JimVanDeventer , (edited ) in Dutch toilets

Pedophiles in the olympics, our strange toilets with the “poop shelf”; I just can’t win today.

Edit: it’s so you can inspect it. How is everyone else inspecting their poo?

VonReposti ,

I think for most people it’s kinda a shit n forget situation. As soon as I have dropped the load I want to disown it and forget it faster than you can say “shit”. You know just like pa did it.

American toilets gave me culture shock

They’re so shallow that you can’t even sit down without your balls touching the bowl or the water

I think you might want to get your balls looked at.

I hated them, they made me anxious. But much worse were the low stall walls. Why america, why? When I take a shit I want a wall that actually serves the purpose of not having people see me taking a shit.

On another note, the Dutch style toilets were very common in Germany up until the 90s. Rare nowadays. I think they are actually superior. You see it, if you have a problem with your shit and even the largest shit doesn’t splash water all over your intimate parts. On the other hand, you have to protect your balls from the large shit, when it goes “timber”.

Zink ,

I’ve always known that our stall walls in the US were shit, but then I visited Sweden and saw how truly horrible we were.

Over there, there are no men’s rooms or women’s rooms. There are just several doors each to a private bathroom and so it doesn’t matter who uses which one.

I’m sure our “single room with flimsy stall dividers” design is the cheapest, plus it’s not as convenient for all the drug addicts and homeless people our society creates, so it will never change.

bitchkat ,

I think you mean high stall walls and not low. You’re talking about the huge gap so the janitors can sweep and mop easier.

menemen ,
@menemen@lemmy.world avatar

No, I meant that I literally could see people taking a shit when walking in the restrooms at several places, because the walls were just ~180cm high (and I am taller than 180cm).

bitchkat ,

I’ve never seen stall walls that short but usually when I’m sitting, I would not be able to see over it. Generally the giant gaps between panels are enough to let someone see you from the door.

That would be pretty fucking sick… if it was done on a closed course like an old airstrip or a closed highway for filming… not an active interstate…

Meaning, there are actually stories just like this one. Right? Or are they being pedantic in their likeness? (I hope the latter…)

no the “xyz be like” phrasing implies means it’s parody

No, I got that part. Sorry. I don’t think I’m explaining myself properly. Has a similar story been posted with the same “I’m an awesome manager” pretense that they’re specifically making fun of, or is the post making fun of the types of posts on LinkedIn in general? I think, if I’m understanding the responses here correctly, it’s the latter and I just took it too literally.

zarkanian ,
@zarkanian@sh.itjust.works avatar

I think it’s the latter.

Understood. Thanks for taking the time here. I promise I wasn’t trolling. I know it sounded like it, but I genuinely misunderstood.

lennivelkant ,

I’m in your boat often enough. Sometimes a post assumes familiarity with a context and it may be hard to figure out the intent or sincerity without that familiarity.

TheMinions ,

It’s technically a strawman argument.

tetris11 ,
@tetris11@lemmy.ml avatar

I’ve seen sadly similar stories spouted…

flerp ,

It can’t possibly be a strawman argument, it’s not even an argument at all

TheMinions ,

Straw man fallacy then?

_stranger_ ,

The word you’re trying to shoehorn strawman into is “sardonic”.

I heard somewhere that Tony Shalhoub’s character was supposed to be blazed out of his gourd through the movie, but they removed the drug references to save the rating.

But my goodness, that guy is blazed out of his gourd through the movie.

samus12345 , in Dutch toilets
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

They had these in Germany, too. If you took a particularly massive shit sometimes the water pressure wasn’t enough to shove it into the hole.

bitchkat ,

I already commented about a poop knife so I won’t repeat it here.

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Fortunately there was always plunger handy for pushing, so no chopping was needed.

simplejack ,
@simplejack@lemmy.world avatar

Problem has more to do with the streaks. There are many.

lennivelkant ,

…then you use the brush to clean them? Is that a big deal?

simplejack ,
@simplejack@lemmy.world avatar

The big deal is the frequency.

Sarmyth ,

Just saying you have a process for dealing with the problem is not as good as solving the problem.

Is there some other problem being solved by the shelf? Like do they have really terrible water pressure and need to rely on gravity and a slope?

lennivelkant ,

In my experience, the shelf helps avoid having water splash your nethers, which happens to me more often than leaving streaks, so I prefer it over having my urine splash back up at me.

el_bhm ,

Just scrape off with knife. You have to be told everything?

SteveXVII ,

These toilets also don’t help with covering the smell of shit.

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

I mean, you flush it down regardless, so I never noticed a difference as far as that goes.

PeterLossGeorgeWall ,

If it drops right in water it’s much less smelly. I’ve used em all over different times, if you’ve got a real bad smelling poo you don’t want that on no shelf!

SteveXVII ,

Not if you take your time.

*turns to page 60 like a boss

Rediphile ,

“Welcome to page 60! Just as anticipated, your rebellious nature resulting from your lived experiences left you no choice but to rebel against the rules of the book and pick this page.”

hellfire103 ,

But why 60? Is every page of the book like this? Or has it used a sort of behavioural psychology to make me choose 60 instead of another page?

Rediphile ,

It’s not 60 for everyone, but it is for some. Everyone has vastly different lived experiences dictating their ‘choices’ of which page.

So yeah, behavioural psych-ish.

Maybe, I don’t know, train your dog not to bark at everything? Your neighbors will both thank you AND not consider you to be a shithead owner.

Some people do not deserve dogs.
