We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I have a hunch the writer did not win the competition.
(funny FIND though)
Performance anxiety?
boring one
@friggingbday:
It's not boring if you imagine that the "he" in question is Christopher Walken . . . being orbited by bees.
Yikes! This looks exactly like a friend of mine's handwriting...and that's totally something he would obsess about...hmm...I need to make a phone call.
Personally I dislike people who follow you into the bathroom. Some people physically can't pee if they're being watched. I'm not one, but I have managed on my own since I was about 6, and I don't need help or company or conversation. However if I had been in this situation I might have offered to pee on "his" foot, whoever he was, if he refused to move.
@friggingbday
Or if you imagine the "he" is Sen. Larry Craig.
The guy was posted to make sure no one cheated.
So if you have to pii really bad, why are you writing this note, and to whom?
Besides, that wasn't a bathroom, it was a photography booth. I made the same mistake.
I have this problem too.
No real comments to make but I just want to say THANK YOU to the Found guys for the amazing event at The Lost Society in Clapham last night! Yay! The booty don't stop!
I have been there, sister.
See, I automatically assumed the writer was a female, so I found the whole thing really creepy: who's "just standing there," trying to watch her pee?!! I wouldn't be able to go either! Thank god she got away!
Pee in his laundry basket!
I agree, Youngster. Only I thought it was a boy, perhaps attending the competition as a spectator, and some pervert was watching him try to use the urinal. Very creepy.
(PS-Yay Jonathan!!)
HAHAHA! I had to snort at this...I am exactly the same way and it used to be a lot worse.
Seriously, if I was in a public restroom stall and I knew there was a line waiting for a vacancy...YIKES! (maybe I was subconsciously aware of a camera filming me...)
Too funny.
P11 is the chemical symbol for urine.
that must be so awkward for guys, peeing next to eachother. i can't do it in a stall if it's quiet and there are other people in there
A man in my home town has just been sentenced for trying to take a picture of a girl peeing in a night club. He had accidentally shit himself (why would you shit yourself on purpose) and he went to the men's loo to clean himself up, but there was no loo roll so he went to the ladies. While he was in the cubical a girl came in the one next to him and he stuck his camera phone under the joining wall to film her. He is not allowed to use any type of camera equipment in public for three years.
As to this find, I like the image if you imagine the "he" to be Death. I'd find it hard to pee if Death was watching me, and that would explain why he wouldn't go away.
I'm not a public pisser, either. I suppose I get stage fright if I know someone is around or within earshot. I have to sing the first few lines of the chorus to TLC's "Waterfalls" in my head to make myself go. Either that or change the words to the old bible school song "Deep & Wide" to "Freakin' Pee."
Its dumb, I know.
so jealous, Jonathan.
I thought exactly the same thing youngster! It sounded uber creepy to me as well.
"He" was probably someone from the NSA. (The note writer once made a casual reference to "releasing the chocolate hostages" and has been on the NSA's bathroom watch list ever since.)
@ ironcladhero
i almost squirted my drink out of my nose when i read the last part of your comment. i had a mental image of myself singing "freakin' pee" to the song of deep & wide.
ha
thanks for the laugh!
Great! Now I have to pee, too! Oops. Not anymore.
I think one thing is abundantly clear; the writer of this note was clearly not consuming alcohol prior to penning this.
Isn't there a saying that it helps to put your feelings on paper. :-)
However frantic this person must have been to use the bathroom, I like it how he/she tried to somehow take her mind of the urge and write something on a piece of paper just to take the edge of. It is kind of like biting on your thumb when you e.g. hurt your knee to take the pain away there.
And I can totally see the person nervously moving around while writing to keep it all in. :-) The writing looks that erratic.
Ah, bathroom intimidation! Bathroom bullies are so mean!
Apparently this is from Patrick, who wasn't having a "hott date" OR a "Fabulous Time."
What kind of person hangs out in bathrooms, anyhow...? I've always wondered how guys feel about peeing next to strangers, or worse yet, peeing next to people they know... I've heared mixed opinions from the ones I've asked.
with the emphasis on "he" - makes me think the the he was not a stranger -
but something more like an ex-boyfriend - or maybe a boyfriend 'hopeful'
however - I'm thinking ...
she had to go badly and decided to men's room it up to void
and the standing there thing is some guy taking a leak
that wouldn't shake it off and leak for some ditsy chick
busting in while he was shaking hands with the unemployed
then again
The guys note to his friend went something like this -
Dude, I had to take a dump all day so bad - and this competish
was taking so long - and that weird chick <fill in name> came in
and was all like OMG get out I have to pee and I was like get out
you crazy bitch - I was here first!
