a gig i had in italy a couple of years ago was at a tired old manufacturing site. originally built pre-war and then upgraded in the 50's.
they had no sit down toilets. they were all tulipholes.
being a manufacturing site the tulipholes were, on the whole, nasty, tiled floor to wall and wet (a tap to flush the floor as well as a tap to flush the hole).
now that place was a tuliphole. a least we don't have to strip to take a dump here.

Originally posted by thunderlizardWow, I had formulated a spur of the moment theory, but OwlHoot had got there before me.
Good economic climate, most contractors are working hard and don't have time to post decent stuff on places like this. In fact, the only contractors with spare time are the really bottom-of-the-barrel ones, for whom lowbrow drivel is a way of life. (I count myself in that latter number.) Simple economics. This forum was brilliant circa 2000-2003.

Personally the forum that was run in the 60s via the Times personal column was better.

I remember the old forum in the late 90s. It was a lot worse with member insulting each other.
IT is a really boring industry to be in therefore the forum is a place to have some fun and conversation when one's workplace is lacking fellow contractors.
