Moved recently and noticed the toilet flushes the opposite direction here.  Old was CCW, new is CW.

I love how people think which side of the equator you're on matters... Ours goes down counter...

Ah, the good ol' coriolis effect. Most people probably think this as the direct result of The Simpsons. But you are correct, where on the world doesn't make a difference.

Long time ago I actually tried to make it flush in the opposite direction.  Don't ask..  failed.

I'm amazed to see that you took the time to ponder about which way your fecal matter gets disintegrated.

It's sort of easy to change the direction... just open up the back of your toilet, lift up the thing in the middle that allows outgoing flow, and pour water down at whatever angle you want. It's really a waste of water though...

On a side note, indoor bathrooms seem just as sensible as cars... "Let's get rid of our feces in the comfort of our own home.. usually in the same place we go to get clean!" I swear, the whole human race is nuts.

yeah just go outside and take a shit, run around with a dirty ass, and let someone step in it, why not.

You've never heard of an outhouse?

Counter-clockwise.

Outhouses don't work in cities, okay, not enough places to store the poops

Only viable if you're living on the side of a mountain with your coyote friends where the next neighbor is three hundred miles away

Sanity is overrated =P

The upstairs toilet is counter clockwise. The downstairs toilet is clockwise.

One mile away... but close enough. And sanity is statistical... that's the main problem.

Counterclockwise.

(5:14:50 AM) FrOzeN: Um.. no-spin toilet here.. :-/

I like the toliets that just suck everything back.

The ones where u piss into a giant pool of blue water, like on a bus or something are something interesting.

Most humans I know, wash in a bath/shower or sink, aposed to a toilet :D
The only humans I know to wash in a toilet, were geeks at school who got bog washed by force :P

My toilet washs around the bowl to the front, then flows down. The left side has slightly more force than the right tho.

The sense of smell works by your body sampling particles of whatever you smell. The fact you smell shit means shit's in the air. Therefore anything in contact with air that smells like shit has a high chance of having shit on it.

And the particles of shit are alot heavyer than the air in which they linger in, thats why after awhile they sink into the floor.
Its the heat from your shit that orginaly lifts the particles into the air. Thats why most bathrooms have air vents :P
I for one wouldnt use the bathroom right after somone has done a shit, that would just plain suck.
Also your washing your self, so will probly be way cleaner after you wash than right after you do a shit. (after all the shit comes out of you, and makes contact with your outa body)
I think you need to just go and do a big fat stinking shit and get over your weird phobia of smells :P

btw im just pulling your chain*

An outhouse has shit in it, and according to what you're saying, whenever someone unloads their product, shit particles will linger in the air regardless.

How's an outhouse any different from a bathroom, other than the fact that bathrooms are cleaned (assuming you do clean it)?

Unless you like using outhouses to converse with fellow poop-smearers, I just don't see the benefit of having one, at least in this day and age.

Because outhouses do not contain bathtubs, sinks, towels, toothbrushes, soaps, and scrubbing devices. Why do I need to spell everything out for you people?

Maybe I'm missing something here...but doesn't it have to do with both functions needing running water?

Water's also needed for washing machines and dishwashers, do you see them in the bathroom, or even together?

You're still not answering my question.

But then again, what do I know. You seem to see the reality in things, so you tell me.

Or is it that your reality is actually a mere ripple?

I dunno about you, but some people want privacy when they use a toilet.
It makes sence to have those types of rooms separate.
Most newish family houses i have seen have a bath room and a toilet room, because it can be a problem when everyone wants to use them at once, 2+ roomes is more convenient.

Those are for washing and cleaning somthing it seems you have little experience with the meanings of :P Or just not very good at.
I can picture you running out of your outhouse after you do a crap, as if the smell was nuclear fallout. Its just rotten broken down food with nutrients missing and byproduct gas's, hence the differnt smell.
Just 1 snif of shit is millions of times worse than useing items to wash with that have been in a room that had the smell of shit lingering in it.
They will stick in your lungs and you wont be washing them out (or maybe you try to?)
You seem to talk alot of shit, so im guessing you inhail the smell of it alot.
Most of the things you eat have grow from shit, or eaten somthing that grow from shit. All that smell of shit that escapes out of treatment plants/toilets, a small percentage will absorb into water, that you may later drink or onto food that you may then eat.
Did you have a bad experience with the smell of shit before or somthing?

Not really. I've been posting with tongue-in-cheek, but you however, seem to be entertaining this whole-heartedly.

By the way, where do you wash your hands after using an outhouse? I mean, with the number of people that float through and all, it's bound to be infested with germs.

Thank God I have a sink to wash up after my deeds.

Ideally, a creek or stream would be where I'd wash my hands...

you are ridiculous

RealityRipple is trying to become one with nature, isn't it obvious? That's the ultimate goal for all of us humans! All of these technological advances, gidgets, gadgets and doo-wads are driving us nowhere but FARTHER AWAY from nature! The true light of existence is being blocked by civilization itself, can't you see that!?!! RealityRipple is right about everything. Us arrogant humans do nothing but consume, consume, and then say we are better then any other animal because we CAN and do consume nature, the giver of all life.
My god is this a problem! I have an idea of how we can fix it though:

1. Reject society
2. Start living in the woods
3. Eat leaves, dirt, insects, and even our own fecal matter (as some animals do)
4. Not use common sense
5. Start using all four of our appendages to walk
6. Make strange noises
7. Use a series of grunts and uggs to communicate with eachother
8. Invite parasitic insects to live on our body
9. Live in completely unsanitary conditions
10. Never bathe in a stream, or lake, or anything of that sort
11. Turn into tarzans

Then maybe, without all the planetary stress being put on it by humans, nature can HEAL itself, just as an animal could!

Why didn't I think of that! Washing my hands in some guy's urine from upstream is definitely more ideal.

Wow... I pity you, brew. You almost had the right idea, there.

And why would one urinate into the stream? I'm not sure I see the logic behind that.

C'mon now, Mr. Sachen... just because you don't see the logic in it doesn't mean that it doesn't happen.  Unless you own the entire creek/stream/what-have you, I just don't see how washing your hands in one is any better than showering/cleaning yourself in the comfort of your own home.  At least one is controlled.

I do own the only stream I'd use to wash my hand in, though...

You sure proved me wrong. I guess there's no way that germs can make it into your stream now.

Do you propose that everyone get a stream of their own to wash in?

Just ignore Andy, he loves to troll and make himself look stupid.

Aww, ruin all my fun.

And what's wrong with that? If someone doesn't have a stream of their own, natural selection will kill them off for not washing their hands, thus solving the problem.
