_Are more commonly refered to as "Texas Neckties"_And as far as the ritual of running back and forth to the sink to clean the toilet,,I've never done anything like that in my life...Shit it and forget it___

I didn't chose private because I really don't give a rat's ass who hears, smells, or sees me. Temperate is not an issue unless I am chosing an outhouse. Most bathrooms are flush and there is no poo hanging around to get hot and maggoty. Closest only applies if I am in a hurry. Prettiest... what the fuck? Who cares? You're going to shit in it for God's sake!

I chose cleanest for the sake of my germophobia. There is nothing more disgusting to me than finding a bathroom with piss on the floors, poo smeared on the walls, and no toilet paper because it has been used to clog the toilet. Then there is the horrible smell factor. I have actually risked shitting myself so I didn't have to use a stinking, filthy bathroom. (cough*Wal-Mart*cough)

For me it is B, C and D. I don't enjoy pooping in a toilet that looks like it's last cleaning was sometime during the industrial revolution. Temperate is not as important but, I can't concentrate in a bathroom that is hotter than the hammers of hell, or so cold that my bare ass feels like I am sitting on an igloo. I also enjoy my privacy. Pooping is not a spectator sport.

Jammin' lo'flo's since 1977.

To me, the best public restroom is one that has toilet seat tissues. For more than a year, I have refused to directly sit on a public toilet seat. I have left mall bathrooms and gone into individual stores because they tend to have the seat covers. At work I share a toilet with about a dozen other women in our office and I put toilet tissue down before I seat myself. When traveling, I've gone into two or three bathrooms before finding one that has the toilet seat tissues. I never worried about what I sat in when I was in school, but since graduating from college and having my daughter (she's 7) I've become much more conscious of the need to use caution in public toilets. A cleaner facility is worth the extra walk and effort.

i like taking food into the stall. i love to eat and smell the odors. it turns me on and i love it. email me and i'll tell you more.
