https://t.co/2ls0dYtkWh Lol I had been standing in line for the women’s bathroom for 10 minutes, a man comes up to the men’s bathroom, sees that it’s occupied, waits 5 seconds then grumbles “Are they giving BIRTH or something?” (The person had been in there for maybe a minute) …😒 Is Phantom of the Opera just Ratatouil... |
