This has happened to me several times: I'm trying to use a public restroom and someone knocks on the door. I respond "someone's in here," they wait a few moments, then knock again.
Now, I don't think anything is going to come out any faster because you knock twice. It's plain rude. When I do come out, wipe that snotty look off your face. I won't start pinching anything off to appease you.
The best part- there's a friggin bathroom right over there! (Literally, a bathroom five feet away.) You don't have to use this one.

Would this bother you guys? is it normal that it bothers me?

    It would bother me, yes. I don't even like the first knock. If the door is shut, someone is in there. Repeating the knock to get someone to rush is just rudeness. It's times like that I wish there was another secret exit to the cubicle so I could sneak out that way and leave them knocking all day.

    I'd even come back to the bathroom and wash my hands really slowly so I could observe them in their futile knocking.

      I have never had this happen to me , but I usually knock once and wiat up against the wall if someone says thier in here or i simply push to see if one will open however this sometimes resualts in a very embarrasing moment as some the doors dont stay shut becuase they are broken .However I just wiat against the wall I dont keep knocking repeatedly unless maybe it was like my family or somthing and we had a short time period in which we had to leave the premisiese .

        Hehe, I was once in this weird club where the male toilets had just one cubicle and no urinals. I went up there and the door was partially open so I pushed it. Unfortunately there was a man on the other side peeing and I pushed the door against him and made him pee all over himself. :/

            Only the next day. At the time it happened I was very, very drunk and so confused that even after it happened, I still kept on pushing the door. :)
