Lol I talk to co-workers at the urinal all the time, mostly just to make them uncomfortable, like "nice inscription on your ring" or "nice watch". The only time I talk to someone in the other stall is if I know who it is.

I have a funny story about that actually. Back in early 2012 I returned from deployment and went into the bathroom and recognized my buddy's boots in the next stall. Before I sat down I rubbed my boot on the toe of his and said "poopsies together". I waited to hear a reply but none came. I said "Jake?" And a voice came back "Jake who?" Turns out it was a new Major in our sister unit that got there while I was deployed. Hearing him tell his wife the story from his point of view was the best though. "I thought it was the beginning of a prison story". Another friend told me I should have reached my hand up under the stall to shake his hand and introduce myself. I wish I'd thought of that at the time.

How so many millenials have to raise their eyebrows and scrunch their forehead in every picture they take. They are going to be some wrinkled mofos in their late 30s.

I have not noticed this. I'm not sure I know a millenial though.

It's as bad as the head tilters. Everybody has at least one friend on FB that has their head tilted in every single picture they've ever taken. Now we have lots of people who do this ridiculous face in every picture. I don't know if they're trying to make their eyes look bigger or what.

Yes, I could hear that in my post and knew that's what it sounded like when I posted it, lol. I'm getting old.

Aren't you the same age as me?

I do agree about the pics though, I just had to bring that up.
