Ever walk into the wrong restroom?

[TheBrew]

Actually just two weeks ago. But my keens senses noticed there weren't any urinals and did a quick evac.

 

[Neroon]

I do the same thing, check to see if there are any urinals. What's screwy is if you use a restroom that doesn't have them at all. Then you're never quite sure ......

 

[trekkiedane]

Nope, not that I recall anyway, but as this is Scandinavia the worst that could come from it would be a couple of 'funny' remarks.

Women do it all the time when they don't want to queue so I suggest you all not worry about it.

Indeed, plus: why do 'restrooms' have the same size when it is a fact that females of the opposite gender actually need more room (more stalls)??? - Thumbdown to designers of such places

ETA:

The smell was --- a bit off. I don't know just different.

Right on the spot: the missing smell of 'urinal cakes' is a dead giveaway

Yes, usually when I'm distracted. It was years ago. I've heard of a woman who walked into a Men's room and yelled at a guy for being in there.

I think the local professional sports arena installed twice as many women's restrooms as men's. Along with decreasing the wait time... I wonder if ti's increased the rate of "oops... wrong room".

Not by choice.

When I was little (possibly as late as seven years old), if I was out with my mother (which I almost always was, because she would never leave me at home alone) and she had to use the washroom, she would drag me into the women's washroom with her. Or if I had to go, she would take me into the women's and make me go in there.

My mother has a lot to answer for.

This explains so much.

And no, I never did that myself.

I only make this mistake when I'm wearing my kilt.

I only make this mistake when I'm wearing my kilt.

Then again if you were in the mens' room and someone walked in while you were wearing the kilt.....

We moved into a new building last spring and they didnt label the bathrooms right away and I walked in a couple of women's bathrooms. Luckily there was no woman in them at the time.

Not a restroom, but when I went out on a school trip several years ago, I wandered idly one way through a park when a friend from about 100 yards away called me over. Ignoring him (as I wasn't sure why he was calling me) I continued, only to stumble upon two female classmates, crouching behind a tree, ready to unleash hell as it were. I quickly doubled back.

 

[SeerSGB]

Myself, nope-- outside cleaning them as part of a job that is.

Back around Christmas though I did have 3 older women walk into the men's room at Wal-Mart while my son was using the facilities.

Nice. Reminds me of this.

... continued, only to stumble upon two female classmates, crouching behind a tree, ready to unleash hell as it were. I quickly doubled back.

That just gave me a bad flashback - basicly the same thing, but in a station, on the walkway between two platforms as my office closed for the night.

I just remember seeing someone sitting down out the corner of my eye and not noticing why she was crouching until someone shouted "theres a puddle!"

 

[tharpdevenport]

No, never. But I remember sitting on the toilet and seeing my sister's shoes walk into the next stall and asking her what the hell she was doing in the Men's Room, which she pomptly ran out of.

I did once a year or two ago. It was while I was at school which is kind of sad because I had used those rest rooms many many times, but different buildings had the rest rooms on different sides (the building I was in had men's on the right and women's on the left, the building it was attached to has it the other way around) and I guess I just wasn't thinking.

Luckily it was the middle of the afternoon (the school has far more classes scheduled during the morning then the afternoon) and no one was around or in the women's room.

 

[Chris3123]

Nice. Reminds me of this.

I hate you.

 

[TGTheodore]

Hey ... sometimes when you walk into the right restroom, it's still the wrong restroom ...

That's going straight into my Favourites.

Yes, but in my defense I was in junior high school and had to go so bad I wasn't paying attention. No girls in there, but I was laughed at by several who say me go in from outside. At least they were good humored about it.
