my computer barely boots up in the morning before I make my way to the handicapped stall
Jonathan: Why don't they make all bathroom stalls handicap ones, its the only ones I use
Me: I'm glad the handicapped bathroom stalls don't follow the same rules as their parking lot counterparts
Jonathan: Close to the door???
Me: no, you must be handicapped to use them
Jonathan: What would they have you do scan ur wheels or crutches?
Me: hangtag on the door handle
or maybe you'd have to show an id to get TP
Jonathan: so back to the chipotle... what would happen if chipotle started serving starbucks coffee also
