Once i had to take a poo in a public toilet in the US.



why can't you guys figure this out?

it's more so you know who to watch out for if you are actually able to make eye contact with whoever the poor soul is who makes this a problem for you

i've seen some dumb urinal dividers in Europe, like they were there for show and way too low and the line of sight to another's junk was clear, never seen a nonsense urinal divider in the good ol USA

The dumbest doors I've seen were at a new- at-the-time (mid 00's) rest stop. It was probably between Indy and East St. Louis or Indy and the Lincoln Tunnel as I can't remember which road trip it was, but it had stall doors are only waist high. So as you were walking to the urinal, you had full view of every Joe Schmoe taking a dump unless you're a midget.

My highschool had half height stall walls and no doors. Just walk in the room and see the upper half of everyone taking a dump. Eventually they made the walls to the ceiling, still with no doors so you had to go and look someone in the eyes if you were looking for an open stall.

When I go to my parents house for summer break and use their car, I'm always terrified im going to kill myself with that godforsaken knob. I see these around way too much and I just wait for that one accidental mistake.

Realistically, I think they have some sort of failure safe that prevents tragedy happening if the car is going over 10MPH or something. But no, I will never test that outwillingly :ohdear:

I thought maybe this was a picture of one of those holdout apartments in china where everything else for a mile is bulldozed, with a giant gently caress you built up around it.

there was some library in San Francisco that had restrooms like this. I have trouble pooping in regular stalls because of that half inch gap between the door and the frame. I couldn't imagine using a restroom with any less.

why no doors though, thats hilarious and terrifying

Weird American bathrooms are entirely built around the idea that someone will try to destroy them. The main reason you don't see doors in some places is that those same places have people who routinely tear off stall doors, or did when the building was designed.

This is why op drinks urine and eats doodie.

the gym locker room was similar but with one key difference: there was only one shitter and it was exposed to half of the locker room. gotta go before running laps? half the room can see. this one was at least perpendicular to the lockers to you didn't have to see them straight on but their top half was still visible.

The same problem also exists with many teapots.

I bought a toaster recently where the lever to lift the toast raised it maybe 1cm. It was Morphy Richards. It burned the toast too - I'm guessing too high a temp. I soon replaced it. What a piece o' crap.

I only like a little bit of milk in my tea. Spill city. And I often do a little test pour of tea before the main event to see if it's sufficiently brewed. Lastly, you savage, I don't want to be pouring at full volume as I reach the top of the cup. :colbert:
