Why do people write on bathroom walls?

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.

All anyone writes on the walls around here are swastikas. I've seen so many swastikas in so many bathrooms now that I'm half waiting for the nazis to take over any minute.

Edit: There was a Stephen King short story about bathroom grafitti. Some of the stuff in that story was cool. That is all.

Well with the amount of phone numbers I have got so far there is nothing wrong that I see with it.

I also always wondered this.

And ANY washroom you go in will have the word "fuck you" somewhere. It's pretty much a guarantee. The only place I never seen that was at a Christian camp. Instead, it was bible verses.

Even in the bathroom where I work there's graffiti, and this is a professional corporate environment.

That's what I do. Even so, where I live you'd never see the "repent for your sins" shit in shitter. However, I can hold it in really well, and seldom need to evacuate or even realize how much I need to go until I'm actually home.

Folks who write on shithouse walls
Roll their shit into little balls
Those who read those words of wit
Eat those little balls of shit.


Birds do it and fly
Flies do it and die
Dogs do it and stick to it
Why can't you and I?


Here I sit in heavenly vapor
I look around...there is no paper!
There goes the whistle, I must not linger
LOOK OUT asshole, here comes my finger!

I don't understand why people would write anything on bathroom walls.

(certain exceptions can be made - for example, stud markings on unpainted wall)

That's classic. Yes, I've seen that in a bathroom stall, many years ago. Actually, I think it was only the first two lines I saw. You see, there is progress. :laugh:

Ancient "marking" urges. Animals pee on things as a "Rover was here" indication to others.
We write messages on things.

My ex-wife reported this, from a Northwestern Bell bathroom stall:

My mother made me a lesbian!

(response) If I buy the material will she make me one too?

Out of all the people to take a shit there, some of them must have been absolute retards. What you are seeing on the bathroom walls are retard tracks. Also, maybe they're just accusing Obama of being a Mark Magwire fan.
