Most writings in bathroom stalls remain in the realm of sophomoric humor and purposeless nonsense. Although, every now and again, you find a golden nugget, a diamond in the roughage if you would. These bits of insightful (and often hilarious) scribble are all the more potent considering that they are almost completely unexpected. My favorite example of this is the following quote from a McDonalds bathroom:
QuoteAny asshole can piss on the floor. Be a hero and shit on the ceiling.
So, ITT, we list all the would-be-literary-masterfeces of the John Keats of the John. So quit stalling and relieve yourself of what you've seen.
Yeah, I've seen that one before. Bathroom graffiti would be better, I think, it it were original more often.
Anyway,

There's a Borders in Boston near the central branch of the Boston Public Library that has a bunch of pun graffiti on the second floor.
It's all written in the grout between tiles on the wall and reads such as:
Grout Expectations
The Grout Gatsby
In Grout We Trust
etc.

That seems a bit grout-uitous...
those are some groutesque puns
Let's not say anything we might re-grout...
Yeah, that was pretty terrible.
Whatever, let's potty like it were 1999.
QUIT IT.

There is a stall in one of the Yale libraries where someone went in and proofread all the other graffiti. I don't know if that counts, but it made me lol.

:lulz: That's great, I might steal that bit.
I was taking a crap in a Borders the other day. Most of the wall was taken up by a big multi-person religious debate. Some, of course, were "Jesus is your only path to salvation, accept him or burn in hell!" followed by "There's no evidence, bad things have been done in the name of religion, etc." It was probably the biggest ongoing debate I've seen in a bathroom stall.
Also hidden among these paragraphs was "Heisenberg may have shit here." I may have laughed out loud at that one.

I remember seeing a debate/flamewar on a bathroom stall door at the University of Tennessee in 2000.
A good way to make bathrooms more interesting is to tape a sharpie on a string to the inside of the stall. Best spot is right next to the door, where it will be hidden if you open the door to clean the toilet.
my girlfriend did this at her college, and within a week there was a bible worth of graffiti in there
That's a great idea!
