hey kodo

I must be having one helluva blonde moment right now, then!! If they don't flush differently, then why was flushing an American toilet hilarious? lol OY!! Maybe I just need to go to sleep!! lol

I knew Austrailian ones went the other direction... As well as drains and all that. Proud of me!!

 

LOL...it can change across the US actually, but here in Oregon, you (wow, I can't believe I am describing this on the www) hold down the flush until all the "contents" have been flushed away, then release the handle. In the UK you would just push the handle down and immediately release it, and it would flush them all away without the need to hold the handle down for any longer. Automiatic flushes in public restrooms are a US thing. So are movement sensitive ones. Scared the cr@p out of me the first time...lol....at least I was in the right place for that, right! lol

Hope that satisfies your curiosity

 

Well.... In MI, here, I've ran across toilets where you've had to hold the handle down til it's all gone.... But mostly ones where you push the handle and release and that's it... So I guess I'm a lil confused still!! lol Sorry!!! And yea, the movement sensitive ones... SCARY!!!!!! My son had to go potty and we ran across one of those and he was disappointed that he didn't get to flush it!! lol But there ARE lil' buttons on 'em that you can push that WILL let you manually flush them!!

Boy... I must have drank a bit too much as I'm discussing bathroom habits and toilets tonight! lol

 

my god, what have I done..

 

Now you're gonna be a party POOPer and close it, right?

 

Ha!, ha! I remember those automatic flushing loos in some posh restaurant in L.A. Sceered the bejeebers out of me too. I thought the can was haunted, or there was someone in there, in the next stall, playing mind-games with me, or something, flushing at the critical moment, just to irritate me.

Took me a while to figure out it wasn't the ghost of Mr.Hanky after all. I think I had WAAAY too much Tequila that night!

 

ahh..no.. I just can't believe a post like that could generate so much discussion about crap..

oh well.. no more poop stories from the shoe!

 

Well crap does tend to happen, ya know!

 

Like dog s**t on the shoe of life, so goes this thread. (Wait 'til Abby sees this thread Kodo!)

 

I have always wondered how do you flush a japanese toilet?
