Automatic Flush Toilets. Do you like them?

[DirtyDeeds]

I figure this topic, as dumb as it is, might reveal some strong opinions. I will let others express themselves on the matter first before revealing my own feelings.

[AxlisOld]

Urinals? Yes. Sit down toilets? No. Public toilets seem to be powered by jet engines, and I don't need that shit firing off near my ass and giggly bits.

[DR DOOM]

I despise them.

I also despise automatic windows on cars- I've never had a problem just winding the fucking window up by hand, you know?

And it doesn't cost $1100 to replace the handle if it breaks.

Anyways, if you're too lazy to flush the fucking toilet you probably should go take a walk off a building.

[DirtyDeeds]

Without fail they flush three times before I'm finished, and then when I am actually finished, they never flush.

[SoulMonster]

Can't remember ever having any problems with them, except the occasional flush when entering the toilet. In general I approve of anything that lets me not have to touch things at public toilets, so I approve. I also like the automatic turn on of tap water when I am washing my hands, and the automatic dispensing of soap and paper to dry my hands afterwards. Now, if the doors could just open automatically too, I would actually feel clean after using a public restroom.

Honestly Deeds, you and your on-going excrement saga

[magisme]

I like them. I want my hands to touch as few things as possible when I'm in a public bathroom.

[Rovim]

NO!

[Patience 4 Axl]

Yes , I appreciate them. Especially the ones with a sensor. If it doesn't flush I just wave my hand in front of it. Otherwise with the manual flush toilets I use my foot to press the handle down. Depending on what I'm wearing, getting my leg up can be a bit of a pain.

Why, whats wrong with your hands?

[Lio]

Seems like some of you have a phobia. Why not push the handle with your hands? I always wash my hands afterwards, so what's the problem?

Phobia? Oh they're scared of it? Like, someone with pooey hands might've touched it? Well look at it, if you see any smears or peanut tracks then whats the problem? Seriously though, thats mental, how'd you open the door to get in the toilet then? And how'd you know that person ain't been and used the pens in the bank you're going to afterwards...or how'd you know someone whoose pen you borrow ain't like, not washed his hands...or when you use someones mobile?

Not a big problem, just generally don't like touching other people's shit. Try to not do that if I can, even if I have access to a wash. Not saying I don't push the handle with my hands, just that I would prefer not having to as in automatic flushing. In addition to the general unpleasantness of being exposed to other people's excrement and urine, I also find it especially unhygenic if I have cuts and wounds on my hands because, in theory at least, I could get infected with something before I get to wash it off. So yeah, I like automatic toilets, and taps, and soap dispensers and doors in and out of the restroom.

*whistles* mentaaaaalllllll

[SoulMonster]

I prefer not to be among the unwashed plebs.

[Dazey]

I can see where they would come in handy.

[DR DOOM]

To be fair though, that was after 9 pints and a vindaloo, and it came out of my mouth not my ass.

[wasted]

Like is a strong word but do I not give a fuck if it flushes is one for the ages.

[Len Cnut]

The best bogs are them ones with the tank and pull chain, you could flush an elephant down them...and i should know, some of the logs i've jammed down em, Mother of God, its like trying to flush a canoe Seriously though, I get visions of Gene Hackman clocking em on sub-marine radar and shit. 'And shit', i like it

Geeez! You guys are fucking hilarious!!!'

On topic: Yes I like auto flush toilets. I lived in Singapore for 6 years and honestly, people there seemed to have an aversion to flushing the toilet.

A more expensive restaurant or a fancy shopping centre always had auto flush toilets (obviously it's a problem) so that is where I would go if I really had to. Otherwise I'd wait until I got home.

[tomfriend]

Well that's the crux of it isn't it. Who are these twats who leave a steaming heap in the lav then can't be bothered to push the handle, and why? If you're that proud of your work at least sign it and give it a title.
