I thought I had seen everything...

OK, so I'm done with my 4 day trip. I'm trying to catch my commute flight home. Wearing a tie and slacks isn't the most comfortable attire, especially for travel. So, I headed to the men's room to change prior to the flight.

I'm sitting by the gate now, still not quite sure of what just took place just a few moments ago. I headed into a stall so that I could change in some sort of privacy. After all, it is an airport bathroom. There was a man, a full grown adult man, normal looking in every way, standing at one of the urinals. Nothing out of the ordinary in the men's room last I knew. I could "hear" him taking a leak, but something wasn't quite right. I wasn't trying to pay attention to this man relieving his bladder, but something just caught the edge of my attention.

My brain finally processed that the reason I was now paying attention was that something didn't "sound" right. I had to look over. I did. Then, I wished I hadn't. This man was standing in front of the urinal, peeing.... on the floor. Yup, you read that right. He was standing in front of it, but pissing directly on the floor rather than INSIDE the urinal. Maybe he missed the urination memo. Maybe he's not "all-there." Maybe his eye sight is horrible. I don't know. I don't want to know. I just don't get it. Every time I think the general public isn't all that bad, I see something like that! *shakes head*

If anyone has one of those big pen things from Men in Black, I'd like to set up an appointment. Feel free to email me. Thanks.
