Man, my bathroom stalls only have references to prostitution (phone numbers included), gay sex, and ocasional references to hipster music and angry rants about ex girlfriends.

Enjoy your allahu ackbar before it becomes filled with dicks and Ines Brasil one-liners.
In the university where I study (which is where I took that) it's either the political right bashing the left or the left bashing the right (depends on whether you are in a building that has engineering or human sciences classes, respectively), random quotes by assorted philosophers, student council politics, game of thrones spoilers, and... allahu ackbar I guess.

There's a glorious graffito in a stall at my university that reads "I stole this marker from my criminal psychology tut". The rest are generally pretty average.

Stuff at the bottom says "hello islamic state!". No idea about the actual text.
The Arabic is probably something unrelated and innocuous. The bottom line is written with a different marker, so it was probably added there afterwards by a snarkmeister who saw Arabic, couldn't read it, and assumed a connection to terrorism. I can't read Arabic either, though, so it could just as well be a manifesto on how the Western world must be destroyed. Still, Occam's Razor.

Psh, you see that everywhere nowadays. Game of Thrones spoilers is one kind I've been tempted to do. I finished my post grad before the temptation got too hard. The stalls in that one building were disappointingly clean.

Does "tossed it" mean threw up?
"to toss one's cookies" isn't universal?

I have literally never heard that one before (but is not english).

The full idiom makes much less sense than how you used it :P

wait sorry this thought just caught up to me

do i really seem straight (as opposed to bi)? what does that even mean...

(not in the "wow what does that mean" sense but in the "wow i really want to explore the reasoning behind that statement because it's fascinating")

Interestingly, the bathrooms at my college are almost entirely free of graffiti. I had never really noticed the absence previously, but it does seem odd.

@Putnam
As someone who admired your posts for a while, I never got an impression either way.  Didn't really think about it, though.
I mean especially since I saw one of your group videos about TES lore and was impressed but also "nah too young for me".

Some people act really gay, and some people (me, maybe?) make a point about being bi out of insecurity.  I never got any such impression from you, which is kinda ideal.  In a perfect world it shouldn't be any sort of big deal or defining attribute, at least imho.

Putnam: I've got to say people's sexual orientation isn't really something I tend to think about when reading their posts. Unless it's specifically mentioned I can't actually tell what somebody's sexuality is, and in a lot of ways don't care unless it's relevant, from the way they act. I dunno, maybe other people can tell orientation etc. from the content of people's posts. To actually answer you, no you don't seem bi to casual observation, at least in my opinion, but nor do you seem straight.

In a perfect world it shouldn't be any sort of big deal or defining attribute, at least imho.

My opinions on sexuality and morality when it comes to relationships in general is thus: "if it can fit in a database, it's fine, and if it can't, it's probably still fine but i'll whine about it a little because how did you even do that"

This essay is my holy book.

I reread that and felt actually a little weirded out about how stodgy he was about Elizabeth and Daphne being married to each other and Daphne being married to Charles but not Charles to Elizabeth in the first paragraph of Fourteen.
