Synchronised Slashing

epgc3fyqirnbsx

Has anyone ever encountered this?

You spend an evening in a pub, you have a couple of pints and head for a slash. Whilst in there there is another gentleman which you don't acknowledge as you are a gentleman and slashing is quite a serious business.

You rejoin you're group for more beverages and the time comes for the jacks again. Lo and behold the same gentleman is availing of the facilities.

As the night progresses you see a pattern begin to emerge and realise that your toilet/drinking habits must be quite similar, or at least your bladders are.
As you get drunker you begin to wonder what the protocol is, are you meant to acknowledge how feckin hilarious the whole thing is or do you just offer the male greeting of the barely perceptable nod and look at your lad with a serious expression knowing full well the serious business that it is.

Tbh I could do without meeting the same people when I go to the jacks, it's feckin creepy

It's only creepy if you're looking down and over. Were you?

Have never been aware of such non-serendipitous synchronicity myself.

But I reckon you're just not getting drunk enough, quick enough...

Perhaps its fate telling you something?

Had a quick compare and contrast. When it really got creepy was when I had to ask him to get his shoulder in under mine

On a night out - no, don't really care. However when in work I find it weird.

That's cute. Maybe your periods will synchronise next.

STRANGER DANGER!

So, I was out drinking with my mates. And everytime I started for the jacks this guy would look up and leave his group and go too. I didn't notice it until the third or fourth time, was very unsettling.




But yeah, very weird the way that happens. I just go "howya" do my business and leave.

blackbird98

did he always arrive a couple of seconds after you each time or was it random??

if it was random, it wouldn't bother me, if it was synchronised, I'd recommend that you wear galvanised underpants the next time.......just in case!!!

He mightn't have left the jacks at all.He could have been pissing the whole night.

I thought the name SlasherMcGurk meant like a "slasher" who kills people with a knife, I didn't think it was a urination fascination

not looking at you in the same way again

Thought this thread was going to be about emos cutting themselves

Tender Hoop

perfectly normal, However people might start asking questions if you find yourself in a cubicle with him snorting a line of coke off his cock.

The worst is when, on the third of fourth 'meeting', you attempt to break the ice by cheerfully acknowledging the absurdity of the situation with your 'slash buddy' and he looks at you weirdly before leaving the jacks quickly.

And the next time you go up to the bar, you realize that he's sat at a table of nutters who are now all looking at you weirdly as well.

So long as the stranger doesn't offer to shake hands.

Son Of A Vidic

Well OP no matter how many times you meet in the jacks, no attempt must be made at communication - especially the visual kind. The ONLY exception to this is when, if you meet again at the hand basin, you may give a brief glance followed by a manly grunt. Then promptly exit the jacks with a manly walk.

Wolfe Tone

OP, just slash on him and this problem will end.... although it may result in an even more uncomfortable situation if he likes it!
