So a few years ago I put tootsie rolls on little plates in the bathrooms at work. It took about a week before people started taking the tootsie rolls. I coined this experiment as the "bathroom candy" experiment.

Since it is April 1st I have revived this experiment, but this time I put Hersheys kisses on little plates. It will be an interesting experiment. But I am hoping for the phrase: "Who keeps leaving chocolates in the bathroom?!" or "Why are there Hersheys kisses in the bathroom?"

I expect people to be very wary of the "bathroom candy" this year. lol

    Also, I just planted the rumor that the CTO wants to rewrite some our software in Rust. Citing security issues we had talked about in the meeting we had yesterday.

    You made me realize that in most bathrooms you can’t actually take a bath.

    @Lensflare you can still wash your dick in the sink. A little uncomfortable in a multi-stall restroom.

    @Demolishun I wouldn’t call washing your dick in the sink bathing. Do you think that whoever invented the term bathroom had this use case in mind?

    we started calling it bathroom because calling it the waste room is too uncivilized

    so we literally mangled the meaning due to discomfort of being associated with our bodily fluids

    it's how sustainability means murder. well you can't say that, you must be civilized and confuse everyone how you don't mean what they think you mean when you're saying it!

    My immediate manager saw through the Rust thing right. Suggested we use assembler and cobol too.

    Nobody has been brave enough to take a shitter hersheys kiss yet.

    @Lensflare In British English it generally isn't called a bathroom unless it contains a bath (or at a pinch, a shower) for that reason

    Given how many types of urine are meant to be present on bowls of nuts in public places due to people not washing their hands I would be revolted by the prospect of eating chocolate that had been in a toilet.

    @jestdotty British English has fewer qualms about using more, shall we say, descriptive language for the toilet.

    Phrases like loo, bog and khazi are in common usage. There's definitely some truth to the line in Blackadder where the Red Baron describes the toilet as "the basis of an entire culture".

    @matthewbdaly or restroom… which is the room that you use for resting.

    @Lensflare Yep, that seems particularly weird from here.

    Using the term "bathroom" also carries a degree of risk here because it's not unknown for some older houses to have a room which contains a bath, and maybe a sink, but no toilet.

    in Ukraine the toilet was its own room, and the sink and bath were their own room

    also... public restrooms... you shat in a hole in the ground -- like literally you had to squat on the floor. and the "sinks" was just a massive trough with a hose in it

    @chatgpt is putting candy in the bathroom an osha violation?

    @Demolishun
    Yes, putting candy in the bathroom can be considered an OSHA violation as it could potentially attract pests such as insects or rodents, leading to unsanitary conditions in the workplace. It is important to maintain a clean and hygienic environment to ensure the health and safety of employees.

    @chatgpt what if the candy in the bathroom is for an after poop snack? What code does it violate?

    @Demolishun
    Eating candy in the bathroom, especially as an "after poop snack," is not recommended for sanitation reasons. It violates common hygiene standards and bathroom etiquette. This behavior could promote the spread of germs and bacteria, potentially leading to health issues. It is advisable to keep food items out of the bathroom to maintain cleanliness and reduce health risks.

    @chatgpt what code does putting candy in the bathroom at work violate?
  • 0

    @Demolishun
    Putting candy in the bathroom at work could potentially violate health and safety codes, as food items should not be stored or consumed in areas where there is a higher risk of contamination. It could also violate workplace policies related to food safety and cleanliness. Additionally, it may not be in compliance with company policies on maintaining a professional and sanitary work environment.

    Interesting. The chatgpt I use at work gave me the actual code violation. I guess my fun and games are over.
