Title: Compulsion

Apparently George W. Bush is now giving out relationship advice on bathroom walls, and in the women's bathroom no less.

Found this written in a bathroom at Portland State University tonight and it made me laugh so I took a photo of it as part of my ever ongoing bathroom graffiti photo project. It's an odd hobby, I know, but I frequent a lot of public restrooms while out on my walks (the unfortunate consequence of drinking gallons of coffee) and I'm always amused, surprised, and baffled by what I find written on bathroom walls, so I started taking photos of it a few years ago and one of these days I'll get around to doing a project with the photos.

I don't know why, but this tidbit made me chuckle when I saw it. Perhaps it was just the silliness of it and the fact that I wasn't expecting to walk into a bathroom stall and find relationship advice from the "president." That and the note is written in a different colour ink than the signature, which made me wonder what inspired the second person to sign W's name to it. I mean, if the man can't handle war, then he has no business doling out relationship advice.
