Wrong John Or Not?

I have always feared going into the wrong bathroom. It has never happened but I keep wondering when it will. Here is the latest episode.


 

 
I entered a restroom the other day.
No one screamed and I heard no one say
“You’re in the wrong place, you’re not a girl!”
So I didn’t have to turn and whirl.
 
I noticed as I looked everywhere
there was no white urinal hanging there.
There was a green door to one lone stall.
Didn’t know if I should laugh or bawl.
 
I stumbled back and opened the door
to check the sign before doing more.
Printed on the sign was the word “Men”
so I confidently went in again.
 
I did my “duty” and washed and dried
and walked out with a face full of pride.
Once more I’d avoided a great fear
although it seemed I’d come very near.
 
Somebody smiled at me as they quipped
that I should know my pants were unzipped.
I made the adjustment just as I should
and ran out the door as quick as I could.

Ho, Ho, Ho! I have wandered into the wrong public restroom, and now, I avoid them like the plague - the woods are much nicer!

Oh Larry, what we can do with you? Your male brothers kind of "accidentally" come through that "wrong" door (if you know what I mean) LOL

Larry, the sign with the lady in a dress is the wrong room, you only go into the one with the picture of a guy in pants, though I am willing to bet I know who wears the pants in your family, that is probably why you are having problems like this...LOL, Ed

Only in America do we worry about whether we are in the right place. I do get the humor, though.

Cheers,

Very cute, it is most embarassing when I walk in a room, while that white comode on the wall is in use. Do you turn and walk away, if you say sorry, it may leave him wondering, why you apoligized ;*)

Larry,

Thanks for the laugh!
