i think the joke is that it sounds like "we're sucking dick" to people who don't know german

oh gods but that’s such a fucking stretch like 1. someone who doesn’t know German has to hear it and 2. someone who doesn’t know German has to say it. You’d have to be the most ignorant native English speaker to pronounce it that way, because not even by a stretch does that sound even just similar if the person saying it tries even... a little bit... to pronounce words the way they are supposed to be pronounced...

germans when you call it a “toilet” instead of “the poopenfarten”

Me, when I’ve accepted it’s about to be a rough shift…

@ground-zer0s you know you can’t just leave those tags hinting at stories and not have me asking

This is about the poop rooms huh?

Ok so. I work at a really cheap motel in the literal WORST area of town. Across the street from the cheap motel that is the meeting point for all the worst people. I have a LOT of interesting stories but this will be about the dreaded “poop rooms”.

It began about a month or two after I was hired. One of our smoking rooms wouldn’t check out, and we had to forcibly evict the guy. Turns out he had shit on EVERYTHING. The bed, the counters, the sink, the floor, the bathtub, smeared it on the mirror and the walls, but the toilet was untouched. We dubbed it the poop room.

MANY months later, we had another incident similar. Not as bad, but it was poop room 2. After my one year anniversary hit, we got another that was as bad as the first. It was a 2 bed room so there was shit on both beds. Used diapers shoved under both beds while open.

But poop room #4? It made our maintenance man cry. He’s been here 21 years and it made him cry. The mattress was somehow SATURATED with human shit. There was liquid shits everywhere. How someone had so much shit stored in their body is an enigma to me. The stench was enough to choke anyone who went near the room and it took us about 10 days to get the room back up to rentable status.

So it’s an odd thing that just happens here I guess, maybe this building built back in the 60s is cursed, maybe it’s haunted (probably. I work night audit, shit happens in the office at night.) But for whatever reason people seem to come here to shit their guts out.

I’m not even certain what a good response to this is. I can only make sounds.

I want to believe it’s the same person, but knowing humanity, it being multiple would make sense, and that’s the worst. Boy did you deliver.

Trust me, it’s been different people, and only one of them was elderly. But hey, poop room #1 culprit was actually arrested last night. For unrelated things obviously. Just a fun fact I learned since writing this.

Also expect more fun stories because HOOH I have a lot.

Okay but that’s amazing. At least some form of karma bit them. Maybe he shat on someone rich or something.

I’ll be here waiting on those stories!
