Turn it up!

I had this thought a few weeks ago. If I were Emperor of the Universe, all public bathrooms would have music playing at a reasonable to loud volume. Music would do an excellent job of drowning out noises that I really don't want to hear, discourage people from talking on their cell phones in the bathroom (gross, these people suck), and prevent obnoxious co-workers from making chitchat with me when all I really want to do is get in and get out. Seriously people, in the bathroom, leave me the hell alone! There are actually tons of other improvements that public bathrooms can use, but that is for another time. For now, music in the bathroom, thoughts?

  1. Hear, hear! So far I am on the campaign for Darren for Emperor of the Universe.

    I hate urinal conversations. It's not the time or place...

  2. Agreed, I hate talking in the bathroom. People who try to need to watch Dave Barry's urinal strategy for some help.

  3. I will admit I have been guilty of privy conversation, but do feel a little bit odd in the act. I'm gregarious and can't shut up. Emperor of the Universe drown me out.

  4. Yes. Any conversation in the bathroom is disgusting -- I don't care who you are or what it's about. Just wait until you've washed your hands and left.

    Hearing people go to the bathroom is one of my least favorite things in life. I sort of wish that bathroom off our living room wasn't there.

  5. In the workplace, this is NEVER appropriate. When with friends in a public bathroom, it could possibly be hilarious. But I am all for the universal drown-out. But I'm gonna need some more convincing before I get behind you as Emperor of the Universe. Convince me, oh, Potentially Great One!

  6. Agreed. On all accounts. Plus, I figure if you're a crappy emperor, we could always just stage a coup. Those are always fun.
