Public Bathrooms

I know, I know, every person in the history of people has complained about public bathrooms. But doesn't that just kind of prove how badly they suck?

Now, some public bathrooms are awesome. For example: The Xcel Energy Center has fantastic bathrooms! They're gigantic, well lit, have enough sinks for everyone, and are always clean!

Then there are public bathrooms like the one on firsts floor of my campus library. Three stalls, two sinks, built for 5-year-olds in terms of height, width, and general usefulness.

And no freaking lights above the toilets! AND there's an overhang. Meaning you're in a nasty, shadowed little stall.

Yeah, they're dark, cramped, and everything is wet because we're all slobs when not responsible for cleaning up.

But the conditions of the bathroom are probably the most minor inconvenience about having to use a public bathroom.

The worst part is the anxiety most people feel.

One of the main rules to using a public bathroom- for both men and women- is to not go right next to the other person. You find that open stall or urinal that's four away from the person in there!

A lot of people can't even go while other people are in the same room. It's nuts.

Then there's trying to wash your hands. There's never a lot of soap, the water is either freezing or scalding, and the paper towel dispenser are always empty- leaving you with the option of using your pants or the completely ineffective air-dryer.
