    1.) Don't talk to me. Don't ask me questions like how are my kids or about the ball game. 2.) Don't talk on your cell phone while you are pinching a loaf. That's just rude and crude and I don't want to hear about your late night escapades with Johnny. 3.) Wash your hands...no really. Even after you pee. 4.) Courtesy flushes. One per movement - this is mandatory and it's common sense. 5.) Don't brush your teeth where other people shit...unless you like brushing your teeth with colonic bacteria. 6.) Most important rule of all...If we are both at the urinals and I see your head move left or right out of my peripheral vision...then, unless you've got a guide dog, you are a dead man. Follow some of these basic, common sense, rules and you should have a happy constitution. [edits] made some edits at request of Pompey and POH. :)

      Last office I was in people did dishes in the bathroom. There's a fucking kitchen in the office people! Don't make me piss on your plates. Also, the mens bathroom had one urinal and two stalls. More than once if i was at the urinal and somebody else came in they would line up behind me and wait even if both stalls are empty. So, you just wanted to watch me piss eh? How did that go for you?

        You forgot one. 7) Don't eat food while you're in there. That's just nasty.

              1.) It is not a Bathroom, a bathroom is where you Bathe. ;P (Sorry, couldn't resist as I know how much you appreciate it when us Brits point out the faults in your Americanisms).

                Right you are sir. I should edit that so it says restroom instead. I really don't know why we use the word bathroom for anything other than bathing. Good catch. :)

                            Lavatory (I think) also means a place to wash. Although now used as a polite word for toilet.

                            Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                              1. The only conversation allowed is a simple "Thanks" or "Cheers" if someone holds the door open for you. 2) Pissing whilst one the phone is funny if the guy doing it then drops the phone into the urinal. 3) The Army taught me not to piss on my hands. 4) Courtesy flushes are for pussies. Real men mark their territory. 5) Brushing teeth in a public toilet is just freaky, wait till you get home/hotel room/brothel. 6) There is never ever any reason to use the urinal next to one being used. A gap of at least one urinal is required, minimum!

                                      Right you are sir. I should edit that so it says restroom instead. I really don't know why we use the word bathroom for anything other than bathing. Good catch. :)

                                      Because most of our bathrooms have baths in them, along with toilet and sink, and the name just got applied to any room in which any of the activities can take place?

                                        I love random questions that send me hurtling into Wikipedia[^] to look stuff up.
