CHILL OUT: Bathroom Issues
youtube

People nowadays are getting all worked up and offended about things that really don't matter that much. Now I'm not talking about the big issues like abortion, or guns, or religion, or homosexuality or anything like that. I'm talking about the little things that people freak out about that really aren't going to exponentially affect humanity in any way. This new segment I'm starting will address various issues that people really need to chill out about. Today I'm talking about:

BATHROOM ISSUES

Your business in the bathroom is your business. Buuuuuuut....everybody poops. It's just a fact of life. People get really weird about stuff that goes on in the bathroom. Either you are super awkward any time anybody talks about any kind of bodily function or you think poop, butt, and fart jokes are absolutely hilarious and can't stop cracking them at inappropriate times. There are definitely things about the bathroom that people freak out about WAY TOO MUCH.
Toilet Paper. I have seen people rage about which way the toilet paper goes. If you have a preference, then just change it. It literally takes 3 seconds.
Speaking of changing toilet paper, why do people get SO upset when they go to the bathroom and find an empty toilet paper roll? You should always check for TP before you sit your butt down! If you don't and you find out there is no toilet paper, that really sucks. I've been there and I would not like to go back. But you shouldn't blame the person who used the last of the previous roll. It would've been nice to replace it but unless you laid some ground rules about TP replacement and restocking, it's not their responsibility to replace the TP. So just chill.
Toilet seats. Girls, calm the heck down about toilet seats. If you come in the bathroom and the seat is in the upright position, the wrong choice is to yell and scream and go kick your brother/husband/male housemate. With one little finger, you can just push the seat back down and ta da!! Totally ready for your tush to do what it needs to do. If you don't want to use your finger than you can just as easily use your foot. "Well I bet you've never run into the bathroom and sat in the toilet because seat was up and got your booty all wet!!" Yes. Yes I have. I have 4 brothers and a father who all happen to pee with the seat up and often leave it that way. But it was my fault for failing to see the blatantly obvious upright toilet seat. Like I said before, it's not their responsibility to put the toilet seat back down. It's polite and courteous, but should not be an expectation. Just look where you're putting your bare bum or it's going to get wet!
Justifiable freak out: Pee/hair on the toilet seat. That's just gross. Clean up your mess. Sheesh.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
