No love for the handicapped-

I was in an older building yesterday, go into the restroom, stand at the urinal and discover that to flush the toilet you step on a pedal near the floor. Now, I think this is quite nice. I hate touching any handle in a public restroom. And most of the time, when in a stall, I just kick the handle on the toilet.

But I notice this massive cage in the handicapped stall. So I take a peek. Its like a freaking jungle gym in there. I mean, there wasnt just the little side rails. There were rails that go over the top, and back down to the floor. It looked like it was the training ground for some kind of gymnastics event.

But here is the kicker- that same flush pedal is in there. A foot pedal for the handicapped. Stop to think about that........

Wouldnt most people using that stall be in a wheel chair because they cant use their legs? How jacked is that. Let the handicapped take a massive crap, and then laugh at them because they either have to leave it in the toilet, or push the nasty FOOT pedal with their hand - BECAUSE THEY CANT USE THEIR LEGS! Great design asshats.

I guess thats why you dont see those foot pedals anymore. ;)

You know while Im at it, I hate those little sensors on toilets. You know, the ones that know when to flush when you walk away. On a urinal its cool, but it sucks on a toilet. How many times has this happened to you guys? You walk in the stall, get out the butt gasket, get it all set up on the seat, stand up and turn around, pull your pants down and the toilet flushes sucking your neatly placed butt gasket down the toilet! Stupid ass sensor! I didnt leave! Im still here with my pants down!! So you pull your pants up, get a new butt gasket, and then try to stay as close as possible to the sensor so it doesnt jack you again.

Well here is a handy tip to help avoid this situation. When you first get into the stall, take a little length of TP and fold it in half and lay it over the sensor. That should prevent the pre-empted flush.

Enough of this toilet talk.
