I don't worry about the mirrors over the urinals. I fear the day when they start installing them under them, though.

I remember a place (now sadly gone) in Manhattan where both doors just said "Whomsoever" on them.
(They were both single-unit bathrooms, not multiple stalls, so it really didn't matter which was which.)
Quoth Jester View PostBut that didn't stop one intrepid and impressively talented girl, who actually used a urinal.
They did used to make womens' urinals. Some places installed them in the mens' rooms anyway. On first encountering one of these, I did wonder why it stuck out so far forward.
We went where the hands were pointing, which was the correct way to do it. The signs were correct. In other words, the word "men" was on the womens room door, but pointed to the mens room door. All you had to do was follow the signs.
(Not that I've ever been drunk, but still. Sleep-deprived is just as bad, at least according to the NJ Motor Vehicle Commission.)

Why were we so confused? These were the bathroom doors. Diabolical, don't you think? Picture looking at this shit after a few drinks. Yeah. Evil. I love it! (Okay, I'll admit, I don't know if that picture is of the actual bathroom doors I faced, or a pair like them somewhere else, as that was many, many years ago. But the idea is the exact same.)
"STOP! You have entered the Men's Room. If this is not what you wanted, please turn around.""If we refund your money, give you a free replacement and shoot the manager, then will you be happy?" - sign seen in a restaurant

Quoth CrazedClerkthe2nd View PostThere's a place called McGuire's Pub in Pensacola, Fl that has a similar set up, when you walk into the Men's Room the first thing you see is a giant sign that says something like:
"STOP! You have entered the Men's Room. If this is not what you wanted, please turn around."
My bathroom story is after a day of outlet shopping, my friend and I stopped at Friendly's for some food. I was tired and cranky from lack of food, and too mcuh walking. So we ate, and then both got up to use the facilities, before driving home. I followed my friend in, we both used the stalls, and all the while I kept thinking how much it smelled like pee. So we come out, wash our hands, and realize the pee smell is coming from the URINAL on the other side of the stalls. That's right, she had just wandered into the men's room, and I followed, not seeing the sign! Fortunately no one came in, but we RAN out the door once we realized our error.

There's a bar out where my dad lives that has a dog on each bathroom door. One says "Pointers" and the other says "Setters." Had to think about that one briefly the first time.
When I moved to Wales, first Welsh words I ever learned were the words for Men and Ladies
I was at a car boot sale (flea market) once in the UK, it was held at a small horse racing track, and the center building was open for using the facilities and refreshments. Took me ages to figure out the right loo, wish I could recall exactly what they said, but it was some obscure racing term, not anything obvious like Stallions and Fillies or anything.
Cutest signs I've seen were at Legoland, they showed little lego people of the right gender, but with their legs crossed
Madness takes it's toll....
Please have exact change ready.

There is one in a restaurant/bar here that has 'MEN' in letters about 3 feet tall, and underneath, it continues 'This is the ladies, you need the other door' in what looks like about 1/2 inch high lettering (and it has the same on the men's too)
