Seriously, you never been abroad, many a muslim country don't believe in standing water so they don't have a plug in the sink and don't have a toilet bowl with water sitting in it, most houses / public toilet only ever had a hole in the ground so you stood over the hole, that's why they stand on the seat -
Last place I was at they had a flowchart off how to have a tulip, probably paid their BA an afternoons pay as well, anyhow a laminated flowchart that had a decision diamond that told you to look around, is toilte clear of waste? You were then instructed to flush again or congratulated and informed you could now move on to washing your hands.
FFS, grown blokes told how to take a tulip I ask yer......Comment

The thing that amazes me is how do they read a book/magazine or check their texts whilst crouching like that, I don't reckon I could crouch like that for my normal 20 minutes.Comment

I am imagining this and cannot figure out how someone can possibly stand on the seat and then have a crap. Who the hell invented this and how did anybody even figure out that this was how the seat got broken ?Originally posted by zeitghostIn the previous building, up the hill a bit, they used to break bog seats by standing on them whilst having a dump.
I must have reported 5 or 6 broken seats over the years.

Someone was writing on the mirrors with poo. Ewwww!
I always wondered though:-
1. Plop it, then scoop it out? Or
2. Catch it in progress?
OK I'll stop now....
Hmm surely someone with a scat fetish or seriously mentally ill.Vote Corbyn ! Save this country !Comment

To wash your feet before prayers.Originally posted by ContractorOnAMotorbike View PostI genuinely find this hard to believe. Why would stand one stand on the toilet seat?
One pull on the chain for each foot.
Was a bloke who did that at a bank I worked at in Dubai.
He was the office boy.
He also used to look down onto whoever was at their business in the neighbouring cubicles whilst in this position.
I can report from experience that this was most disconcerting.Comment