I imagine this was drug test related. A lot of places that do urine tests anymore have someone watch. (Military, football teams, etc.)
Guy probably went in to take the drug test, found out he was watched and either knowing he couldn't swap out the urine or really couldn't pee with an audience left.
This note may very well have been to explain why he didn't get the job/make the team/etc.
Reminds me of a scene in that old movie Author! Author! where the kid can't pee because his stepbrother is standing there hurrying him up. "I can't pee if you're gonna be there...I don't KNOW why! I'm Spanish!"
None of the Spanish guys I know can, either. Must be a cultural thing.
@ sick in tired: that makes me think about "Spanish fly" -- not to be confused with a Spanish zipper, or flying Spaniards
obviously the person in the bathroom acting creepy was working with the rival academic team and was placed there to psych out the competition.
future guantanamo bay administrator right there.
if you leave during an academic competition to use the restroom they monitor you to be sure you aren't cheating.
Fuel-line freeze-up sucks.
Do they drug-test at academic competitions? The guy may have been paid to make sure no one smuggled in illegal pee samples. Hey... they do it in the Tour de France. I'm just sayin'...
This find, and the comments thereafter are yet another classic example of why our society is so bizarre- how urinating, an act that EVERYONE on earth does on a consistent basis, can be viewed with such neurosis boggles my mind. Sex is viewed in the same manner. It's almost a certainty that somewhere on earth in every second of the day someone is either having sex or urinating- two natural, normal physical activities; yet these are the elephants in the room. Fascinating!
Xander-- hilarious about Christopher Walken. I can hear him saying that! :D
I'm pretty much with Freud on this one. We all make water... we all freakin pee. Go if you gotta go. Right?
You're horny, got out and get laid. Your body, your choice. Why the hangups? why the taboos?
(within the perameters of personal safety and overall well being, of course)
It's a natural, human thing to do...just go!
to me it kinda looks like it says .." and I have to PU really bad." like P.U. make a stinky.. couldn't because HE was watching..
I know the Finder says it's pee, so it most likely IS, but no way it looks like it in this scan.
or is it "I have to poo really bad"?
Poor guy, whats with poeple hanging out in bathrooms anyways?
If he (?) really had to go that bad and was at school, why didn't he just go to a different bathroom? Theoretically, there should be more than one per campus. I dunno about you but I'll travel a pretty long way to pee if I have to.
I sent this in 2 years ago and I've not been checking the site lately I just happened visit Found today and lo and behold.
It was a boy and because of security (cheating) reasons he had to be escorted to the bathroom. However, rocket scientist that he was he chose a urinal instead of a stall.
I think these athletes were being tested or were tested for drug use or 'roids.
Also, whilst in the middle of an event, if one person had to use the loo, they were scrutinized the whole time until finished.
This poor person couldn't let go, (bladder wise or mental wise) either way!
All in all...at least just having to pee, was all that this person felt after the humiliation they'd been put through.
PHEW!
What if...this person was a druggie....and could NOT function without their daily fix? How in tha heck would they've been able to write this note?
I quiver just thinking 'bout it....bullocks!
Hey LASH, I believe the post above yours states that this was an academic competition.
Pee in your laundry basket is my favorite found.
Darn those creepy guys at the rest stops!
well that's tragic. having to pee sucks. =[
I enjoyed this. But who has the time to write about it when you gotta pee really bad? Look for another restroom kid!
Good find Norma. Almost as good as me stumbling across your name and contribution on this site!
Maybe she was at a party or something and her ex-boyfriend was in the bathroom and she really had to go, but couldn't in front of him?
I don't know, I know I can't pee in front of people. I was in the bathroom with my friend once and we were brushing our teeth and she just pulls her pants down and started peeing. I was like "..oh" And then I was like uhh I have to go to the bathroom. And she was brushing her teeth and she was like "..go then. No one's stopping you." I was like YOU ARE! And she made fun of me because I physically can't go in front of people. She was like oh my god yes you can. She thought I was just shy about having my pants down in front of her so she made me sit on the toilet and she realized I physically could not go in front of her. I was dying. I pulled my pants up again and begggged her desperately to leave so I could go to the bathroom but she wouldn't leave until I almost peed my pants thirty minutes later. Even after she left, she was listening against the door and because I knew she could hear, I couldn't go. It's really bad. I can't go in public bathrooms.
