It's probably the most tiring thing on this planet imo. Just let me be autistic at work!

Normally I'd agree (for my own sake) but considering how Tohru can be when he's allowed to be himself, maybe it's a good thing he's forced to act in a socially-acceptable way.

I think he was being himself, and relatively well-adjusted, previously at his workplace in this timeline. It's just now he's forced to do teambuilding poo poo with new people and is gonna be some kind of team lead.

Spending a lot of mental effort masking to appear socially normal and passable, I'm guessing.

I presume he also did a bit of instructing and introducing this and that to the new workers off-camera.

There is no way that "It's fine if they think I'm pooping, isn't it?" doesn't become the thread title.

I've heard it when I was a kid in NJ, so there's that. Kids will make fun of other kids for almost anything, I wouldn't be surprised if it is

We had the same thing in slovakia along with "do you need scissors?"

I wish some popular kid would normalize pooping my school. Also denormalize the weird pee over everything in the boys bathrooms sessions. The place was hazy with piss!

Incidentally, once my Japanese textbook in university taught us about how Japanese women would constantly flush the toilet while they're on it to drown out any noises, so they started adding sound devices to toilets that would play the sound of flushing or just music to save water. Funnily, after reading that article I started getting self-conscious myself. :doh:
Germany also had some talking toilet shenanigans as well, but for a different reason.

One time in my early 20's I worked a retail job for a bit. Orientation was at this separate little hr facility place they had. Pretty much right at the start of it I needed the bathroom bad. I had drank a fair bit the night before and had some fast food earlier in the day. there were sounds and they were loud. The bathroom was right off of the room we were meeting in. At the time I hoped it didn't project outside too much but later someone else used the bathroom and I realized from the sounds of them flushing the toilet and washing their hands just how clearly you could hear everything going on in that bathroom. and I was mortified

luckily I was the only one getting hired at my store at the time so I didn't have to work with anyone who had borne witness

On one hand I guarantee that there isn't a single person on Earth who cares about that moment the same way that you do and it's just a fun memory.

On the other hand, LOL good job making GBS threads, dumbo

There were flushing sound machines in the office bathroom where I worked in both Nagoya and Tokyo. I liked to press them even though I was the only person in there
