Philosophy in a Bathroom

March 07, 2009 19:51 +0000 | Travel 5

Sharpied in green onto the paper-dispenser in a YVR bathroom:

"Why can't the world learn to get along?"

A response, scrawled in black next to it:

"Too many people"

"Here I sit all broken-hearted,
Tried to shit, and then realized I was akin to Nietzsche in the sense that my entire personal philosophy was appropriated by the Nazis and cynically manipulated to suit their own diabolical ends.
Then I farted."

At Sneaky Dee's before the bathroom reno I remember reading someone's response to all the "I LOVE SEX" and silly poop jokes everywhere .. they wrote something like "Why can't you people discuss something REAL?" Someone wrote underneath that "But don't you see that nothing is real?"

That is probably the deepest thing I've read so far on a bathroom stall wall.

Is it wrong that whenever I think of Sneeky Dees, I immediately jump either to Emily-Jane or Scott Pilgrim?

I am not sure what exactly would make that "wrong", but as I don't read Scott Pilgrim and associate Emily-Jane more with sushi, when I think of Sneaky Dee's I think of epic nachos, hipsters, and so-dirty-you'll-just-wait-'til-you-get-home bathrooms.
