Particularly the bathrooms. When I'm able to get in one (they're locked most of the time )

so, the floor is brilliantly decorated with toilet paper, the toilets are crappy, the soap dispensers hardly work and I'm licky if 2 faucets work on the sink.

The bathroom has 4 walls, yet at the top of one, there's some of those blocks that are wavy and you can't see through them. actually, about 2 of those blocks, because most of them are gone.

Then there's the graffiti, some of them are some brilliantly written poems:
I sometimes come here to think and sit...
But mostly just to stink and s**t

Even wall-ed rooms annoy me too! :-p
 
Dude, the restrooms at my high school didn't even have doors on the stalls. They passed a frickin' $3 billion county bond measure to rebuild all of the schools and started renovating the year after I graduated. Well, at least my little sister now goes to a pretty nice school.
 
Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
