One joke I saw on a bathroom stall wall ...

To do is to be (Plato)
To be is to do (Sartre)
Do be do be do (Sinatra)

Trouble is, I've seen so many different versions with the lines attributed to different philosophers. So who REALLY said the first two?

Another I saw ...

I've just dropped a twelve inch turd. Is this a record?

Underneath someone had written ...

It might be but you're not putting it on MY record player.

Do I need to get a life?

I think he's just talking about funny things you've seen written in bathroom stalls or in public places on walls.

Another one I saw:

Neurotics paint castles in the air,
Psychotics live in them,
Psychiatrists collect the rent.

it said, in giant letters:

WHY REFUSE LOVE VICKI

that was a long time ago but i still think about it every day.

There is actually an entire field of study devoted to this phenomenon (the official name of which is "latrinalia", when referring to bathroom graffiti, the most common type, and has existed since Roman times), and there several books that have been written on the topic.

Fascinating stuff!!

----------------------------------------------------------------

"Here I sit, brokenhearted
Tried to sh*t, only farted"

Classic latrinalia.


Suzanne: I never use catalogs. I'd rather go in the store and see all the salespeople groveling and sucking up to you. Julia: Pardon me, I never knew they were so solicitous at the K-Mart.

Jailyard...you minx.

You stole the one I saw last night. I saw it last night at the Draft House and I was tickled pink. I never heard that one before. So, when I took my newly learned poem to the table and everyone said "oh, god...heard that one," I literally WAS brokenhearted. And then I farted.

In a nutshell: what Jailyard said.

Nice one musical_nerd. One that isn't on the list:

Piece of grafitti high up on the wall.

My grandmother, may she rest in peace used to say, " I don't like to ride the subways in NYC because they have giraffi written on the walls."

When I was 13, I rember using the restroom at the International House of Pancakes in Valley Stream, Long Island (it is still there, I believe), and I vividly remember the following scribbled over the stall:

(one hand): Johnny eats Beth's p****. Beth sucks Johnny's c***.

(follow-up hand): Better than pancakes, that's for sure
