Must share my Karen experience today. Weird
 
It rained all night, none stop today. Slept in, decided to get out to visit my rental to see if there are any leaks. Nope, good. Being wet and wanted something hot for lunch, I decided to stop at this Vietnamese joint about a mile away for some much needed hot pho. It did wonders btw.

Anyway, I am wet due to lack of parking in their small lot so I walked about a block. No big. Got a seat and decided to go wash my hands and dry my face off. It was a small mom and pop place with one bathroom. I only washed my hands, and pulled a couple of towels to dry my face and wipe my glasses down. I was in there for no more then a min. As soon as I sat down at my table, this two woman started at me about wiping down the toilet seat and that it was unacceptable to leave full of pee. They even claimed that I peeed all over the floor. I was shocked and had to think for a second about what I had done wrong. She now points her finger in my face and demanded I clean it up for her. The other fat lady didn't say much but stood there beside her looking at me shaking her head and nodding to others pointing at me. I felt that I had to defend myself and said out loud that I didn't use the toilet but only to dry my face from the rain. Thinking about it, the floor is pretty wet from people walking in from the rain. Quickly I decided to sit there and not allow these dip sihts to ruin my day, enjoy my meal.

At times, I just wish these people would slip and fall in front of a speeding school bus in the rain. They suck the life out of people. Stuff like this was unheard of 20 years ago.

Tell her to 'lick it'

The other fat lady I guessed they were fat. Fat and ugly.

So you dripped water all over the bathroom including the toilet seat is what I’m hearing.
But it’s someone else’s fault they didn’t want to sit on a wet seat after seeing you go in there. Did I miss something?

Excellent. Sounds like something from curb your enthusiasm.

seems to me you missed that he was innocent of what he was being accused of.

Thanks, Paul.

I thought I had reading comprehension issues.

Sadly, most middle age ladies in America today are just a bit pudgy. Lets put it this way, this one has 911 turbo hips and big flabby arms. Something I notice when she painted at me as she nodded to others sitting nearby.

I jsut don't understand some people. They go in, see a mess and immediately need to blame someone without thinking it through.

Just like when you get into an elevator that someone else before you farted in and when you exit and the next person enters, they automatically blame it on you...

Absolutely

It's times like this that I like to start speaking Chinese. Especially like throwing in the use of búshì ("bu shi-r" in the Mandarin = a negation phrase meaning no, not) because it sounds like bullsiht, so they get really confused by what you're saying.

The critters and I were walking around the block at night, and this woman caught up just past a turn.
Scared the feline a little who was behind.
(Never saw her before after a decade and a half living of here.)
"Is this your cat?" she asked demanding. Huh? "Yeah, isn't he a great one. Walks with us all th.."
"He looks like my neighbor's cat a few blocks away"
(Never saw another that looked like him)
"Are you sure he's your cat?"

Sure lady. I kidnapped your neighbor's cat and now it's following me and the dog around. Geesh.

To the OP : sure you were a bit embarrassed and defensive about being accused of something you didn't do, but the whole situation could have been avoided if you had left the washroom in the condition you found it (or better).

Reminds me of two stories.

1. I worked in a mostly female office. Two / sometimes Three guys. One day female manager pulls us aside. said "This is really uncomfortable, but you guys need to quit peeing on the seat."She takes us to the stall, shows us a thick yellow urine stain on seat.

The manager, knowing I like to drink copious amounts of everything, looks at me. Truth be told, I do. I drink big gulp quantities of water, coffee, anything. I am the obvious culprit.

"Not my piss" I told her. "Think about it, I drink seven gallons of water a day. My pee is diluted as hell, not yellow at all."

If you need anything, let me know, and I walked out.

2. Another office, more females. This time an elderly male coworker who was dribbling all over the place. The staff even put those animal spill pads under the toilet.
Not me, I spent every encounter cleaning the top of the bowl. Squeaky clean. After some months, a meeting was held to address the issue. The female staff who complained also stood up for me stating I wasn't the problem. At the end of the "talk", I told them I had spent time cleaning the bowl, and in the future, since they were bringing up the issue, to please lift the lid after they were finished to make sure nothing had "splattered" back up against the lid. "You'd be surprised what bodily fluids get kicked back up on the seat" I said.

The "staff" fell silent.No more meetings occurred. :D

Edit- I am going to remove the word Karen and acknowledge with a screen name "LEAKYSEALS" I should not be commenting on this thread! :)

Exactly, plus no woman wants to sit in water or pee, and we're not about to figure out which it is.

Oh, the woman's weight is totally irrelevant.

Norm K 02-20-2024 04:24 AM

So who was the Karen in this story?

One does wonder how the event would have played out had the genders been reversed.
