Shaz 4 Kevin ?
Nov. 30th, 2002 02:22 amToday I popped into the toilets on the platform 2 side of the station in Oxford. On the cubicle door it said:
CHEMICALS DON'T EQUAL CLEAN
YOUR DETERGENTS ARE TOXIC AND MAKE ME WANT TO HEAVE
FAKE AROMAS ≠ BLOSSOM
Now, admittedly, the fake flowery smell is a bit overpowering, but it wouldn't have occurred to me to feel particuclarly strongly about it. I certainly wouldn't have thought to whip out a biro and scrawl my feelings across the door.
Does this strike anyone else as odd ?

Date: 2002-11-30 07:40 am (UTC)I thought to myself while writing, 'wait, she might be offended if I assume the prankster is female,' my urge towards politeness temporarily overcoming the fact that there was every reason to make that assumption.
