Out for a morning jog, I saw something unexpected, a “Trail Closed” sign. Thankfully, it was accompanied by a detour sign that led through a park.

Figuring that I would take advantage of the park’s amenities, I stopped at the port-a-potty. Never a good idea, but any port in a storm, right?

As I exited, I read a tiny sign on the port-a-potty door, a portion of which read, “Excessive use may result in unsatisfactory conditions.”

Ugh, yep, I should say so. How about, “Any use results in unsatisfactory conditions and excessive use is just plain gross,” instead?

Detour advice – useful.

Port-a-potty advice – extremely understated.
