This Is Not A Phone Booth

Posted 11.08.2005 by The Extruder (23)
Editor's note: this story was a finalist for the Best Poop Report of 2005.

Ever since I had my gall bladder removed last summer, my bowels have become a three ring circus. The days of the daily, dependable Trans-Atlantic cable extrusion are gone. In the ring to my right we have the barely-damp mortar; in the ring to my left we have the fiery ass-piss; and in the center ring we have the fecal equivalent of miscarried fetuses. Another inconvenient manifestation of my gall bladder removal is now I can only hold my stools for a few minutes. I used to be able go half a day in a clench if I had to.

In my middle age, I have gone back to school. On this particular day, I went to the Chinese buffet across the street for lunch before attending a lecture in my secondary education class. Well, about halfway through the lecture I could feel my entrails start to expand. Not only that, my guts started to exhibit the loudest borborygmi my body has ever produced. I didn't want to draw attention to myself or madden the hard-nosed professor by leaving before the lecture ended, so, like most human fools in intestinal distress, I attempted to ride it out. But the concept of not drawing attention to myself dissolved as the noises in my pipes became very long and audible, the loudest of my forty-four years. I know they are on some of the tape recorders used by students to record lectures. Some of the people started to giggle under their breath and the professor looked around with a scowl on his face, thinking that someone had to be artificially making these noises.

The lecture ended twenty minutes later as the turtle started sticking his head out. With the caca inconsistency consistent with gall bladder removal, that turtlehead could well be pyroclastic lava flow for all I knew. I ran, bent over, to the bathroom. I was clenching so tight that if I had had a ten-penny nail up my ass right then I would have snapped it in half. I went in and bent over some more to see if there were any legs in the three stalls. Two were occupied, but the handicapped stall was open. Thank God -- I would have shat in a urinal if I had to. I ran, opened the available door with the unbearable pressure bearing down on my dung donut, and saw that there was piss all over the toilet rim! Here I am in an institution frequented by men eighteen and over and still there is an infantile moron who has to piss all over the seat.

It was a desperate race against time wetting the paper towels, wiping the rim, and then drying the rim with dry paper towels. I felt like I was in an Alfred Hitchcock movie as my field of vision focused like tunnel vision on the paper towel dispenser, the sink, and the toilet rim. I could hear people talking like it was a far away echo. My tinnitus became deafening. I was already drenched in flop sweat. I finally finished the clean-up and, continuing the Hitchcock film motif, the toilet seemed to get farther and farther away as I made the final dash for it.

Finally I pulled down my pants, did the two-handed cheek pull-apart, and collapsed on the toilet -- and not a nanosecond too soon. Just before my butt cakes touched the rim an explosion rivaling Mt. St. Helens rang through the bathroom, followed by the splashing sounds of solid matter impacting water at sixty miles per hour. It sounded like someone had poured a bushel of apples in a full rain barrel from ten feet above. Then more gas erupted from my tortured anal orifice as more solid matter came out, making me feel that I was passing salt shakers alternating with a foul gas that smelled like fetid pork lo mien.

The next loud noise I heard took me completely by surprise. It was a couple of large bangs on the stall wall from the shitter next to me. Then a voice bellowed: "Godammit, I'm talking to my wife! Damn, that is so rude. Keep it quiet, you sicko!" He had been talking on a cell phone while evacuating his bowels.

My surprise turned to rage in an instant.

"Listen you asshole, this is a shit house, not a phone booth!"

I looked down at the bottom of his stall to see the only vestige of his presence besides his voice: pleated pants collapsed over two-toned wingtips. Two-toned wingtips! This was 2005, for Heaven's sake. I was now enraged; thank God I was able to call up some loud, wet farts when I heard the man hang up his phone. He pulled up his pants, left his stall, banged on my door three times and called me the name of the offending part of my anatomy as he started to exit the bathroom. Boy, that enraged me. I had resolved to find those shoes and call that asshole out. I wished for one more blast before that sum'bitch left the room; and thank the Fates, I let a loud, wet, sloppy intestinal death rattle as I yelled, "Kiss for you and your wife, asshole!"

