What do you say when someone knocks on a bathroom door/stall you are in?

[Carn]

I slap my thighs and moan "I'm coming I'm coming"

 

[Deleted member 9932]

serenity now

 

[Posty McPostface]

I say that it's occupied then continue with my business, since I don't overthink every mundane occurrence in my life.

 

[TigerKnee]

"The door's locked for a fucking reason"

 

[take_marsh]

Aaaaallmoooooost dooooooone *extended grunt*

 

[Baneros]

Does it really matter? No matter what you say, at the end of the day there's still a 50% chance it's gonna be a pretty shitty response.

 

[Mesoian]

"occupied"

 

[davepoobond]

i alternate between "i'm using it!" and saying nothing.

 

[Torpedo Vegas]

bring this up on my phone and play it at max volume.

At my workplace they don't knock. They usually don't see the red lock so they try to open it directly. So because of that, I stay silent

"occupied"

Yeah, this. I think it may have happened once or twice in my lifetime.

 

[DragonSJG]

Come in

 

[pleaseinsertdisctwo]

"Come in!"

Click to shrink...

LMAO imma use this from now on

 

[Strike]

"Someone's in here."

 

[Bio]

I just say "Yes?" with an inflection in my tone that makes it clear how fucking absurd what they're doing is. Have never once had someone actually respond, instead of just moving on.

 

[oledome]

who's there??

 

[LegalEagleMike]

Ope

 

[sgtnosboss]

I scream "help! there is so much, SO MUCH POOP" as loud as I can

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

You're missing the preemptive option. A well-timed sniffle/cough/rustle to alert them someone's in there before they even knock. Has worked wonderfully all my life.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

I make grunting noises and say "Jesus take the wheel".

 

[RavFiveFour]

Alright thread is a little bit TMI likely say just a minute.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Usually just say Yo!

 

[mxbison]

Never happened to me. Why would someone knock when its obviously closed?

 

[AstronaughtE]

Sometimes I give ETA like "this just started, it will be 5-30 minutes. Might wanna look elsewhere if you can't wait."

Typically, it's just "yeah."

 

[Ducarmel]

Cleaning lady is just doing her job. Everybody will knock first before they try and open the door.


When I have to be professional or in public, I say "occupied" or "give me a couple of minutes"


If I'm at home or somewhere I'm comfortable at. "I'm pooping", "doing number 2", "I'm blowing it up", etc

 

[The Albatross]

I let out a loud fart an groan uncomfortably.

 

[T002 Tyrant]

I usually growl "There is no Dana only Zuuuul"

 

[shnurgleton]

I make the Bobby Hill surpise noise

 

[Stinkles]

"The door's locked for a fucking reason"

the people who shake the door in its frame as hard as they can instead of gently pushing it should all be meltsticked

 

[Kevinsky]

Reminds me of these

[NoblesseOblige]

One moment please, let me get dressed.

 

[shnitzel]

i'll usually clap a few times until the invader will go away.

 

[Duane]

"Full house!"

 

[Bitanator]

I'm partial to the old Midnight Cowboy line myself

 

[SavoyPrime]

The ol' trusty "Occupied."

 

[JohnDusk]

I yell: "Estoy cagando!"And I carry on with my day. ;)

 

[Blue Sky Noise]

make loud farting and groaning sounds with my mouth

 

[Wood Man]

This happened the other day. I just yelled back "Heeeeey" in a low voice.

They ran away

 

[veras]

shitter's full

This is what I came to say. Who are these people? The door is locked and they're trying to rip the door off it's hinges. Take a hint people.

 

[Walter White Walker]

I don't use bathroom stalls but my response would likely be "Fuck off."

 

[PSOreo]

"Whatever you're selling, I ain't buying it right now"

 

[EraldoCoil]

"sup"

 

[pochi]

Knock back.

 

[lurksalot]

 

[samoscratch]

Occupied!

 

[MrToughPants]

Come in!

 

[Techno]

we negotiate

come to an agreement

 

[Nose Master]

Literally has never happened to me once. But, I say "hi!" when the cleaning staff asks if the bathroom itself is occupied, tho.
