Restroom 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
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | are occupied.)
-------------------------
You are to identify correctly, based on urinal etiquette, at which stall you are to stand.
Good luck!

Easy Section
1.)

|    | x |   | x |    |   | (Urinals 2 and 4 occupied.)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------

Your choice: ___
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 6 It's the ONLY one to go to and every guy
instinctively knows this.

===============================================

2.)

| x |    |   |    |   |    | (Urinal 1 occupied.)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------

Your choice: ___
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 6 Stall 5 is acceptable, but you run a
greater risk of being next to someone
who arrives later.

===============================================

Kind of tricky Section
3.)

|    |    |   |   |    |   | (empty)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
--------------------------

Your choice: __
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 1 or 6 You are tacitly saying,
"I don't want anyone next to me."

===============================================

4.)

|   | x |    | x |    | x | (2, 4 and 6 occupied)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------

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
5.)

|    | x |   |    | x | x | (2, 5 and 6 occupied)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------

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
6.)

| x | x |   |    | x | x | (1, 2, 5 and 6 occupied)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------

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".
