I once found a large suspicious envelope in a women's airport restroom, but was too scared to touch it and reported it to the workerbees.

Geek NOT in my mom's basement
@baffled: I guess the artist is expressing herself with a backward F. Someone should tell her backwards letters are cliche, just like using a 'z' instead of an 's' as in 'boyz and girlz'. (I should probably give her a break because she's probably 12)

I dig those sweet vertical striped bell bottom pants! There's a style that needs to come back.

not just another mouth in the lipstick vogue
If I had any idea what my sel7 was, I would totally express it.

Maybe a British fan of S Club 7?
I'm trying to figure out what the function of the grid is, unless it's her "name in lights." Which would go along with the pop fan idea. A rainbow would have been more apt, I feel.

monkey in denial
isn't "expressing yourself" exactly what restrooms are intended for?




...oh wait, that's relieving yourself. never mind.

[p.s, right now I am chuckling like an immature idiot at the image of someone standing by a bathroom saying "I wouldn't go in for a few minutes if I were you, I just expressed myself in there]
{p.p.s, potty humor, a sure sign that I need sleep}

Oh, how I remember the day when I was so pretentious as to make all my Fs backward... Then there came the day when I had to redo every comic strip I had drawn because I suddenly realized that it was obnoxious. At least she's expressing hersel7, I guess.

She must be one of those hippie-vegetarian-pot smoking type chicks, feeling so smug. HA! Float away, honey. See if I care.

Teacher in the Pacific Northwest
At the school where I teach, there are 15-16 teachers on my floor that have to share 2 toilets. I always go over and use the hugely spacious middle school kids' bathroom, where there are 12 stalls, after walking into a cloud of some teacher 'expressing themselves' in the teacher restroom on more than one occasion. Ugh. It's a trek over there, but well worth it.

@ Teacher: expressing themselves? What are they doing?? I am picturing a physical cloud of some sort...

Hey LASH, don't be such a downer. She's totally expressing hersel7 with her choice of phrasing. Dig it.

LASH digging...

BEESWAX- I'm diggin' it...just have never heard it phrased that way...

Yup, express yourself, reach for the sky, and make sure someone is watching you in one of those toilet stalls.

Another teacher in the Pacific Northwest
The Australian movie "Danny Deckchair." That's the first thing I thought of when I saw this find. What a good movie! A contemporary movie with a 1940's movie's old-fashioned feel.

I like to share motivational sentiments with my students, too. Such as: Be true to yourself. Follow your dreams. Reach for the stars. And be crushed by people who did their homework.

Not to be too anal retentive (no pun intended for those of us who have cameras in our restrooms), but...the sky begins where the ground ends...the sky begins right by our feet...so reaching for the sky means you are most likely touching your big toe.

@another teacher: thanks for the heads-up. I'll look for Danny Deckchair. I loves me some movies. Only some.

Sounds like the inspiration for the Brazilian pastor who did a blast-off as a fundraiser for his church (deckchair, GPS, balloons) BUT he couldn't get the GPS thing to work. He disappeared from sight, got caught in air currents and his body washed up later from the sea.

Don't try that at home, unless you have the magic of modern cinema to help. Kay?

That backwards "F" in the title is the origin of the expression "What the F??"

Ha, at first I thought that was some kind of weird parachute and then I realized that those straps are really the girl's arms.
