Is it plastic, or wooden?

10. Please, don't kick my ass. I beg....<cowers in corner>.......
So it's one of those thin brown plastic jobbies then.....hmmmmm...

You you think it came from the cafeteria or the coffee kiosk? Or do you suspect that they come in from the outside?

We must get to the bottom of this!!!

15. People have been known pick their teeth, or ears,.....
Or clean their fingernails with these instruments.

Perhaps that's it. :shrug:

11. Altho..... you could
use them as a "spoon" for snorting either meth or coke. I vote meth, since it's the new Worker Efficieny drug.

7. Sounds like someone takes their open container of coffee
into the bathroom. Eeww. Hadn't they ever heard of airborne germs?
Or toilets that spit when flushed. blech.

19. Heheh. Bad experience today. Got in, but for some reason the tooth
wouldn't numb up...so I felt the whole thing. I am about ready to give up. :cry:

27. It's unfortunate, because I love my dentist. We went to high school
together and she has always been awesome. I was angry about the filling falling out twice, and I'm not really sure why my whole face, tongue, throat etc. got numb, but not that tooth.

Thanks for the well wishes tigereye! :hi:

8. freepers like to have a nice cup of coffee when they're....
...sitting on the potty. and you can't flush those babies so they just toss them on the floor for someone else to pick up.

17. Are you sure they aren't Ketosis test sticks?
Most of the people on Atkins use those.

22. This is what O.B. tampons have done to the world!
I have never, ever, EVER understood that "nah, I really don't need an applicator attached" thing. Yuck. My theory is that the coffee stirrer dropper was improvising....

23. Maybe someone doesn't want to touch the toilet to flush & uses it
to push down the flusher, and then tosses it on the floor.
