Today 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 ?

I think condign punishment for the person who scrawled that, if he ever gets before a magistrate

He ?

...as political correctness gets overcome by logic. Yeah, good point.

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.
