I was embarrassed today

February 26, 2026 7:58pm CST
Today I had lots on away from the house and went to another town for my bikes health check That done I went to Aldi to pick up some beans Half way round Aldi I felt a rumbling in my tummy Oh dear, I had to move at some pace but I did indeed reach the toilet in time I even got my bike trousers off in time too Well done me Did what I had to do, made sure the toilet was clean after I finished , I used the brush, no choice, honestly I looked around for air freshener There was none So I opened the door not knowing there was a line of people waiting to use the facility One poor young girl almost turned green. Another guy swore a bad word as I held the door open for what seemed like an age The aroma moved quickly and I didn't know where to look Not knowing what to say or what to do I said " Chicken Curry " And I left without saying I had used all the toilet paper

I can just imagine someone using the toilet and turning around to reach for toilet paper only to realize there’s none there. My mom really had to go number two and we managed to find a place that had a bathroom. We waited in line, which was brutal, and when we finally got to the bathroom there was no paper. Good thing she had tissues in her bag.

@Ineeddentures I have no idea. There was a sink, but I don’t remember if there was any soap.

Oh no. That sounds like one of those painfully embarrassing but oddly funny real-life moments we all fear. You handled it the only way you could in that kind of situation and at least you cleaned up after yourself

Poor you but most of my pity goes to those who had to follow you AND find out about the 'no paper'.

chicken curry! My cousin always carry a matchstick with him. After using the toilet he'd light a match and drop it in the toilet bowl. He told me it gets rid of the unwanted smell.