Like they say, be careful what you wish for. The induced fart was followed by a stream of about a gallon of pure, burning yellow bile. This happens a lot in my post-gall bladder era. When it does, I instantly fantasize that I am taking a dump in a Swiss chalet in winter, where I reach out of the bathroom window, snap an icicle off the eave, and stick it immediately up my anillo del fuego.

After the tempest in my colon subsided, I started wiping my ass; of course there was yellow liquid on my cheeks as well. But when I started wiping the sphincter proper, it seemed my ass would not get clean. It was like there was a magic marker up my ass.

I got up to survey the damage. As I struggled to stand up straight I could feel a wet warmth on my back: there was liquid filth all over my shirt tail. Apparently I didn't fling it up as I sat down and it went below the rim to get painted with filth. The contents of the bowl were the most fowl smelling soup I had ever produced. It seemed that the massive amount of toilet paper I had used had already disintegrated in the ass morass. That odor would hang in the air for days. I hoped the reek wouldn't permeate the pages of my school books lying on the stall floor.

I took off my shirt and washed it in the sink. I was getting strange looks from guys going in and out to relieve themselves; some audibly complained of the stench. One guy bitched at me on his way out. "This is a shithouse," I countered. "What the hell do you expect?"

Attending the rest of my classes that day, I looked for Mr. Telephone Man and his wingtips. But I couldn't find him. I hope his wife enjoyed my audio bumpkiss.

That was truly amazing!!!! I applaud your shamelessness

The Big Wiper (2245) -- 11.08.2005

Yet more evidence of the rudeness and gall (sorry about your gall bladder, BTW!) of cell phone users. I continue to be turned off by that entire culture and am more resolved than ever not to give in to it.

daphne (3608) -- 11.08.2005

A first for me, to read a story where someone is so idiotic that he will yell at you because you're pooping in the toilet. Bravo to your reply.

I was waiting to see if it was your professor!

You'll find those shoes yet; and when you do, you must tell us.

Hey, if the class you were sitting in happened to be English Comp, you should be teaching it. Also, check whether your professor wears wing tips. Great story, thanks.

Shatty Cake (135) -- 11.08.2005

OMG, what a ... err ... colorful story. And thanks for teaching me a new word -- I'm sure it'll turn up in a crossword puzzle sooner or later.

Imagining sticking an icicle up your ass -- BWAAH hah ha. Marvelous.

Don't get me started on the inconsiderateness of most cell phone users.

PooperGal (527) -- 11.08.2005

Geez. A guy talks to his wife while he's crapping, and has the chutzpah to criticize you for crapping and farts? He probably didn't want his wife to know he was talking to her while on the shitter, and was embarrassed as hell when the farts made his location obvious.

That's a bad deal, with your gall bladder gone. Your sense of humor will be your best ally and defense against that medical inconvenience, it seems. Being shameless is a big help too. Keep on putting the pretentious (and) rude people in their place!

And I agree with Logjam. You should be teaching comp or creative writing. Bravo.

Excellent writing and I loved the story. It is at times like that, I am tempted to revert to the behavior of my simian ancestors. Flinging some poop at that guy, would have been very satisfying.

Thank God a toilet was available to you.That jerk is the type of person who might not give up his seat until his phone call is over.I agree with Sam Damnit!It would have been a good time to turn into the great Chinese philospher Who Flung Dung.I wonder if Mr.Shoes would have liked that.

C Everett Poop (649) -- 11.08.2005

Man! What a dickhead that guy was. You showed excellent restraint by not reaching over the stall and choking him. People who yak on cell phones are dildos. It's like they think they have to optimize every instant of their day, even if it's doing something pointless. Good thing I'm only 2 years away from opening my cell phone free separatist compound in Montana (with plenty of bathrooms)

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 11.08.2005

C everett: Let me know when I can join you in Montana.

