For TLK : bathroom etiquette

I would never believe that I’ll open this thread but today I was reading an article In Newsweek about "Etiquette in the ibathroom technology’s awkward invasion of the lavatory. And first thing came to my mind was TLK Bhai :D. Here are some of highlights of article :wink:

A graduated student made a website " international center for bathroom etiquette “, an Emily Post for the potty of sorts, whose tag line reads " performing no.1 and no.2 in comfort and style sine 1995”. — The International Center for Bathroom Etiquette](http://www.icbe.org/)

Newspaper get chucked out but tablets get passed around, brought to meetings, and even to bed.phones get held up to faces and placed on the dinner table. A 2011 study by the London School of hygiene found that one in 6 cell phones tested positive for er, bathroom activity.

Some of the early psychoanalysts wrote that there is actually a deep feeling that we are loosing something out one end and have to reclaim it from another.:wink:

Re: For TLK : bathroom etiquette

LOL ^. I remember I made a blog in your honor too years back, here it is the copy pasted version for people who aren't in my blog :D

''In my previous blog we discussed how to make our everyday ghusal-khana trip more pleasant; in this blog I'll give you all valuable advice about public toilets.

Right. You enter the toilets, you will come upon men of all types standing their in urinals doing their biz, please do not make eye contact as I find it disturbing. The problem with public latreens is the messy and frankly disgusting kamods. Now, before going in one you can do what I do. Scout the few cubicles to see which one looks relatively cleaner and which one does not have erm stuff swimming in the kamods and which one does not have all the nasty stuff on the toilet seats themselves. You can also tilt your head slightly upwards and flare your nostrils for any unpleasant odours.

Upon establishing the correct cubicle, step inside. Grab a tissue and use it lock the door, otherwise I don't trust the dirty door handles. While doing your stuff have a browse thorough the lovely stuff written in the doors. Its usually phone numbers to various er type of people, a bit of swearing here and there and some funny funny insults, which will actually make the whole latreen busniines a much more pleasant episode. If these paa-khanas are in Pakistan then the lota problem is solved, if not its handy to have a water bottle with you (and no please do not tell this to your gora friends, its TMI)

Before existing, you may leave 'I was here' by either signing it or doing the disgusting way and not flushing. I prefer the former.

Upon existing, was your hands properly. It makes me go puke when I see people walk OUT WITHOUT WASHING THEIR HANDS.

I hope this mini-tutorial helps you. You can leave your 'thanks' below in the comments area. You're all welcome in advance.''

Re: For TLK : bathroom etiquette

Ahem. That is gross. Not the cafe’s name but the connection that you tried to make. :slight_smile:

Nobody in the civilized world knows that disgusting word. :snooty:

That is why civilized people teach their children euphemisms for certain ‘things’ in life.
