<p>What the hell is going to be lurking in the bathroom? From what I can tell, the security for these resident halls are pretty damn good, they are probably some of the safest places to live in this country. That one post seemed like one big joke. Are there monsters lurking in the bathroom, the boogeyman? Screw putting on a bath robe, I can't afford a bath robe. I'll just stumble to the bathroom at night in my boxers.</p>
<p>timecruncher just scared the **** out of me!</p>
<p>i dont like using a shower that someone just used</p>
<p>No there's no bogeyman, but there are drunk college kids staggering around who might find it funny to harass someone taking a shower late at night. Also, security at most college dorms not in an urban environment quite frankly sucks, though it's something you probably shouldn't worry about.</p>
<p>I heard that large black men hide in the toilets of public dorm bathrooms. Their favorite game to play while down there is called "kiss the vertical smile."</p>
<p>Ah... "Kiss the vertical smile..." Those were the days.
But seriously... TimeCruncher, I think you're being a little bit too paranoid. I mean, I'm not going to carry a whistle around my neck just to go to the bathroom! While you do need to be careful, I think you're taking it to the extremes.</p>
<p>I must say as an RA, those tips are unbelievably paranoid. Security does not have to be THAT tight to be safe. We have a guard at the only entrance, and a person walking the halls every 30-45 minutes. I live in a coed dorm and have never had any problems, minus the occasional late night, member of the opposite sex who couldnt hold it to run down to their bathroom. Sure, its a little weird, but the dorms are safe. Screams are loud, and obvious, so a whistle is just plain weird.</p>
<p>I'd like to think his post was a joke, but I'm really not sure....</p>
<p>As an RA I get my own bathroom. It's pretty nice. I can take a three-hour crap and no one will care. Some of the other students here aren't RAs but they still get their own bathroom. At worst, every suite (no more than 4-5 students) has its own bathroom. I guess our college just has it better than yours.</p>

Not that I actually do that.</p>
<p>i am waiting to timecruncher to come back to defend themselves</p>
<p>I didn't see anything wrong with timecruncher's post.</p>
<p>before i leave my dorm room, just to be safe, i put on camoflauge and sneak down the wall so no one can see me. The dorm hallways are dangerous places, you can never be too careful.</p>
<p>once i tried to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night without taking any precautions, and BOOM
four 250 lb men from Al Qaeda raped me on the spot while drunken college kids cheered them on.</p>
<p>^^^me too, never made it to the bathroom :(</p>
<p>@ CAKI,
You're actually lucky. I had Osama try to plant some C4 up my a$$. Good thing I listened to TimeCruncher and carried my whistle with me to the bathroom.</p>
<p>ok, so i never actually read timecrunchers whole post.. lol</p>
