How long would it take for someone to be gone for a restroom break for you to suspect they are taking a number 2?

Haha, I was thinking about this today while a restaurant alone. My goal was to be as quick as possible to make it seem like I was doing a number 1. I don’t think I was successful.

I’d say more than five minutes and if they came back with goose bumps. LOL

I don’t give a shit, unlike them.

Any longer than 3 mins and I’d be asking if they fell down the loo?

I’m with @ucme, I really don’t care. Unless its a matter of I am being held up by said person and have to wait on them. Then I would assume after 5 minutes they must be taking a dunk. lol
But with females, it can be an easy 10 to 15 minutes. I know I easily waste that much time putting on face lotion and makeup and fixing my hair.

You can’t be sure, they might be number 3 in the queue for the hand dryer.

And restrooms are typically places to take care of other private needs, such as a diabetic might have.

I would never think in those terms.

If I take to long in the toilet I automatically think “Oh no, they’re going to think I’m having a poo!” even when I am not!!

I’d say 2 minutes for men and 5 for women.

When I start to worry about my kids. After a while of worrying, I try to check. Or when I start getting impatient. Other than worrying or getting impatient, why should I care?

Number 2…, is that masturbating?

Poser's avatar

If they take longer than about three minutes, I just assume they have a drug problem.

I never have to ask myself that, because up in the frozen wasteland that is Québec, most of us barbarians deem it natural to announce what number it is we’re off doing. Brb, gotta take a dump, chump!

Of course, we don’t do that in restaurants…who wants to think about poop when you’re eating, anyway?

If they come back and advise not going back into the restroom, I assume it was a number 2.

@rebbel Lol. Well just to answer for fun. When any of my guy friends come back from the restroom to the table I always roast them regardless. I love watching defensive awkward moments.
