    In one of the bathrooms at my workplace, the light timer used to be far too short. It reacted to sound, but not very well, so whenever it switched off, you’d hear me clapping my hands like a dumbass.

    Then one day, I had a co-sitting with another guy. And of course, the light went out on us. I was already thinking, great, now I’ll get to applaud that guy shitting.

    But instead, the guy lifted his leg, stomped a single time and the light went back on. That was the day I learnt that I’m a rookie at pooping.

    The real question is when the next guy walks in and the lights turn back on, do you say “thanks” or is that weird?

    The smartphone is your lifeline. It has a built in flash light.

      Yeah I got a hemorrhoid, probably from a terrible diet with no fiber AND taking long poop breaks AND pushing too much. Not fun 😅

    That’s when I know I need to grab the wall while standing up as my legs are going to have gone completely numb

    This is so real, has happened to me so many times… And the motion sensors usually don’t react even to you moving the toilet stall door… Fucking hell

    The lights where I work are far too short. You’ll be sitting there enjoying a poop when they turn off. And now here’s where the fun begins.

    If you say screw it and keep pooping in the dark and someone walks in? Well they don’t expect anyone to be in there…except you are…so now you’re a deviant dark pooper.

    So you have to get the lights back on.

    Except the lights are triggered by sensor and it sits on the other side of the cubicle door, and the only way to trigger it is by standing up and waving your hand over the door. You can imagine what the result of that is.
