Something I wrote on my blog...exemplifies the "Sucky Customer"...

There used to be a small, independent coffee shop in town that kept markers in the bathroom so people could write and draw on the walls. There were some pretty cool drawings and quotes in there. Sad to say, I never got a pic of any of that. It was such a cool place, but it closed

One of the clubs around me sorted this: They painted all the bathroom walls in chalkboard paint and provided chalks.

Actually, that's a pretty cool idea!

I remember visiting the Empire State Building- they had signs up all over the freaking place saying "We welcome you, We welcome your visit. We do not welcome your graffiti."
I am not sure if they posted those signs in the bathroom or not, but I do know they searched people for paint, markers, and the like, right along with weapons and other nasty things.

To me, it's not really surprising that people do write on the walls, and what they write obviously isn't that surprising (sometimes it's shocking and racist), but it'd be weird to go into a bathroom and see some kind of math formula on the wall...that would throw off all of the other wall-writers...

You know...something like this...

You didn't go to my university, obviously. Write that on the wall, and it would have been followed by proofs within hours.

Arguments over physics problems on the stall doors were common...





(And I'm disappointed. Nobody's called me out for my hideously bad Latin graffiti joke... )

I'm talking about in places like retail establishments and restaurants.

Sheldon: "If by 'Holy Smokes' you mean something you can find scribbled on the wall at any men's room at MIT, sure."

Sheldon: "Oh, please. Who hasn't seen this derivative underneath 'Here I sit broken hearted'?"

Ok, yeah. I'll buy that.

The engineering department at my school has three types of graffiti. There's your typical poems and jokes, "here I sit" and the like. There's your standard penis drawings. And then there's someone who scribbled their notes on the wall before a test - guess that's what they mean by finding inspiration in the bathroom.

OMG. So now along with checking for notes written on the desks and walls in my classrooms, I have to check for notes in the restrooms, too?!? I never would have thought about somebody doing that!
