public-restroom etiquette

What we should all practice when visiting da "little boy's room" or "little girl's room".
"Top ten" public-restroom etiquette rules:
(1) Only stay as long as necessary, so dat other "in a hurry" folks can relieve themselves A.S.A.P. --- just "do your business", wash your hands, and vamoose!
(2) Only use da amount of RESOURCES dat you actually need, as well --- i.e., don't pull off "yards 'n' yards" of toilet-tissue or paper towels, just dispense da necessary volume of liquid soap or hand-sanitizer, run da faucet sparingly, etc. Remember dat whoever is providing said welcome lavatory is HIMSELF having to pay for said costly consumables!
(3) Speaking of toiletry-supplies, if you'll need to be spending any length of time on da porcelain throne, check out da tissue-dispenser --- if it's nearly empty and there's a replacement roll within arm's reach, utilize part of your extended "oval seat" period to swap out said mostly-consumed fiber cylinder; use da last of da old roll for your own present wiping.
(4) Remember to flush da toilet afterwards… duhhh!! Besides being far less gross for da unsuspecting "next" person, it can also reduce da issues discussed in Rule #9 below!
(5) And then speaking of "yuckies", "be a sweetie and cleanse da seatie" if you "sprinkled when you tinkled"! (Bonus reminder --- most people prefer if you put both da seat and lid down when you leave.)
Last five of da "top ten" public-restroom etiquette rules:
(6) Also tidy up da ROOM if it needs it --- flush down any dropped tissue, ram any “protruding” paper towels back down into da wastebasket, etc.
(7) As mentioned in Rule #2, whoever is "hosting" da bathroom is also PAYING for whatever resources dat said facility requires! So be sure to "turn everything off" before ya just blithely waltz off --- close da faucets firmly, and USUALLY (see below) switch off da electric lights and fan.
(8) If someone tries da locked door of da bathroom while you're still in there, keep this event in mind, both with regards to how rapidly you try to finish up, and also to then notice if said next user is still waiting outside da door when you start to exit; if so, practice "bodettiquette" and DON'T turn off da lights! Remember, this other person may really be urgently "needing to go", so you will want to make things quick and easy for him.
(9) If you "made a big stink" during your call-of-nature-related activities, you actually should **not** turn da vent-fan back off when you're done. And --- especially if there are likely to be other people located close to and/or passing by da door of da bathroom soon --- be sure to **close said door**, as well, to help keep da stench contained till da fan can sufficiently draw it away.
(10) Promptly tell da staff if da restroom needs attention, so dat da next user isn't greeted wif a nasty surprise, such as empty paper-dispensers or a clogged sink!

public rut

People that go to a public school but hang out with the private school kids merely because they wish they had the same lifestyle
Person 1: Why does Jane always hang around people from our school? Person 2: Oh, you know she can't afford our school. She's stuck in the public rut.

Public figure

How can you be a public figure on a private space?
Hym "If you are a 'public figure' then you occupy a PUBLIC space and if it's a public space I have a right to occupy it as well. You don't give a fuck about the rights of corporations... Except for the corporations that allow you to sit on your ass and work 2 fucking hours a day while mocking me and allowing the people you claim to hate to profit off of something that doesn't belong to them."

Clovelly Public School

A state-operated primary school located in Bronte, Sydney. Eastern suburbs parents send their kids here while they choose a private school to transfer them to. It should be noted that by year 2, most of the students will have an IQ higher than their teacher.
Blonde woman in Porsche SUV:

"I'll come over after I drop Sebastian off at day-care."

"Isn't he nine-years-old?"
"Sorry, I meant Clovelly Public School."

The public

No you assholes are just as bad as that rich fucking retard you hate. I've seen you shit-heads trample eachother to death over black friday sales. You're boycotting carbonated poison over a guy wearing a dress. You can barely figure out which version of cancer stick you want to die from. I drive drunk (after drinking a 24 pack of Bud Platinum) better than 75% of you assholes drive sober. I literally have better drunk coordination than the greatest MMA fighter of all time. And don't even get me started on the witch burning. Oh! And the imposed schizophrenia! The people following me around. Making sex noises and pretending to be me. It's hard to even make the case that you should have a say in your own lives. Even the WORST THINGS I'VE EVER DONE are STILL entirely theoretical at this point and even the NON-THEORETICAL THINGS have been as subtle and harmless as a warm breeze.
Hym "How about instead of the public having any kind of say in anything I do or think, we start some kind of buyout system where I can opt out of society and get the fuck away from you all as quickly and throughly as possible? You hate all of the things that I am anyway. To trust the public with any decision making power I would have to actually pretend that you wouldn't suffocate me under your heel for a 50% off Ps5. You don't even want me here. So, yeah, buyout system. You all just go fuck yourselves. I just do whatever. Everything's kosher."
