The expression "this is why we can't have nice things" comes to mind when I think about public toilets in Chicago. There's always some idiot that wipes shit all over the stall or vomits on the floor or blows up the toilet with an M80.
- cmurf 12y agoHumans frequently have gastric distress. With large enough volume of people, it's not if, but when, someone is going to have an uncontained event. I once thought about how the world would be different if we were like rodents and essentially lacked bladder and sphincter control, if we'd have to all wear diapers all the time (think of the landfill waste so probably we'd have figured out something else but what) and what ballgames would be like. Probably holes in the seats. Because how else could we have a functioning society? We'd actually probably be a lot better at sewage control because otherwise it'd always be everywhere.
- vacri 12y agoThere's still the matter of cleaning up after yourself. The toilet doesn't have to sparkle like an advert, it just needs to be usable by the next person. I have gastric distress as often as the next person, but I'm going to clean up a seat that I make filthy.
- cmurf 12y agoYeah most people don't do that. They don't care that someone else has to clean up after them. Happens all the time in many other contexts of pure greed and self-interest and simply not getting caught and told off about how they're pissing in the pool. Seriously, people need a lot more Pei Mei in their life.
