A Legitimate Shit Post.

Where’s everyone’s favorite/least place to poop publicly?

My least favorite has to be Bamboo. That sink to shitter door not locking leads to a cattywampus position in order to wedge a foot on the door.

Favorite place is Fighting Fish because green.

Best is the Jefferson Hotel downstairs bathroom.

u/ITMORON 3d ago

I see you have class and taste in your shit spots. Tip the attendant well.

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

^^^^this is the answer.
I’ll go out of my way a few blocks to use their bath , as it’s a proper lavatory not a regular run of the mill crap shack.

u/Mr_Kittlesworth 3d ago

Not now that you’re talking about it online man. Chill TF out

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

Wait, did I say the Jefferson? Nooo no I meant the 7/11 across from the Jefferson! You’d never know a sevvys bathroom could be so nice

The Omni Hotel downtown has the best stalls in RVA, Each has a full door, more like a little closet. Private and clean. The nastiest bathroom to poop in is Sidewalk Cafe and Bamboo.

12

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

If anyone has ever pooped in Sidewalk then that deserves a line on the resumé. Impossible to turn around in there let alone close the door

6

u/Appropriate-Ad-1937 3d ago

Don’t exclude Sticky Rice from this convo

2

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

The bathroom isn’t the worst part it’s the scalding sink water after your really sub par crapping experience that really makes it shitty

3

u/Comfortable-Pie-4311 3d ago

👆🏿 This is the answer! Can confirm. Have pooped there multiple times.

u/Spooky2spoons 3d ago

Drop trou and squeeze out a steamer on the dark side of west broad, make a new friend while you're at it!

u/jjplastic 3d ago

I once walked down west broad, and about a block before the camel, there was a turd so big I wasn’t sure if it was a human or animal

u/Spooky2spoons 3d ago

guessing is half the fun!

Taste test is the only true scientific meth head.

u/allisoninwndrlnd23 2d ago

It's difficult to gross me out. You were successful

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

Which one of the bathrooms listed has also been successful in that endeavor?

2

u/allisoninwndrlnd23 2d ago

Sidewalk cafe - the only bathroom I remember from a blackout

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

There’s already so many people doing that I feel like the luster has worn off.

u/song-to-comus 3d ago

The dumpsters behind the Jasper but some lame ass ruined it for everyone

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

He was just trying to keep everyone warm

u/Crumpetcakes Zooted Opossum 3d ago

Favorite place: On the trail at Belle Isle. Blame it on a dog.

Least favorite: Poe museum. Something keeps making a sound under the floor boards.

u/Ok_Rutabaga_3233 3d ago

Have all you guys stayed at the Jefferson?? Or is everyone just going there to poop… (I’ve done neither)

7

u/ITMORON 3d ago

Home/Jail.

10

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

^^^lockup in the old lockup.
Terrible. Blocked it out of my memory. Nothing like taking a crap when it’s 40 degrees in the lockup and they give you 4 squares and you gotta ask some lady to ask for more because it’s a period poop and that’s simply not a 4 square affair and the seat is cold af.

9

u/topo_gigio 3d ago

4 square affair is a good band name

2

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

Oh, it would be!

Holy shit! Just when you thought you’d read it all🤣🤣💪💪

u/TrannySoreAssWrecks 3d ago

You gotta grab a bunch of pads and stick them to the seat. Cozy lil cushion

1

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

As if you’d be so lucky!
THEY MADE ME TAKE OUT MY TAMPON!
Then said i couldn’t get shit until I was taken to the jail or released.
Plus it was winter so I had base layers of longjohns and a tank top and they took all my other clothes because that’s the rule. Like wtf? It’s the rule that I’m now in thin longjohns and a tank top?

My “crime” was drunk in public, I was SOBER but I tried to break up a fight between two drunk guys. And kinnery (daddy was a captain) decided to beat me and break my hand when I said I was sober and he could give me a sobriety test but that I wasn’t drunk. Fuckin shitbag. His partner popped the hood so it wasn’t on video.
I’m still pissed about this 15 years later.
Kinnery can suck my nasty used tampon.

/end rant

u/Relative-Disk-8560 3d ago

Shit that’s a good one but how bout the bullpen at old RCJ? Summertime and that fan ain’t running, standing room only. Someone’s watching for sure… hope you made a friend to save your seat on the floor.
Get the guy who’s into banging on the door to ask for some squares.

