Mens room etiquette

Men should ace this test ... women may have a little difficulty. There IS a code of Restroom Etiquette" that MUST be followed.

The following is the urinal configuration in a sample men's room. An X above the number will indicate "in use."

(Sample):

| | | x | | | x | (Indicates that urinals 3 and 6 are occupied.) | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | -------------------------

You are to identify correctly, based on urinal etiquette, at which stall you are to correctly stand. Good luck!

>Your choice: ___ > -----------------------------------------------------------------

Correct answer: 1 You're stuck being next to at least ONE guy, so you minimize the impact and get a wall on your left. NEVER go between TWO guys if you can help it. Exceptions to this are stadium restrooms where the herd thunders in. >=============================================== ----------------------------------------------- Subtle, tricky, but important to know Section -----------------------------------------------

Your choice: __ > -----------------------------------------------------------------

Correct answer: 4 Believe it or not, 1 and 3 "couples" you with the guy in stall 2. And we wouldn't want THAT now, would we? This differs from question 4 in such a subtle way that the nuances cannot be explained. Suffice to say, only we men would understand! =============================================== ----------------------------- VERY tricky indeed Section -----------------------------

Your choice: ___ > -----------------------------------------------------------------

Correct answer: NONE! You go to the mirror and pretend to comb your hair or straighten a tie until the urinals "open up" a bit more. If you have to go REAL, REAL BAD, for god's sake! ... use a doored stall. >===============================================

Other parts of the Unwritten Code of the Urinals:

-- NO Talking, unless it's a good friend... but even then, keep it terse and unemotional. This ain't no clubhouse.

-- I don't think I need to tell you, absolutely NO touching of anyone other than yourself. A touch of another's elbow is of the highest offense.

-- NO Singing. Period.

-- Glances are for purposes of acknowledgment only..."Yeah, I see you there.

I will not look again".
