At our local Hookah bar:
"Hailey likes butt, pee and iced tea."

"Don't smell the flowers they are an evil drug to make you lose your mind."
Dillons beach ca. womens room

In the Men's room at a bar called the Copper Keg in Long Beach, Ca., circa 1980:
"Mag, Mag, you slimy slut
between your thighs green matter lies-
and worms crawl out of your butt.
Before I'd mount your bony frame
or suck your slimy tits- I'd rather drink stale drunkard's puke
and die of bubling zits."

Another standout from the Navy base in Long Beach, Ca. This was in a really rank porta-potti :
"I've sailed across the ocean blue and shit wherever they told me to.
I've roamed around this golden state and shit in places that weren't so great.
(I don't really want to brag but once I shit on a sleeping fag)
I've shit from the bridge in 'Frisco Bay but what I really truely want to say
is that I've shit in Rome and I've shit in France
but before I'd shit here I'd shit my pants."