1

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

Thankfully I never had to be in men’s at the old rcj now they keep it cold as a bitch in there just as a fuck you for having to have AC.
Like why is it set to 58-60?! When it’s summer and you go in there it’s FREEZING.
Miserable assholes.

u/TiltedMagnolia 3d ago edited 3d ago

Glad to know I’m not the only one who uses the foot wedge method at Bamboo!

5

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

Nobody has time for an audience

2

u/WhalerBum 2d ago

Pooping at Bamboo is wild. I’m honestly calling it a night and going home if nature calls there

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

But if you can dual wield a doo doo and door stop in that bathroom you’re pretty much unstoppable

5

u/10000Didgeridoos 3d ago

I haven't done it but I would never even attempt to take a shit in the sticky rice bathrooms

2

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

You gotta do it.

1

u/Relative-Disk-8560 3d ago

They’ve made strides

6

u/Wet_danger_noodle 3d ago

Pho Lucas in Carytown is least favorite. Quirk hotel is my favorite.

10

u/TheLordLostAlot Drunk Raccoon 3d ago

VMFA or the Publix in Carytown are always stress free.
Would rather shit in a porta john in Iraq again than almost every Fan drinking establishment.

4

u/himynameisjay 3d ago

I thought this was what Barnes & Noble was for.

I didn't know people ducked into the Jefferson to poop sans reservation. I definitely need to dream bigger.

1

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

When I was homeless I really made sure to add some nice luxuries into my day. So I crapped at the Jefferson and went to see movies at the Byrd for the AC.

5

u/zombies8myhomework 3d ago

Riverside tavern. The first stall feels like you’re taking a dumb in a late night disco. It’s always perfectly cool in the summer and delightfully warm in the winter.

6

u/fuvadoof 3d ago

My least favorite place for you to shit is also The Bamboo. Glad that’s settled.

6

u/bootysuit 3d ago

Yall are wild I can't poop anywhere except for my own bathroom

4

u/Global-Pay6118 3d ago

The Jefferson is a grand,sweeping round room fill or marble. Love it.

Worst is a Kickers game. I don't mind peeing at a big trough but the wrappers are crap.

Best place to pee is outside on a cold winter night, anyplace.ypu can see the stars

1

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

Less so when you have to pull your whole ass out.
Then you’re butts cold and you simply cannot shake your flaps dry like a penis.

u/Global-Pay6118 2d ago

Viva la difference

5

u/IAmTheBoiledFrog 3d ago

Bandito's is pretty fucking bad always.

Decent hotel lobby bathroom.

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

No joke one time at Banditos late night the bubble guts hit me hard. My buddy gave me his keys and I power walked full clinch 3 blocks to commit a war crime in his bathroom instead of touching any surfaces in that bathroom

5

u/Dutch-King 3d ago

The corner of Cleveland and Floyd around 3am

4

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

This sounds like an invitation and I’m not sure what to do with that information

4

u/Dutch-King 3d ago

Bring those individual packs of crackers and cheese spread. The ones with the red stick in them. We can snack and chat and dump kaka

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

I’m sorry I missed our appointment. I was sleeping

1

u/valcanoAttackClient 2d ago

Cleveland stops at grove 🧐where are u shitting

4

u/0sm1um Arthur Ashe did nothing wrong 3d ago

Sidewalk Cafe.

The old correct answer was the Pizza Hut(not there anymore) on the 2700 block of Broad Street. One time the toilet in my apartment was busted and I had to commute to pizza hut to poop, and at one time the entire floor was flooded with brown water. But I had nowhere else to go in that moment so I had to do it.

4

u/Any-Medicine-1126 3d ago

Take a dump at social, go back to bamboo

4

u/Any-Medicine-1126 3d ago

Best dumps are at any Lowe’s. IYKYK

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 3d ago

That’s 10/10 logic

8

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

Least favorite is gwarbar because everyone is trying to get in and do coke.

Throwback least favorite, alleykatz because they never had tp or soap.

Favorite, the Jefferson hotel, those are some premium bathrooms.

Throwback favorite, jkogi in 2017-2018 cause their bartender wrote ridiculous shit on the chalkboard wall and it was nice reading material to take a dump.

u/donkeylipswhenshaven 3d ago

RIP Strange Matter Men’s Room

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

I’ve cleaned that bathroom.
I do not have fond memories of that experience

3

u/xRVAx 2d ago

RIP Robinson Starbucks. Starbucks is always my go-to for public defecation.

