- 1. When you realize that you and your neighbor have finished using the bathroom at the same time so you delay exiting the stall a few seconds to avoid any uncomfortable eye contact or "excuse me"s while leaving the stall. Wait period is usually until the person reaches the buffer zone of the sink, where all normal social etiquettes are re-activated. > "Hmm...Bob and I just flushed at the same time. I better wait a few seconds so I don't run into him." Source: ecdict