I hate assholes on the cell phone. I just left a Panera bread where the woman who sat down at the next table over proceeded to talk on her fucking phone the whole meal..

Back to topic, way to go. I LOVE going to work and farting up a storm in the shitter. If anyone ever says anything I'll keep that line you used handy.

I was taking a piss the other day at a restaurant and the guy at the next urinal over let a fart so big I felt my hair move. I could help but burst out laughing.

Pill Pooper (451) -- 11.08.2005

Great story. As a shamefull shitter, I commend you. Personally, I would have wiped my ass and thrown the grenade over to his stall. But, I'm a jerkoff and do things like that.

Fart Poopie (1257) -- 11.08.2005

The gall of some people. You should have yelled, "You're talking to your wife on the phone while taking a shit, so who's the sicko?!"
On second though, what you said was much better. lol

I wonder what the guy in the third stall was thinking. Was he laughing? Was he equally enraged at the idiocy of Mr. Wingtips? Why didn't he defend you?

Ecoli Canoe (not verified) -- 11.08.2005

In Chinese medicine it is said that the gall bladder gives people their "gumption" and the drive to be assertive. Without it the person loses their "gall", their nerve. Hell, I think the Chinese are wrong after reading your story!Where is Who Flung Dung for an explanation? Great story!

Fecal Streptococcus (not verified) -- 11.08.2005

I'm with C. Everett and the Big Wiper on that one. And nowhere are cell phone users more insufferable than on college campuses. What in the name of all that is holy do these 19-year old kids have to talk about for hours all day at many dollars per call? Unloading 1,000 shares of Microsoft? Securing real estate development deals on Key Largo?? Negotiating peace in the Middle East???

Add another cellphone trick to the "LBJ in the dumper" one--riding a bike through throngs of pedestrians whilst yacking on the phone. Really. The mind reels.

No retaliation method is out of bounds in a situation like you experienced. Declare a free fire zone and let them have it!! All's fair in love and the dumper!!

Shit monster (85) -- 11.09.2005

This is the funniest thing I have read all day. I liked the part where he was talking to his wife. I hope his wife heard the noises

Bunga Din (1239) -- 11.09.2005

Great story, you touched on two things that piss me off, assholes who leave piss on a seat and people with a cellphone glued to their skull, Pill Poopers idea was certainly a possibility but you kept it real and told him off, well done...a bushel of apples from ten feet into a rain barrel...I can hear it now...LOL

Wolfbait (not verified) -- 11.09.2005

Your story was hilarious! I had tears of laughter flowing - although nothing compared to your flowing river of burning mustard.

I hate people who think the only place they can get some cell phone privacy is on commode seat - with their pants up. I had a similar experience as yours - I was about to mess up my pants at work, so I made quicktime over to the bathroom. One of the two stalls was occupied by some moron yacking on a cell phone. As a result, I had to sit on the handicapped commode. I made sure I made as much "noise" as I could grunt out. His second sentence was his apology to whomever he was talking to about his current location, and him having to make a quick relocation.

The icicle fantasy and imagery made this sound like a York Peppermint Patty commercial. Great story.

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 11.09.2005

That was fucking great!!! I had to quiet myself at the office so I would not draw so much attention to myself whilst laughing! Best fucking line..."Listen you asshole, this is a shit house, not a phone booth!" LMFAO!!!!

wonderpance (590) -- 11.09.2005

that was a superb story!

the stupidity of some people astounds me. i think i would've lost it on that guy. his idiocy would've been the last straw. i just really can't believe that someone would actually bitch at another person for POOPING IN THE BATHROOM. seriously, i'm at a loss. how could you.....i mean...why would...i just....i can't...

runninggrrl2 (170) -- 11.09.2005

My sister and I have a bathroom philosophy that we don't hesitate to share with anyone who goes into a bathroom after one of us is finished and says "Ew, what reeks?" That philosophy is "It is a bathroom and that is what bathrooms are for. It's much better than farting/pooping/peeing in the general public."

