Automatic flushing

Post by docellis »

almost all the toilets i frequent on a regular basis have automatic flushers.

this has made me lazy and i wish there was no such thing as automatic flushers.

I don't like touching toilets. Gross.

We have those in the building that I work in. And one of them is super sensitive. Let's just say that a subtle shift in position creates quite an exhilaration.

I tried to stop using automatic flushers two weeks ago, but they went and flushed anyway.

I think several of the folks at work think we have automatic flushing urinals. News flash: we don't, and I'm tired of walking up to a urinal full of pee.

automatic flushers are much nicer than walking past a row of urinals and smelling everyone's asparagus intake for the day.

I appreciate them on urinals, but I hate them on sitters. When I'm tidying up afterwards it'll go off two or three times just because I'm standing near it, wasting water anyway.

Once in a while, you can hit a fully automated bathroom. Toilet, sink, soap, and towels/blower. No contact whatsoever.

Maybe if you're a guy who has to go pee. But think of the Will Rikers, women, and goats.

Until we get automatic doors and force field seat levitators, I will not declare a bathroom fully automated w/ no contact required.
