Beyond toilet walls...

Post by Maharlika »

Last month I left Bangkok with some friends on my way to the province of Suratthani, heading to the island of Koh Samui, when we stopped over a gas station.

My intestines were on fire so I had "to go."

The gas station was fairly new and I suppose that its toilets would be clean therefore a comfy way "to go." Sure enough, the place was a great place "to let go." There was no one there, or so I thought.

The first stall was closed (as it was occupied) so I headed on to the next cubicle after the second.

Just when I was seated and poised to emit a very "silent" fart, I heard a voice from the next cubicle...

"Hi, how are you doing?"

HOLY-SHEESH-KEBAB!!! :eek: I thought in my mind. With the very "audiodynamic" set up of the room, I would have thought that it was God talking to me if I knew I was alone. The voice was resonating all over the place.

Normally, I would keep as dead silent as possible in a situation like this so no one would think I was there. I am certainly not the type to chat with strangers in highway comfort rooms or any comfort room for that matter. (SYMian Men's Room an exception ;) ) What was I to do? run? keep quiet? so many questions in my mind... :rolleyes:

I really don't know what has gotten into me, but anyway, I answered, a little embarrassed:

"Pretty good, I guess!"

And the stranger said:

"Whats UP with you?"

Talk about your unnervingly dumb questions! WHO THE HELL IS THIS GUY? (In my mind) I looked up the ceiling thinking that the guy is actually above the cubicle looking down and that he saw my "thingy" in an UPright position. :o ("YIKES!") I was really beginning to think this was just TOO WEIRD! So I said:

"WELL, JUST LIKE YOU I'M MAKING CR@P!" :mad:

Then, I heard the person, all upset, say, "Look, I'll call you back, there's some idiot in the next toilet answering all the questions I am asking you."

:D

My hubby does that sometimes...he only calls me, though (AFAIK), since it's mostly when he's angry about something related to his job, and don't want his co-workers to hear him. :D

@Maharlika:

ROTFLOL!

That's a classic, to be remembered always and committed to the hallowed halls of history.

By the way, Maharlika is a Tagolog (sp?) word, isn't it? I lived in the Philippines years ago (79-82), and I seem to recall hearing it, or a word like it, in a certain commerical...

...saw your pic too at Grunt's thread... you look like an adventurer... very apt for those who dare to roam in this forum. :D

Yes, Maharlika is a Tagalog word, but to be more politically correct, it is a Filipino word. ;) Maharlika is old Filipino for noble way back before Magellan came and the Spaniards colonized the islands.

You'd probably heard the name on the telly --- Maharlika Broadcasting Television (MBS) Channel 4. :cool:

So you stayed in the Phils before Ninoy Aquino got assassinated at the tarmac... did you live in one of the US bases there (Clark Air Base in Pampanga or Subic Naval Base in Olongapo)?

@Gruntboy: Hey Mr. Bloom ( ;) ), you'd get your intestines on fire if you had been eating the local food here! :D

@Ysh: Dont ask me, ask Weasel... :rolleyes: :D ... but if someone called me while sitting on the throne...

@Tammy: You would actually think it was God talking to you if the man spoke with a resonating, well modulated James Earl Jones voice. :cool:

@Beldin: Just dawned on me that Weasel might have been speaking to associates of the late Mr. Crapper. :D

I admit to a bit of confusion regarding my understanding of the language. It's been quite a few years since I was there. Thanks! :)

I remember the San Miguel beer jingle, LOL :D (it was very catchy). How could I ever forget "Mag beer muna tayo?" I don't know if 'maharlika' was in there, but it seems to me it was. We would watch Filipino TV often, as the old reruns on FEN grew stale after a while. Funny how one remembers commercials, eh?

Hearing about Mt. Pinotubo's (sp?) eruption, and subsequent devastation, was almost unreal. I had so much fun when I lived there - I was but a lad - it was hard to imagine the Philippines I remember devastated that way. :(
did you live in one of the US bases there (Clark Air Base in Pampanga or Subic Naval Base in Olongapo)?


We lived in Clark Air Base. Of the many things etched in my memory of this beautiful country - and people - I'll never forget my caribou ride in a rice paddy. I garnered much respect for the farmer that day, for riding on the back of a caribou was a prickly experience!

There's lots of history there, to be sure. My elementary school class took an awesome field trip to a Spanish fortification near Manila. I can't remember the name of the place - I wish I could.

Writing about this brings back a flood of memories. :)
