from the department of poorly made decisions that oddly serve to illustrate a point

[rm]

The gender identification letters on the doors of the bathrooms at the new office suite we rent in are magnets. So you can move them around. Or switch them. Or remove them. Or bring obscene magnetic poetry into the workplace under cover of night.

Right now we have "om w en".

This is not for the win, kids.

at a mnstf pool party once, someone labelled the bathrooms "carbon" and "silicon". it was fun to see people turn around and head to the other bathroom.

i suppose it's better than "we nom".

D'oh!

Agreed, for the fail.

Though the magnetic poetry has possibilities.

During our "Men in Skirts" exhibition someone affixed a skirt to the figure on the men's bathroom door. It was there for two years before it finally fell off.

The bathroom designations mean nothing in our department, people just use whichever one is open since the office is 90% female.

Oh! Oh!! Are you kidding? This is so **totally** for the win!

Can I come over and play with the bathroom doors?

Wait til someone goes in... switch after they're in there.

Fun, maybe. But... ugh.

In my middle school the words had worn off the bathroom doors and someone had written "Humans" and "Androids".

The queer office at UVic had a sign set with the classic icons labled "People Wearing Umbrellas" and "People with Wedgies".

You need OMEN and MEWN.

Everyone loves doom and Welsh prepositions.
