Hotel Bathroom Battle: Friends Clash Over Number 2 Etiquette

Picture this: you’re on a trip with a friend, sharing a hotel room to save some cash. You’re both adults, but suddenly you find yourselves in a heated debate over bathroom etiquette. Is it okay to go number 2 in the hotel room bathroom, or should you trek down to the lobby for that? One woman found herself in this exact predicament, and the internet is divided. Let’s dive into this bizarre, yet relatable, bathroom battle.

Toilet Troubles: When Friends Can’t Agree on Bathroom Boundaries

So, here’s the scoop (pun intended): our protagonist and her friend Jamie are sharing a hotel room on a trip. Jamie insists that number 2s should only be done in the lobby bathroom, while our germaphobe friend prefers the privacy and convenience of the room bathroom. Despite offering to buy spray, our protagonist can’t seem to convince Jamie that it’s not disrespectful to use the room bathroom for its intended purpose. To make matters worse, our protagonist has IBS, making those lobby trips even more difficult. But she doesn’t feel like she should have to disclose that. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this stinky situation…
