I've been looking for an outlet for this ball of rage, so here goes:
WTF is up with the self-flushing toilets that can't tell whether you are there or not? It is an absolutely horrendous feeling when, halfway through your business, the toilet flushes and SPLASHES WATER all over your ass. It will even do it multiple times in one sitting on some occassions. This is completely unacceptable.
Are you telling me that we can put a man on the moon, communicate instantaneously around the world, split and recombine atoms, grow a human ear on the back of a mouse, and yet we cannot get a single damn porcelain toilet to flush at the proper time??
Don't get me wrong- I understand the need. People, particularly male people, are disgusting and often do not flush unless to toilet does it for them because they are disgusting and too lazy to get rid of their own crap. Which is about as damn lazy as you can get. What we really need are doors than lock and refuse to open unless you WASH YOUR NASTY PEE-COVERED HANDS!!! But I digress. People are stupid and can't remember to flush, so fine, make it automatic. But would it kill you to put a pressure switch on it so it doesn't flush until AFTER you stand (OMG innovation!). Or, wait for it, PUT THE SENSOR ON THE STALL DOOR!! The toilet will flush when you enter and when you leave. "But wait!" the bleeding heart environmentalist cries, "That's wasting water! Two flushes per visit! The polar bears will all die!" That would be a good point, IF the damn thing didn't already flush 3-4 times every time I used it. And also polar bears are awesome and they don't need you.
Or, let's just let people handle their own shit (literally) and those with bad hygeine will all die from E Coli, and the clean will inherit the earth.
