Reason #346 Why I Would Make An Awesome Reality TV Star:

by Miss Britt on June 11, 2008

I pee with the door open.

It doesn’t matter where I am. If I am in mid-conversation and I have to go, I feel like it’s rude to shut the door and stop talking to you.

So I just go, man.

Is that weird?

    If you actually were a celebrity, there would be thousands of vagina photos scattered throughout the internet.

    And I’d be a very rich man.

    I don’t know if it is rude, but it is pretty fuggin dumb! I can’t believe you would do that! Sheeesh, I learned at an early age if you wizz with the door open you’ll most likely get a ticket for public urination because you are backlit by the dome light. Have your drinking buddy just roll down the window next time, and keep the party going. Oh yeah, make sure he turns off the head lights too.

    You are so very much like my sister Laura was.

    The very first time she met my ex she had run into the townhouse to pee and he walked by the open door. She said ‘Hi’ like it was no biggie. He was a little freaked.

    If it’s my sisters or close girlfriends–no big deal. Of course I have gone in a horse stall before so maybe I’m not the one to ask *giggling*

    I’m confused.

    So chances are – she’s not going to outgrow it.

    Dan: dammit.

    Kay: I know, how weird is THAT GUY?

    Turnbaby: I could never do that. I worked on a horse ranch and I just couldn’t. I’d go out before the barn against a tree before I’d pee in a horse stall.

    Probably because I was working as a stable hand – CLEANING the damn stalls.

    Dawn: I do that too!! Yes. We can pencil you in as a guest star.

    Kimberly: I don’t think I could do Big Brother, but Survivor let’s married old women on. So I might have a shot.

    Are they still doing Survivor??

    FyreGoddess: but that’s how you get intimate with the new roommates! At least, that’s what I’ve always found.

    Zanthera: yeah, I don’t know what Adam’s deal is. He’s an odd one. Clearly.

    ADW: I’m cool with that.

    Hallie: yes, actually, I do close the door for that. Because.. um.. no. Just… no.

    Marissa: woo hoo! Another member of the Pee Parade!

    I’m a fan of open door peeing because if I close the door then when I open it Ripley is on the other side of the door staring up at me with her “why, Mama?” eyes and it breaks my heart.

    But, I try to close the door if I have company because I don’t want to be rude. If someone explicitly told me it wasn’t rude I would probably just leave the door open. But… ya know, only if that someone was the guy with stage fright. :cheese:

    That reminds me of when I was in college and at a friends house. He had some other friends over and I went to pee. I left the door open and not only that but my friend was in the bathroom looking for something. His friends almost had a heart attack because they thought it was all so inappropriate. I generally shut the door when around other people now but at home NEVER.

    My mom was just here and she pees with the door open too. My husband just rolls his eyes at us. He’s a door closer.

    I am very much an Eliot Reed (or whatever her name is on Scrubs) when it comes to bathroom activity. If I had my way, not only would the door always be closed and locked but there would be no sound coming from either side of the door. I have had to learn, however, to leave the door cracked open a little bit so that the cat can come in and out or she freaks out. It’s a huge step for me. But, um, yeah, I have huge potty boundaries. Will’s family on the other hand–when his Dad was building their house in Texas, he didn’t even build walls around the master bathroom. Now THAT’s weird.

My dad will leave the door cracked most of the time, but I know for a fact that I have a PICTURE of him peeing with the door open, a picture that had to be DEVELOPED at a STORE. It makes me smile thinking of it.

    I pee with the door open, my hubby hates it. I blame it on the fact that we were not allowed to lock the bathroom door when we were younger. There was one bathroom and seven kids… got sorta use to having SOMEONE in there going, “oh my god HURRY UP”
    To add to the fun, I would sit outside the bathroom when I was older living with my brother, he would on the toilet doing his thing with the door open and I would sit and have a conversation with him.
    Oddly though, while I will do my thing on the phone or with the door open, chatting people up, I do not like to brush my teeth in front of my husband. Or tweeze… for both those things I lock myself in. :crazy:

    As our yard we have a pee stable, open house need to a pee do in and find a spot, there has been know up to 5 people taking a pee at a time? However for the normal private people, there a (Multi color) bucket outside take the bucket in the stable, and this means that you do not want to be walk in on.
