I'm not talking about the random for-a-hot-time phone number, gang tag or gay trucker trying to hook up for some man loving. I'm talking about the idiots who actually try to say something they think is serious and profound and choose the public bathroom wall as their forum.
The other day I was in a supermarket bathroom, evacuating the remains of the previous nights chili, when I noticed someone had carved "Obama is a Markist" (sic) on the Georgia-Pacific NeverOut 3000 toilet paper dispenser. Unlike the quickly scrawled "I :heart: weed" message below it, I could tell from the neat lettering that someone had really taken their time and poured their heart into the message. I was musing over how much someone must really hate the president to write it on a bathroom wall when the absurdity of what had been written hit me..."Markist"? WTF is a "markist"? I know the idiot meant Marxist, but if he feel so strongly about it then at least learn how to spell whatever you are going to accuse the president of being.
Along the same line are the folks who write religious messages on bathroom walls. Am I supposed to find God in the damn crapper? Do they really think "The world is doomed. God is coming. Repent for your sins!" is going to change peoples hearts and minds when it's written in sharpie on the tile above the urinal?
I don't know, maybe we need more outlets for the common man to express himself in today's society. Or maybe I just need to learn to hold it until I get home.
