Which cubicle do you pick?

33 replies

Bog standard ladies loo (no pun intended) in your local. 3 cubicles - which do you pick?

I always pick the furthest away, and now I’m wondering does everyone else have one they would always go to by default? Is it always the 3rd one? Have I been using the most used loo all this time??

5 wines in at Christmas have inspired this question Wine

I go for the first one because I’ve seen that people don’t often choose that one.

ChardonnaysBeastlyCat · 23/12/2024 17:12

The clean one.

EmpressaurusKitty · 23/12/2024 17:13

The one with a clean loo, toilet paper & a working lock.

Trollsandsqueakforbreakfast · 23/12/2024 17:13

Whichever one comes free first, because they're always full.

TouchoftheTism · 23/12/2024 17:13

What does it matter, it's not as if you're looking at each others cocks.

Enko · 23/12/2024 17:14

First one

Sprig1 · 23/12/2024 17:15

The first. It's been proven that fewer people choose that one, therefore it should be the cleanest.

Mooi · 23/12/2024 17:15

The furthest away one and if that’s dirty I’d move down to the middle one

MsMajeika · 23/12/2024 17:16

Furthest.

JC03745 · 23/12/2024 17:16

A choice of 3, whichever is free first. Otherwise either the 1st or 3rd one- I don't NEED to go in a certain one.

ByHeartyCyanMentor · 23/12/2024 17:17

If I have a choice the cleanest with toilet paper.
Otherwise which ever comes free first and tissues in my bag always for emergency wiping.

Same, I heard that years ago and it's always stuck with me. Most people use the middle one apparently.

StarlightLady · 23/12/2024 17:31

I always pick the nearest one on the basis that most people think the nearest is used most, so it is in reality used less. This is not scientific though and concede l may have it wrong.

AsWithGlad · 23/12/2024 17:33

I usually use the second from the far end, so in this case it would be the middle one.

I may have to try using the first one - but the idea gives me the heebie jeebies Grin

those of you who don’t have a need to use a certain loo, are clearly serial killers Confused

99% of people choose the furthest available cubicle from the door. I choose the closest to the door because I know this and so know that my cubicle is more likely to have loo roll and be cleaner.

Wolfpa · 23/12/2024 17:49

I always use the closest one as it is proven to be cleaner than the others.

PaddingtonsDeathStare · 23/12/2024 18:15

I also would head for the one furthest from the door (cleanliness/loo roll/working lock etc all being equal) but after reading this I think I may change my strategy and take the one closest to the door instead!

StarlightLady · 23/12/2024 18:31

OP, (lighthearted), if l can’t get in the one nearest the door because it’s occupied in future, I’ll blame you for this thread 🤣.

caramac04 · 23/12/2024 18:32

I thought the middle was least used because there is the potential for two people to spy over the top at you. Who would actually do that is unclear to me.

It’s not the spying over the top but the top but the risk of emitting stereo sound effects 😀.

JohnTheRevelator · 23/12/2024 23:52

The cleanest looking one.

XenoBitch · 23/12/2024 23:55

Whatever one hasn't got a turd or wads of tissue still in the pan. Or the one that actually has loo roll.

Bewareofthisonetoo · 23/12/2024 23:59

Wow /have never thought of this - just random 😂

Daijoubudesu · 24/12/2024 00:07

The first one. Most people walk straight past it.
