Mysteries in a Public Bathroom: Chapter Twenty-Something

[mer]

Scene: a bathroom stall. The floor is wet (per usual) but also littered with confetti-like strips of toilet paper and...

Cake crumbs?


Speculation: one-person bathroom-stall birthday party. For the loneliest, creepiest girl in the world.

Sounds like a story starter! ;)

(Yea, I would think of that. *hides her little book of stories she's been ignoring forever*)

i noticed that too, but it was shredded cardboard as soemthing in the tp despeser appears to be eating the cardboard from the inside of the roll. :D

NO YOU LIAR IT WAS CAKE TAKE IT BACK

*cough*

Heh. I thought it could also have been bread. But cardboard is boring. You are going to force me to share the grosser of the Bathroom Mysteries if you're not careful.

Bulemia.

Really dry bulemia then... they were dry cake crumbs beside the usual "the janitors apparently don't know how to mop" mess.

Fiction has nothing on Real Life weirdness.

There has to be a story in that. Maybe twelve. Hmmm....

OMG! Please tell me that you've heard the "shit a piece of pie" comedy sketch by The Frantics (the same troop that did "Boot To The Head")!!! This is like scary...

Where the hell is rev_e when i need 'im?!?!!??

"A serving of pie!"

"Flaky crust, gooey filling?"

[merriehaskell.livejournal.com]

O.o

If you can find a recording of it somewhere, it really is good clean (sorta) sketch comedy!

Nothing to do with anything else, but I just happened to note that in Dutch, "merrie" means "mare". THought you might like to know,

[merriehaskell.livejournal.com]

No way! Merrie was supposedly my Dutch ancestress's name, but we always assumed that it was some Ellis Island fuck up. Or my great-grandmother's crazy interpretation of her mother-in-law's first name. (That latter isn't so far-fetched: Great-Grandma's mom was Amelia, and her mother-in-law was Merrie (or Mary; it's spelled inconsistently everywhere), and my most recent namesake, my grandfather's older sister, was Merrie Emilia. You see how we made assumptions...) Merrie always seemed like, well, "merry."

This is cool. Fear my Dutchness!

Have you looked for them on the Ellis Island website? It's a lot of fun to play with. You can see original ship' registers, even (warning: some of those are two pages and it often brings up the 2nd page, without the names - so scroll back one). I was able to find all kinds of great-grandparents / aunts on it. In my case he first names varied quite a bit, even between, say, the wife's record of the husband she was going to meet in the US and the husband's record from his own sailing, some months earlier.
