Proposal To USMB Mods and Members: Contest to Design Bathroom Signs

[emilynghiem]

Dear USMB Mods and Members:

May I suggest we host a national contest to design the best, worst, or funniest
bathroom signs. They can be symbols, words, whatever. They can be serious
like the Kroger sign that went viral. Or silly like someone's suggestion to
segregate by "Indoor Plumbing" and "Outdoor Plumbing".

How about the traditional: He/She/It or Men's Women's Janitor?

If an official contest site could be set up, this could promote USMB as the sponsor,
and even raise money by selling ads or having the public pay $1-5 to vote on best sign, worst entry,
most and least politically correct, and funniest.

I think this contest could be fun, and raise money for nonprofit groups that provide work for vets either as security guards at restrooms or in construction to build or renovate single stall or unisex restroom facilities, in order to accommodate either transgender or other victims of rape, assault, harassment,
bullying or other crimes, who may require certain safeguards to feel comfortable in bathroom facilities.

What do you think? Don't you think America needs to lighten up on this issue?
Can we combine serious solutions and fun jokes in the same contest?

I think we need a separate contest to design a THANKS button just for this!
So I can give you Funny Thanks and Winner.

This is so funny I almost peed in my pants.
I will knock first, and make sure there are no predatory bears
in the ladies room first....

Thanks! Funny! and Winner!
Since I'm already biased, I cannot judge the contest
but yours is my favorite so far...(I'm still laughing
and will probably wake up my bf in the middle of the
night, still laughing)

Didn´t know it would have such a huge effect on you. Thanks for the reply

That actually sounds like fun, Emily.

Would the Mods approve a side project and website for it?
Could there be a public contest section started here and run it here?

I would want USMB to get the credit, publicity and direct any fundraising to select causes.
I think the site would blow up, people need comic relief on this issue!

Drop your drawers

M W WTF???

Here's a suggestion: Why don't you troglodytes either join the 21st and find a room with a sign that says "Restroom" in several languages, including Braille and consists of a room with a lock on the door that contains a toilet, a sink, a mirror, and an infant changing table?

Either that or go back to sitting on a plank over a hole in a unisex outhouse the way your 19th-century ancestors did?

This is a non-issue. Grow up.

^ Exactly Arianrhod
Neutral or Single stalled restrooms would
solve the problem, without forcing anyone to change their beliefs.