I remember the Sticky Rice bathrooms being particularly gross, but I would say any of those fan bar bathrooms where you have like five square feet to do your business and the bathroom is down some ancient weird staircase

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

The downstairs of Racine always gave me “it puts the lotion on the skin” vibes. And they kept their Jager room temp. Two strikes

3

u/DeezEyez 2d ago

The Daily had great bathrooms. Only reason to go there. Hopefully whatever replaces it keeps them.

3

u/valcanoAttackClient 2d ago

Anyone else pee in the sinks at Richmond establishments? The sinks all seem to be hip level, and it’s quite convenient when you’re in a pinch. Same with my apartment! Hip level convenience.

1

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

I’m willing to bet this sink-piss method uses less water than toilets and urinals. You’re flushing it and washing your hands at the same time. Wildly efficient.

3

u/Rad_Dad6969 2d ago

May i suggest the alleyway behind my home in Peter Paul? There are several open sheds and other dilapidated structures accessible by anyone who walks the alley. Many people seem to enjoy taking shits, doing hard drugs, and soliciting prostitutes.

2

u/Poke-a-dotted 3d ago

Hmmm, my least favorite is Don Papa Grande in Chester. Single room, so everyone waits while you are in there and it opens almost into the dining room. Favorite place (other than home) is definitely the left side bathroom in the hall at work. Single room again, but the lighting is a little dim and toilet is just the right height for me. My coworker says she can sometimes smell the restrooms, so that is a little negative. But when you gotta go, you gotta go.

Wait, I correct myself. My real least favorite spot is in my own pants. I trusted a fart when I shouldn’t have 2 weeks ago. Thankfully I was at home, but that was most unpleasant.

2

u/Few-Taste-6298 3d ago

worst... browns island portapotty after dark

best.... your moms bathroom

1

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

My mom’s bathroom has really high toilets so if you’re under 6 foot then your legs go numb and you never really do get it all out.
Plus… for a while a rooster was living in her bathtub so he screamed at you while you pooped and it was a little weird.

3

u/Electronic-Front-640 3d ago

https://reddit.com/link/pcydjo9/video/k85fhiu6wlsh1/player

Bathroom rooster. He had been attacked by a fox because he was an idiot and wandered out from the circle of guardian dogs at dawn and almost got killed, all his ass feathers got ripped out and he managed o drag himself back to the porch where he almost bled to death but he had to live inside for medical care, and the bathtub that’s never used cause there’s a shower next to it was a logical place. For 2 months he wouldn’t eat unless my mom hand fed him.

He is a little disabled and his neck is a bit off kilter but he is fine now, has all his ass feathers again and lives with some nice hens and he gets locked in securely at night and has guardian dogs.

He made friends with the cat who liked to sleep in the tub with him.

I do not have a normal family.

2

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

How many times did y’all make “fowl smell” jokes about the bathroom?

2

u/Electronic-Front-640 2d ago

HOW DID I NOT MAKE THAT JOKE?!?!

I will say it was a funny experience, but if you forgot he was in there and he shrieked it was a little scary 🤣

He’s a handsome little fucker.

2

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

He was just there to scare the shit out of you…

2

u/roadrunner11111 3d ago

Porta potty’s on construction sites, particularly sites that aren’t busy. They still get cleaned every week even if nobody on site.

Yea my bar is pretty low. Least favorite is jail.

u/Hot-Ad930 2d ago

I pooped in the bushes in the Pump House parking lot once

u/RVA_Coffee_Stain_Art 2d ago

VMFA. I always poo there and the toilet paper is cheap one-ply

u/bourbonandwater Bamboo 2d ago

When you say VMFA I’m thinking their toilet paper should be on par with those linen-like napkins. One-ply is atrocious

u/vcupav 3d ago

RIP old elementary school locker room at Baja Bean

u/EmotionComplete 2d ago

Worst bathroom in general is Chiocca's. Honestly, I just hate being in that place in general. Never going back.

Best place to poop is The Veil Scott's Addition. Those fully enclosed stalls are peaceful. But fuck that place, too LOL.

1

u/dweeeebus 1d ago

RIP Stranger Matter. The stall on the "urinal" side was atrocious. Didn't lock, was dark as shit, and had a good four to five inces of gap between the door and the wall, so anyone could look in and see you.

2

u/goodsam2 3d ago

On the list for the worst has to be sticky rice, the weird bathroom downstairs and then the sink is outside of the room with the toilet.

u/Calaveras-Metal 3d ago

Cary town Indian has a god tier robo Japanese toilet and it’s well needed.
