DUmmy goes on DU to rant about unflushed turds

(not political this time) Rant Re: Rude People
It just involves one of my pet peeves which rose (or sank) to that level partly because such behavior indicates plenty of other attitude problems:

People who don't flush the toilet after themselves, in public and/or private.

It happened to flash on my radar this morning because after several other people beat me to the restroom at this tiny town's food market ('super' doesn't enter into the picture), the last one was a UPS driver who couldn't be bothered to flush. Which I found out because by that time I was leaning against the outside wall, ready to trip Mother Theresa herself if she tried to jump line. You can't hear too much at that spot but you can damn sure tell when/if the toilet flushes.

So the door flies open and this UPS driver dashes out; hoping maybe she'd just gone in there to primp, I stuck my head inside the door and discovered it was far, far worse. So I whirled around and started after her, fearing she'd be on the road before I could nab her. Luckily she'd stopped to sign papers at the office and looked up in surprise at me when I announced her 'mistake' rather bluntly. She just shrugged and made no apology whatever. If someone said that to me, I'd have been mortified at my forgetfulness and would've hastened to correct the matter. Not her. All I got was more of a 'kiss my foot' type reaction.

After a brief but sharp description of her piggishness, I marched out of the store in something of a heat. Normally I latch on and make a person go back and correct their laxness - for some reason I've always succeeded against much larger adversaries even with my miniscule stature - but my driver was waiting for me and the time required would've adversely affected her day's schedule. The only people I let off scott free are the very elderly or handicapped.

Perhaps incredibly, I don't consider myself an old meany. But I was an Army brat, product of various Catholic schools and a too-long marriage to a career Army officer, and when on my own even turned to driving a semi in between dot com crashes. So my entire life experience has encouraged, if not required a certain degree of assertiveness. I even used to visit a cool roadhouse in AZ when they had particularly good blues musicians on, and the place was often filled with HA's.

Point being that I might lack a strong self preservation gene. Normally I don't care what other people do and I don't generally go around messing with them either. But that one particular philistine behavior just raises my temperature. If anyone shows the least regret, I switch to a genuine plea to try to remember next time. But that woman today was just so dismissive that she needed her ears pinned back. Well, at least I'm not at risk for uclers because I don't suppress my feelings too much.

Anyone who's read this far, thanks and feel free to reply with your own pet peeve, even if it's people like me. Or even me in particular. You read my rants, I'll read yours.

I sort of lost interest after the first couple of paragraphs, but I think the point is that she was waiting to pinch a loaf and the person ahead of her didn't flush...or something...and it brings up all sorts of issues because it's a DUmmy we're talking about.

So this pretty much will be the cause of her soon-to-be-self-diagnosed PTSD, except in her case it will be Post Turd Stress Disorder, and we will all have to pay for her meds and therapy.  Leave aside, of course, that the offending turds may have already been there? Don't know...don't care. $17 trillion in debt and a madman in the White House desperate to bomb brown people, and she's worried about a toilet.

As you said, on a scale of average DUmmie problems, this was pretty lame.  At least the UPS gal hit the toilet.  Some pretty epic OCD at work here.

[jukin]

DUchebag projection, plain and simple

[Carl]

Personally I find people that don`t flush less then human,I mean wtf?

Now having said that there was this little line in the story..."Luckily she'd stopped to sign papers at the office".
Uhm,no...what papers would a UPS driver have to sign in 2013?

The number of idiots that don't flush the toilet in public places is mind boggling. My years in the restaurant business has taught me to never use a public toilet unless it absolutely necessary. Had a truck driver that would come in first thing in the morning for his delivery that shit so much it stopped the damned thing up.

This was back before the low flow toilets too.  What got me was we was his first delivery. One would think he would do it at the hotel room that was 2 miles up the road.   He must have hit the flush at least 3 times too!  Finally heard enough from the cooks that had to clean it up that I got pissed off and locked the door before he showed up. Told him sorry about his luck and he could just shit in his rig and clean it up.  

The next two stores on his list after us started doing it too. Area Supervisor finally called the delivery company and got him off our route.

I really feel for the ladies.

I wish we had a "Hide Thread" function like a lot of boards.

There's no need for repulsive vulgarity. The DUmmies are bad enough.

There was a big big big campfire on this very subject two, three, weeks ago, in which the primitives argued about why some solid wastes float, and others sink to the bottom of the commode.

The only reason I didn't bring it over was because it made me think of my twin Atman.

When you saw DUmmy goes on DU to rant about unflushed turds in the header, did you expect something else?

It was exactly as advertised.

Easy enough to avoid: don't click on threads with headlines that talk about excreta, feminine hygiene products, roadkill recipes, or anything else that offends you.

Favorite lines in the whole darn story. You lying, lieface. Everyone knows DUmmies are cowards.

Those lines, and the one about how this primitive basically "hung around" Hell's Angels. A DUmmie would either get the hell beat out of them or would just be the laughing stock of wherever 81 was hanging out.

have turned up floating on the DU

[Gina]

LOL.  If I go in the bathroom at a public place and it's not flushed. I will not use that stall.  So if she came after me chastising me I would have put my foot up her fat ass.  "Hey bitch! prove the turd is mine!"  What a beast!  

[AprilRazz]

But it is OK to defecate all over the place at an occupy camp?

You know, I have my own personal pet peeve. People that crap on police cars rile me up a notch or two...

(Though I doctored this one a bit for more Krugmanian clarity)

Make the chick grab a DNA sample and test it.

Ha, if the turd don't float then the person is dehydrated.  a possible physical problem.

Better to go into a toilet with a floating turd then to find one covered with liquid stuff, just nasty.

The turds that sink to the bottom of the tank and the ones that float are much like a tell tale of the humans health.   

Some release this black tar like substance or bright yellow slimy crap---- a sign the liver needs to be checked out.

This is a not a problem to ignore, even the Romans back then knew that the health of a person came from their bowels or urine.

Possibily

Cat on the key board again.

This is not a question on nasty stuff, this is a discussion on normal VS. abnormal health issues.

Gallbladder has stones the poop may become white, or in animals a big problem   dog or cat poops white get them to the vet, STAT.     

Kids begin to poop odd colors, get them to the ER, lord knows what that means.

Our greatest old time doctors have stated that the health of a person comes from the bowel.

So one finds a turd in a public toilet,  just flush the damn thing and do not sit on the seat,.  The best thing we can  do for our daughters is to teach them how to squat over a seat.  How to pull their panty up with panty hoes and do their business.

Is there anyone out there that teaches a girl child how to protect themselves in a bathroom after they were potty trained at 2-3 ?????

[JohnnyReb]

UPS delivers packages and leaves them.....right? Well, that's just what the UPS driver did.

Maybe the driver should have asked DUmmie to sign for the delivery. What she did with it then was her problem.

Some people act like they were raised in a barn.

Are you saying the cat typed your first post? 

[BlueStateSaint]

Are you saying the cat typed your first almost every post? 

That is one smart feline!  Fixed for you, Gina.

[Wineslob]

Wow, shitty.

[Ptarmigan]

What I do not get is the DUmmy is complaining about unflushed toilets yet they have no problems with defecating in public by the Occutards. Am I missing something??????????????
