TOILETS!




Item #1 : the Toilet/Sink or as I call it, "The Soilet."




Better wash your hands fast!

Lots of toilets have sinks on the top of them that only come on when you flush. They go off automatically when the toilet water stops.
In Horse Cave, I just leave the back off the toilet completely. That way I can wash my hands for as long as I want without having to turn on the faucet!

Item #2: The Craft-Matic Adjustable Toilet

This is a picture taken from a public restroom, so this can't be the fulfillment of all our dreams of having the TV-remote right there with us on the throne.

Since I wasn't brave enough to sit down and give it a test-drive, I can only assume it's for reclining, warming the seat a bit, and then maybe a help button.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Item #3: "Japanese Style"

At the end of the public restroom where you might expect to find a handicapped stall, I found one labelled "Japanese Style."

First of all, if it really were Japanese style, wouldn't they all be that way?

Secondly, apparently the Japanese style is to lie down on your stomach for #1 and to lie down on your back for #2. very strange.

(note: image is not rotated or flipped. it really looks like a urinal installed into the floor.)

So do you really think you can go two months without using the bathroom?

the "japanese style" at least has a little pee guard! "chinese style" ones are more stripped-down.

and they don't provide toilet paper anywhere in china, except pizza huts.
