Things That Should Not Exist #2 Bathroom Stall Doors That Don’t Connect All The Way

Picture this: you're at work, in class,or out for the night just going about your day when suddenly, nature calls. You make a beeline for the nearest restroom, hoping for a quick and private escape. But as you enter the bathroom stall and close the what they call a door, you're faced with a confounding sight - the door has more gap space in it than Epsteins autopsy report, leaving a gap wide enough for any passerby to look in regardless if they're trying too or not, sadly enough most doors barely go down far enough to cover your shins. It's like a bad joke or a practical prank gone wrong, and you find yourself playing a guessing game of "who am I shitting next to" based on their shoes or pants. So, let's dive in and explore more about bathroom stall doors that lack proper connection.


First and foremost, let's talk about the notorious gap. It's as if the concept of privacy was lost in translation when these bathroom stall doors were designed. You find yourself in a precarious position where you can make eye contact with someone outside the stall, or even exchange pleasantries with them. It's like a bizarre meet-and-greet, except you c*ck and balls are just hanging out at the ready.


For me there's two reasons that Instantly came in my head for an explanation of just why stall doors were designed in this manor.


The first of which being Capitalism, there's nothing that has screwed the American people over more in the long run than corporate greed. I could just see Big Bathroom sitting up in their offices thinking of a way to save on production costs and where better place to save than on one of the key functions of a stall door. That's right, privacy. Top to bottom bathroom doors are very common in other developed countries for privacy and just overall humanitarian reasons(I want to shit and watch TikTok's in peace).


The second reason I came up with which is much more rational of the two could be that having these elevated doors make it much easier for the cleaning staffs to maintain a clean and sanitary environment. Let's be honest these folks deal with enough of our drunken antics from puke, to broken sinks, to only god can imagine what else. The last thing they need to deal with is Becky having a panic attack in an enclosed stall because she decided to have 5 espresso martinis and is now repainting the bathroom of that new cute trendy bar uptown.


Let's not forget about the unintentional eavesdropping. With a door that leaves a gap wide enough for sound to escape, you suddenly find yourself privy to the most intimate details of your stall neighbor's bodily functions. You hear their grunts, groans, and even their attempts at stifling a fart or a laugh. It's like an impromptu live podcast on bodily functions, and you can't help but wonder if you should offer them some encouragement or applause. Not saying fully enclosed doors would help but I'd appreciate it if I couldn't fist bump my neighbor after pushing one out.


There you have it my 2 cents on bathrooms doors and why at least in America we should take a look at ourself and really turn back to the drawing board with what we have now.
