Gimme a (toilet) break


KLIA: Approaching the common main entrance to the rest rooms, I saw a cleaning lady, I took a quick glance at the gender sign and made a left towards the Gents. But the lady was staring at me. Walking past her, she followed me with her eyes. As I entered the wash basin area, she was actually tailing me, shouting 'Oi! Oi!'. Crap! Did I just enter the Ladies? Bladder was about to burst, result of trying out some 'water therapy' in the morning and not making any stops all the way from Sentral. I was on the verge of panic. My engorged bladder would undoubtedly relief itself should some lady in the loo screams. Then I see urinals. MALE urinals. The aunty saw them around the same time, too. She hushed, blushed and got the **** out. I skipped, unzipped and let the waste out. Coming out of the dunny, the lady was nowhere to be seen, her bucket and mop waiting her return from exile somewhere.


CHANGI: Bladder was about to explode again. Toilet, check. Gents, check. I hurried in. Then I see the above on the wall! Did I actually goof and brought my grief into the Ladies this time? I was livid. In Singapore, they'll brand me a perv, jail me and the papers will have my sorry face all over it. Just then, a great sight for exploding male bladders: The urinal. It was the Gents, after all, 'Mommy's Helper' or not. Just why would they still call it 'Mommy's Helper' when it's in Dad's John?

Twice within 3 hours, I was mortified with the prospect of having entered the Ladies. Wonder if I should do the water therapy again.......

just admit that deep down, you do want to stumble on purpose into the Ladies'.

UglyButAdorable said...

bro..at least is only half as bad as mine...:(

DWA I made a timetable for myself going the mens. If the timetable should/need changes, I adjust accordingly. So I have little problem in that area.

However it is different on my bowels issues... very difficult to timetable .... especially this festive season...

Cik Puan Sri Quzz said...

wutsup with the "grip" yope?? i need an extra "tuition" on that subject...huh!!

D.N.A.S said...

Kudos to Changi airport management for encouraging the Dads to change diapers. Muahahahahaha!

akula said...

I guess the rules changed down there in Singapore universe.

Errmm..so this entry is all abt your potty experiences? Menarik sungguh wahai cik abang!

Blimey. This reminded me of the time I went to Bali. I went to the toilet at the airport. There was no one in there, so I went straight to the cubicle.

When I came out, my friends were waiting to take my picture. Yup. I went to the gents by mistake.

The same thing happened when we landed in KLIA after the trip. I swear it was a genuine mistake.

They should make the male/female sign more obvious lah.

Or stop providing free drinks during the flight he he

Da Winged Acrophobic said...

shionge, redhead..... glad I did so.

blackfeline, babe..... I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else then. Except, in the sea, river or a swimming pool, perhaps? Heheheheheheh!

uba..... betol. Yours still takes the biscuit.

Da Winged Acrophobic said...

dade..... you're lucky to have such a system. Mine has the tendency to trigger at the most inconvenient times.

kuzz..... I believe the operative word is kemut. This is going to give my blog an R18 rating.

dnas..... That's all good but call it Daddy's Helper in the Gents la kan.

Da Winged Acrophobic said...

akula..... rules changed? Sorry, but I won't go into the Ladies to find out.

cosmic gurl..... gimme a break :)

lily..... the world is such that you wouldn't have been labelled a perv and had to go to jail.

Da Winged Acrophobic said...

east43st..... I didn't know it's 'good for men'. Okay, it's worth the anguish and panic then.

jules..... wish I were there. If only to spend the weekend with you fellas. And to look at VL to refresh my memories.

anis..... the water therapy is good for both women and men. Helps purge toxins and waste, assists in weight loss, too. I'm investigating the 'men..' part, too.

Fiza said...

i can't remember which mosque this was but the sign for the men's had a silhouette head with a songkok on and the ladies had a hijab on.

kalau konfuse jugak, tak tahu la.

Tynna said...

Come into my parlour said the Cat to the Acrophobic..come to NightCrossings too...come....

Da Winged Acrophobic said...

9..... confusion strikes when you least expect it, especially if one is in a rush.

blackfeline..... on the way!
