S/O Bathroom Line Etiquette

[Anonymous]

I was at a brewery over the weekend where there was one bathroom (2nd was out of order) and a few port-a-potties about 20 feet away from the main building. I was in line after a couple beers, and had already broken the seal so REALLY had to go, ASAP. A woman (maybe late 20s) with a 2 year old and a 5 or 6 year old was in front of me. I kept talking about how she had to go and it was an emergency. The woman in front of me let me front of her, but the woman with the kid in diapers and elementary did not. hey weren't making a big scene, but she seemed insistent they had to go. As we were waiting, I kept trying to talk to the young mom about how badly I had to go. I was tipsy, and had broken the seal as I said, so the beer pee felt URGENT. She just kept saying ' I understand, so do my kids'.She pointed out that her 2 year old had a diaper on but she wanted to reinforce potty training. As I pointed out, there were port-a-potties across the field with no line. But I was honestly afraid if I ran over there, I would pee myself. I'm a drunk peer.

The bathroom FINALLY opened, and she and the 2 kids went in. They took AGES, and I could hear them singing the washing hands song for each one of the 3 of them. Was she wrong to not let me run in, pee super fast, and then let them have their half hour?

I see what you’re trying to do OP but this isn’t a clever post.

You are an adult and if you were having an emergency you should have gone to the portapotties. if you can't hold your pee in public you should be the one wearing a diaper.

+1 I never understand people who a) spend enough time on here that they think everyone will get a reference to another post (I just happened to see that other one in recent topics) and b) think a post attempting some kind of satire of another post will ever be funny, especially when the original post wasn't that unusual or memorable in the first place.

Total fail, OP.

DP but I think this was her point, that if it were posted from the other perspective - everyone would say that the adult should go to the portapotties, not the kid. But because she was the mom of kids, she was in the wrong.

Or she could have been about to have a really disastrous explosive diarrhea event...

Then ask directly. In an actual emergency don't be passive aggressive and make comments to others trying to get a 3rd party to act.

Another reason why kids don’t belong at breweries!

Yes she was.

This post made me laugh so hard!
