    Omg. This might be a little tmi but it makes a good story. This is what happens when you teach your kid good manners.

    All via text.
    Her: These dumplings are so good
    Me: That’s good
    A little while later
    Her: HELP I HAD A POO AND IT LEFT SKID MARKS. WHAT DO I DO?
    Me: Wipe off as much as you can with toilet paper
    Her: IT’S INSIDE THE WATER
    Then I get sent a picture of a toilet complete with offending marks.
    Me: Where are you?
    Her: At the dumpling place
    Me: Leave it. Run. Don’t forget to wash your hands
    Her: OK
    Me: ok

    She wouldn’t mind me tell yous this because she has a great sense of humour.

      Most restaurant toilets I’ve been to have a toilet brush but when they don’t it is indeed cover-your-face-with-hoodie mortifying. Godspeed to your daughter’s reputation.

        I know for a fact if there was a brush she would’ve used it. When the picture was loading I thought “dear God I do not need to see soiled underwear” I was ready to tell her to “abandon them”.

        Tbh if they don’t they’re kinda bringing it onto themselves. Like how southern cross doesn’t have bins. Obviously if it’s at a maccas, it’s probably going to get nicked, but at a dumpling joint it’d probably last for a while

      Dumping bleach in and letting it sit tends to remove all evidence with no scrubbing, but who would carry that? It’s impractical and dangerous. Even those hardcore white wearers who bring it for stain removal have it in the form of bleach pens.

      (It’s also terrible for the environment. Oops.)

      No foul. That’s on the restaurant for not supplying toilet cleaner or a toilet brush.

      Edit: Ps. Just so you know bleach also creates dangerous gas when mixed with urine so leaving it in the toilet bowl could be dangerous if the next person lets the yellow mellow or little kids use it in the night. And don’t clean litterboxes with it

      As I was reading the transcript I wasn’t sure what I was walking into and where it was heading.
