hey Park Sloper,
thanks! unfortunately you’ll have to register or sign in to your facebook account to vote. a pain, i know, but figure most people have facebook accounts (i don’t)!
that was prolly the most satisfying poop ever though, lech.
And then – insult to injury – I made good on my promise to the McDonalds employees and purchased (and even consumed) an Egg McMuffin. That’s probably what cause the chest pains.
the McDs was very humbling experience to say the least.
I doubt was stress-anxiety attack…you’re cool as a cucumber at all times, no doubt.
Maybe should listen to m4l and try a union job.
Sounds like we’re right around the corner from each other Pete.
Yeah the McDonalds thing was pretty degrading. There is more detail to it, as with all things. I ran in to the McDonalds and there was this homeless guy pulling on the bathroom door, which was locked. So I ask the people behind the counter if I need a key, and tell them I’ll totally buy breakfast or whatever, I just need to use the bathroom first. So this woman behind the counter presses a buzzer to open the bathroom for me. But of course homeless guy immediately goes in. So I look at the people begind the counter like WTF but they look back at me like, hey buddy, what do you think we’re going in there to get homeless guy out for you? So they buzz the door again, and I go in. To be clear there actually was a little flimsy door with gaping holes and a broken lock for the stall. Homeless guy was already in there and I told him GTFO, I buzzed the door, you’re gonna have to fucking wait. So I get the barely private stall while homeless guy apparently starts showering in the sink. It was a really awesome New York moment. Makes me think of the Onion article I posted the other day.
Lech, time to switch field to a cushy gig where you dont have to think and work those long hours – ie maybe banking
l, glad to hear you’re ok. You might have gotten a stress-induced anxiety episode. New job, plumbing problems, and stomach issues all at one time. That could do it.
I had a similar incident recently where I got on the train and then had to get off quickly. I used the bathroom in the police station that’s inside the Hoyt Schermerhorn A train stop!!!!!
obviously gas can give chest pain and already knew had some intestinal issue. That was the funniest part —- using the bathroom at McDs.
Does suck that M (formerly V) doesn’t run on wkends. The M seems to run less frequently than the V. Perhaps just walking from 6th avenue is quicker anyway. My office faces Citicorp. That station is horrible anyway.
