    Looks like a bad way to potty train a child XD

  2. Bakerman says:

    I wouldn’t like to crouch in a restroom like that

  3. epster says:

    I feel sorry for the person having to empty the wastepaper basket full of used toilet paper…

    • zippycat says:

      Yep, that’s the first thing that came to my mind… *shudder*

    • coyoteman says:

      This is common in Mexico. Their sewer pipes aren’t big enough to handle paper so there is a wastebasket for its disposal. The real problem occurs when they come to the US where there is no wastebasket and they don’t know that here you can flush the paper. So they just leave it on the bathroom floor. YUCK!!!

      • toilet shark says:

        It’s the case in Athens, too – the ageing sewage system could not handle paper as well as, um, yes, so paper goes in a bin next to the loo. This caused all manner of misunderstanding, hilarity and wackiness during the Olymics, when so many people used to flushing everything did just that, and sewage started backing up through shower drains. My, how they must have laughed…

      • Jackadoobie says:

        You have no wastebaskets where you are? We have them in buffalo. Maybe they are only in each stall in girls bathrooms?

      • creatureteacher says:

        a pipe for poop? but no pipe for paper….

      • Mark. Gooley says:

        In Soviet Ukraine… when my cousin visited from there, when it was still Soviet, at first she put the used toilet paper in the tiny itty-bitty and mostly decorative wastebasket in the bathroom we let her have to herself… it took some explanation about American plumbing…

  4. LaEscopeta says:

    I get the “Please put the toilet paper in the wastepaper basket…” but what are they tryinhg to say by adding “…replace urinal.”? Lower the lid?

  5. Iva says:

    . (using) is my favourite part.

  6. Droll not Troll says:

    This is loving prompting? I think I’ll stick to the missionary position!

  7. KinkyTom says:

    “Treasure an environment”

    Even if that environment was a dumpster O_o?

  8. You fail so hard says:

    Treasure the CreaMass

  9. Rockingfreakapotamus says:

    Hmmm, CreaMass

  10. JohnB says:

    Sounds like something that might have crawled out from some bizarre S/M site.

  11. dethscul says:

    This sounds like how too play Mahjong Solitaire with toilets!

    • JohnB says:

      If you play with a toilet, is that still considered solitaire? And what do you do if the toilet wins?

      • hollyr57 says:

        Have you ever noticed (of course you have) how much of our humor is fueled by toilets, pee and poop? I guess we’re still 5 years old emotionally. I know if I read our posts to Valerie and Darcy, a 6 and 5 year old I know, they’d laugh until they cried. And then ask me for explanations.

        • JohnB says:

          My daughter just turned ten, and if I merely say the word, “fart,” she will laugh. For adults, the word usually has to be put into a sentence.

          • hollyr57 says:

            That’s the neutron bomb of funny words to Darcy. And if you follow it up with “butt”, she laughs so hard she can’t breathe. I can’t imagine actually saying “fart” in a sentence to anyone older than 12. Oh, I just did (embarrassed silence).

  12. CC says:

    In Korea, you pee in a “hole” in the ground, so you sorta straddle over it. You’re not supposed to flush the TP in it either so there’s usually a waste basket nearby to put your TP in. Totally gross but that’s how they do it over there!

  13. Gone With The Wendell says:

    Dear Environment,

    Just wanted you to know how much I treasure you. Bless your heart.

    Grannie

  14. JohnB says:

    Treasure an environment. Not necessarily this one.

  15. I'm the chief says:

    i keep my head to the door, crouch down, and hope no one will slap my face with the door

  16. Diane says:

    have i spent too much time on the Engrish page… this one actually makes sense to me. I’m afraid. I’m very afraid.

    • JohnB says:

      You will know it is time to go, grasshopper, when Mr. J makes sense to you. Until then, stick around and loll with the lolz.
