Too many dudes are ignoring proper men’s room protocol these days. Especially in public places like restaurants, businesses, theaters, churches, airports, etc. I don’t know if it’s because they grew up without dad’s, brothers, or what? But somethings gotta change.

Here’s a small list of proper etiquette in the restroom. Please add to it in the comments section and strictly adhere to them.

Urinals

1. Never saddle up next to another dude unless absolutely necessary.
2. Always take the urinal farthest away from another guy.
3. If the option is to stand between two guys or take an empty stall. Take the stall.
4. Don’t talk.
5. Always look straight ahead.
6. Avoid eye contact.
7. If there’s a line, don’t stand behind someone using the urinal. Give them lots of space.
8. Aim (You’d be surprised. Well…maybe not).

Toilets

1. If it’s locked, don’t knock.
2. Don’t talk.
3. Don’t tap your foot.
4. Don’t reach into another stall.
5. Don’t whistle.
6. Don’t externalize a sigh of relief. Keep it inside like all good men.
7. DO courtesy flush.
8. Don’t call someone while doing your business.

And for the good of all mankind, wash your hands with soap. Especially in a public restroom.

To make this world a better place we need to make the men’s room a better place.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Your turn.

I was like a little boy last night watching the season premiere of ‘24‘ and it did not disappoint. Jack Bauer once again established himself as a dude’s dude. Any man who can kill a guy with only his mouth is the man. Let the testosterone flow.

I’m a firm believer that men need to be men with a set. I like Jack Bauer not only because he seems to save the country time and time again, but because he’s tough- not soft. I like that warrior mentality and someone who’ll sacrifice himself for the greater good and not cry about it. Kind of remind you of someone? It reminds me of Jesus.

When I saw the scars of Jack Bauer’s back last night I couldn’t help but think of Jesus. When Jack offered his life to save multitudes of others, it reminded me of Jesus. When Jack saw the good in a dude who used to be bad, I saw Jesus. There are so many parallels. This show’s a good reminder that Jesus was a warrior who certainly loved others but sometimes got ticked off!

So I say let the testosterone flow. I’m excited to see the twists and turns of ‘24′ this season. And the more I see Jesus in it- the better.
