Bathroom lies in the eye of the beholder !
The above picture was taken from the entrance of a popular food court here in Chennai.
Well, it really didn’t make sense that way. So I swapped the positions of the signboard and voila :
We loo on the Wet Floor !!!! Now theres a meaning, isn’t it ?
Donno if some ‘genius’ erased those letters from the signboards or it got ‘brilliantly’ faded on its own. My fiancé, her brother and her cousin were with me at that time and none of them noticed the error.
and guess what, while I was taking the snap :
Fiance (with palm on her forehead) : God, what am I getting into ?
Her brother : Great. One more crazy person in the family !
Her cousin : I need those snaps through bluetooth !

Below is a sign found in the mens restroom in some of the leading corporate companies. The sign has no issues and its actually become a necessity in the restroom these days; there are a few idiots who still do not know how to use the toilets and the wash basin. But the moment I set my eyes on the highlighted part, I thought to myself if the author of the sign actually meant it or if it is some kind of ‘aimless’ dry joke !
Yeah, yeah, go on !! Again, I really dont know how these come only to my notice; perhaps, bathroom lies only in the eye of beholder !!
V-Lokam 
I liked the title to your post and the note you ended it all;” I really don’t know how these come only to my notice; perhaps, bathroom lies only in the eye of beholder !!”
I totally agree on that note 😀
Whether they are someone’s intelligence to make these signs get noticed for sure or a funny bit you noticed while the people who put the sign failed to note (on account of illiteracy or other serious issues) is highly debatable 😀
Have a fantastic time this holiday season 🙂
Cheers!!
At last, someone actually liked the title !! 😀 😀 😀
You are getting too technical with your doubts ! 😀 😀 😀
You have a great time too ! Enzooooiii !!
Wah wah Vimmmuuu! LOL! That was ur good deed for the day? You also impressed (scared) ur fiance…brilliant pa! 🙂
Yes Yes…more like tip of the day !! 😀 😀 😀
LOL, I did. I didnt have to try much to scare her though ! 😉 Thanks ma ! 😀
LOL!!! u and ur never ending bathroom tales!!! 🙄
and as ur fiance rightly realised (too late!), little does she know what she is getting into!!!!! 😀 😀 😀
hey!!! 😯
me third!!!!!!!!!!!
danganakka!! 😛 😛 😛
You all didnt know what you were getting into when you left your first comment , na ? 😀 😀 something similar ! 😉
adey adey… ellam late realisation aanallo 😉
lol !! aim properly ?? sounds like an instruction to someone with a gun !! he he !! really good one !
I know !!! 😀 😀 😀 I was ROFL @ the toilet when I read that ! 😀
ROTFL!!
you actually took the pains of swapping signs in a crowded place and took photos of the same?!! 🙄
In one of the restrooms in a Mall I also found the line – “do not squat on the seat!” 😆
ROTFL @ your fiancee’s reaction!! 😀
My sympathies are with her!!!! 😉 😉
Also, me fifth! 😀 😀
ya, otherwise I wouldnt get this comment from you, na ? 😉
do not ‘whaat’ on the seat ?? ROFL !!! 😀 😀 😀
your sympathies are with her because you are fifth ??? 😀 😀 😀
So you are now preaching what you practics haan?? 😀 😀 😛 😛
And Aim properly is indeed priceless 😀
Oyyy….when did you listen to my preaching ??? and why were you there when I preached about bathrooms ? 😀 😀 😀
Yeh lo!!
You keep preaching here in the blog and now ask when did I listen to them?? Tcch Tcch!! You are growing old!!! Forgetting everything! Start having chywanaprash!!
And how Can I miss the preachings of Baba Snangrah!!! Aap na ho to snangrah ka koi maan hi na ho!!!
Jai ho Baba Snangrah ki!
So that means you DO read my posts ! 😀 😀 😀
Look whos talking about growing old !!! Guess who forgot their own name while commenting for Sakhis interview at Speakbindas ! 😀 😀 😀
I know ! Only after meeting me in August, you understood the importance of taking bath ! I hope you are still taking bath ! 😉
Of Course I DO read your posts, how could you even suggest otherwise??? I mean in most of your posts you narrate an incident where you make a fool of yourself and I can not miss reading them can I??? 😛 😛
And as far as forgetting names is concerned you know whats the real reason behind writing Sakhi there?? I wanted to tell her am your friend, simple 😀
Only taking bath?? After meeting you I understood the importance of so many thing…I can write a post out of the learnings 😀
LOL, fool out of myself ??? I got inspired from you 😀 😀 😀
oh yeah, stop beating around the bush ! Admit it, you are getting old ! 😀 😀
Please do ! That will enlighten the rest of the bloggers too ! 😀 Oh no, not that purple-violet story ! 😀
Purple Violet story?? ha ha ha thats just tip of the ice berg! And no I wouldn’t enlighten the reader’s let somethings be secret 😉
You get inspired from me?? lol!!! Chaddo!!!! You are God’d own inspiration & headache!! Am sure whenever you update your blog he must be getting and alert and he would mutter under his breath “now what has he done! I try to keep him away from trouble and he gets entangled in them again”.
You know whats the irony of the situation?? God can not even say “may God help him” 😀 😀
LOL !!! for the first time I liked your comment ! Only because you mentioned that God is helpess when it comes to me !!! Narcissist, huh ? 😀 😀 😀
and when I say I liked your comment, that doesnt mean Im speechless ! 😀 😀
Replace god with ‘devil’ and the comment applies to your posts ! 😀 😀 😀 For me, its god, but for you EVEN devil is helpless ! 😀
*Gulp!*
*Reads again*
*Gulps Again*
You liked my comment for the first time? You liar!!! You like all my comments, it is just that you are not brave enough to accept that 😛
Yeah, the next time I say that, Im dressing up like Gladiator ! brave, huh ! 😀
LOL..
as Ash said, u and ur bathroom tales never end
As long as bathrooms exist, yes.. 😀 😀 😀 😀
Aiyo,vimmuuu. Think of someone reading the post while having lunch :D.
my sympathies with the fiancee–what a mad group she has to put up with- before and after the day? Sigh!!! 😛
Again repeat earlier comment : Only you can think of these in terms of blogpost 😀
You read it while having lunch ??? My sympathies with you !!! 😀 😀 😀 😀
I hope I can be an inspiration to the rest of the bloggers for posts like this ! 😀
poor fiancee of yours must be really worried now 😛
and hahahhahaha hilarious instructions. one more post added to your bathroom tales eh..
yeah, she has second, third and fourth thoughts about whats to happen ! 😀 😀
ya, one more…and more to come ! 😉
Man this was great, I loved it.
You are a true observer, who observes every ‘important’ things 😀 😀
“God, what am I getting into ?” ahahah lol 😀 😀
‘important’ things, huh? 😀 😀