And idiots who use cell phones in the john are so freakin' obnoxious anyways. Is it really that important that you can't call them back in 5 minutes while you take a crap?? I admire your audacity. The guy sounds like a jerk...let us know if you figure out who it is!

In England, we bathe in bathrooms, we save our number 1s and 2s for the toilet

PooperGal (527) -- 11.10.2005

I thought you did your excretory business in closets. :)

In the US, the toilet is usually next to the bathtub/shower and sink/basin, so we refer to the whole shebang as a "bathroom." Some new homes have water closets separate from the tub, but in the same room.

Even in public rooms which don't have bath tubs or showers -- just urinals, toilets and basins -- we tend to lazily just call everything a "bathroom" or maybe a "restroom" or "lavatory." But the polite way to say we are urinating or defecating - or plan to - always has been "going to the bathroom."

In the Philippines they call the toilet the Comfort Room (or CR for short). I rather like that name - after all, you feel much more comfortable after emptying your bowels or bladder.

WTF is with these assholes that have the wireless headsets? Some sphincter just starts talking while Im urinating. Hes not holding a cellphone so I try to answer his statement. At least I used to know if someone was talking on a cell phone....they were holding it! I felt like an ass when he looks at me wearing one of those fn "Borg" earsets. I ignore everyone now unless they know my name. Screw em.

The Dumpster (2505) -- 03.22.2006

This is one of the funniest stories in the history of PR. Extruder, you promised another story, but it never got posted. What happened? Did the Wingtip Mafia catch up with you?

I am hoping for a social consensus against cell phone users similar to what there now is against smokers--the damn things ought to be illegal in most public places, STARTING with the crapper!!

GottaGoGirl (2616) -- 03.22.2006

Mott-- I sympathize! I was helping a guy the other day and he did the same thing: started talking out of the blue and making no sense. I said, "I'm sorry, what?" But he SHUSHED me and turned so I could see his bluetooth.

At work, we call those kinds of people "Oh! Are You HERE?!?", meaning that the person helping them is a non-person.

I told the guy, "You know that makes you look a little crazy, don't you?". He just smiled and walked away.

Oooh! (OFF TOPIC) Reminds me of when a guy did that to me, but he wasn't on the phone. He was nasty and rude the whole time, and he SNATCHED his receipt out of my hand and stalked away. I sang after him, sweetly, "You-'re Wel-come!" He spun around and said, "What did you say?" "I said, 'You're Welcome'." "I want to speak to your manager!" "Wait right here."

I paged the manager on duty and said that this customer would like to speak to her. She asked him what the problem was, and he told her I was rude. She said, "Really? In what way?" Well, he couldn't very well TELL her that he'd been nasty and didn't thank me. How stupid would it be to say, "She said, 'You're welcome.'"? The mgr said she couldn't help him if he wouldn't tell her what I'd done wrongly, so he just huffed and walked out. Asswipe.

Thanks for letting me vent that; it's bothered me for years. :)

Note that Extruder posted on 11.14.2005, above: "I have another story I'll be submitting during Christmas break, but it won't be as good as this one."

Well, the best people on this site would be hard put to top THIS story, Extruder.

I just want to encourage you.

Double Flush (602) -- 05.04.2006

I could never write something so grand as this fine piece of work. I had no choice but to laugh out loud whilst reading it.

It's a shame some people can't put down their cell phone even for the few minutes it takes to take a dump. I usually fart loudly or flush just for the hell of it if someone is using a cell phone while they are on the throne. Thank goodness you don't (normally) see people taking a dump or watching movies in a phone booth.

lol... i found the site by googling the phrase, showering surgical glue gall bladder, which is actually how someone found my own website. Your story is about 50 thousand times more hysterical then mine. Although, I've so been there with the bitchers/laughers, as far as raging public poops go. Lactose intolerance is an evil monster that rivals my recent gallbladder sprints.