You mean, B-Lokam !! thats how some of the bongs and biharis calls me – Bimal ! 😀 😀
hahahahahha 😀
found you thru solilio.. thats quite an entertaining post u have hear… reminds me of the time someone(who had reached the height of frusteration with the municipal corporate here) had modified a sign board. it was placed at a road being reconstructed (for agesssss!!) and said “work in progress” . he changed it to ” work no progress”.. it made to the local newspaper and made fabulous laughing material for me the next day.
Welcome to V-Lokam and thanks for dropping in your comment.
You found me through Solilo ??? LOL, she didnt warn you about me ??? 😀 😀 😀 Well, if you didnt know, me and Solilo are always on war !! 😀 😀 😀

I like ur sense of humor.
In that crowded place u swaped the sign board and took snap to write a post and post the pic ?
Anything for a post !!! 😀 😀 😀 even if it takes to get humiliated in front of my would be ! 😀
By now she would have got used to ur blog phobia
Lol…. well, ‘Aiming Properly’ do make sense… I would not like to walk on someone’s pee on the floor… and vice versa… ke nahi?
LOL, true. But they should have used some other terms instead of ‘aim properly’ !!! and that too highlighted in yellow?? you get it?? yellow ??? 😀 😀 😀
kollam aliya kollam! you have as usual shown your true color……
just a doubt….. what will you write about when we meet in kalavara, velachery…….. the restaurant does not have a restroom……….. 😛 😛 😛 😛

LOL, true color ??? No, even if I write on bathrooms,Im too shy to show that in public ! 😀 😀 😀
A restaurant that doesnt have a restroom??? Chi chi, we will order and have it at my home then. I have two restrooms. What say ?

This post was lying in my drafts and the incident happened somewhere in Nov; felt this was the right time to publish it 😀
ROFL…. ‘Aiming properly is superb’…

there are so many signboards like this in the city but no one took it ahead to put it on the blog.great job. ..Mr. bathroom auditor
Well, someone had to bring this to public notice ! 😀
LOL! Interesting, how blogging makes bloggers more perceptive to things that we normally might not notice 🙂 Btw, looks like you are getting into an interesting family too (ie. one with a good sense of humour) 🙂
I know ! and sometimes it makes us shameless too 😀 😀 😀 😀
yeah, a ‘very’ interesting family ! 😉
Interesting, Funny… Now I am sure everywhere you go, you sure will check the bath rooms there. Oops not for the obvious reasons but def for the stated purpose! 🙂

Jokes apart, i missed inking my comments here over the past several posts, although your’s is among the very few spaces that i regularly visited via mobile. Can’t stay away from you for long, can i?

Wish you a very happy new year ! 😀
Dheivameeeeeee, yenda parayu? How do you bang upon these sign boards and notice boards?!!!
Our people will read this notice board and just follow the ‘don’t do’ rules!!
LOL !!! from where did you get that broken malayalam ?? 😀 😀 😀 😀
Look around, even you will find such Godji to do the opposite ! 😀 😀 😀
More than noticing these things, you had the inclination to click photos of them – that’s what I call genuine interest. 😀
Destination Infinity
LOL, I love your comments buddy ! you see the other side of the coin always !! 😀 😀 😀
Merry Christmas Vimmuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And hahahahahahahahahahahaha!! 😆
I thought I was the only one who notices signs like that. 😉 😛
😆

Remember once u told us all tht u had “accidently” peed on ur brother’s bathroom floor since ur ‘Satellite targetting system’ was out of order coz u were having fever!
And Big bro had to put this Warning signages in his bathrooms ever since! hehehehe

One more bathroom post! You do like bathrooms, don’t you 🙂
LOL @ ‘We loo on the Wet Floor’.
And your fiancee has got brothers just like you 🙂 No wonder she was slapping her head 🙂
You know the bathroom ‘instructions’ – my husband was telling me about some instructions like this in his office. Let me see if I can convince him to take a pic of it 🙂
B-Lokam sounds like a nice idea 😆
And once you start blogging you find blogworthiness in every picture, anywhere – bathrooms too 😆
And frankly this one was rather creative 🙂
