huh?

Yes - it would be very helpful to have an automatic LED system that could flag up a number of issues such as:

  • This one's out of bogroll and/or has less than three sheets adhering to the cardboard inner
  • Skidmark alert
  • Unknown object (possibly of human origin) floating in pan
  • Sanitary/mooncup disaster area inc. illegal packaging flush failure
  • Blocked, with approximately two and a half rolls of piss-soaked wadded up paper
  • Giant high-fibre turd stuck in u-bend. Avoid at all costs
  • Pebble-dashing/projectile vomiting residue
  • What the fuck is that?
  • Just don't. Walk away. Your eyeballs and olfactory system will thank you and you won't have to suffer flashbacks during lunch

It would also give cleaning staff an at-a-glance guide to what needs sorting, and if any protective clothing might be needed. A very good addition to one's enjoyment of public conveniences, I think.

TalkandTurnips- i like your suggestions! I always seem to go in the rather pongy ones when I am bursting for the loo!

Not to mention, some bastard's pissed on the loo seat again!

MissPenteuth · 10/10/2011 18:33

Can we have one that says "it wasn't me, it already smelled like that when I went in"?

Byeckerslike · 10/10/2011 18:35

Miss, definitely that one!

SuePurblybilt · 10/10/2011 18:36

And a 'why would you wipe it on the wall?'

TalcAndTurnips · 10/10/2011 18:54
  • No, apparently you can't flush a disposible nappy after all
  • Warning: Small Floating Pebble-Style Turds that refuse to flush - next occupant may hold you responsible
  • Possiblity of webcam installation; keep face covered at all times to avoid ending up on Crimewatch/Youtube
  • Evidence of recent sexual gymnastics - please use next cubicle
LadyClariceCannockMonty · 11/10/2011 12:25

Definitely want warmandwooly and MissPenteuth's suggestions! Grin

PissesGlitter · 11/10/2011 12:28

warmandwooly · 11/10/2011 17:21

Also a sign that says..i might lock properly i might not..beware..

TalcAndTurnips · 11/10/2011 17:36

Good one, warmandwooly - have we not all perfected that gentle push with one finger; bracing ourselves for the embarrassed back-slamming of the unlockable door?

I'd also like to be warned about:

  • Do not attempt to enter; feet braced on back of door for improved security and increased leverage for chronic constipation
  • No toilet brush within. Lay a pan-blocker and you're on your own
  • The Management will accept no responsibility for the safety/sexual satisfaction of any convenience user who decides to respond to a mobile telephone number advertising hand relief or any other service of a carnal nature

I so needed warning like this on Tuesday. Was sat waiting at Dr's and needed to a nervous wee and stepped into an almost solid wall of heave-inducing stench in cubicle.

BARF!!!!!!

cambridgeferret · 14/10/2011 20:06

How about one of these as mandatory in every toilet?

needanewname · 14/10/2011 20:11

How about 'think Glastonbury.....'

stubbornstains · 14/10/2011 20:25

What about "You will find using the bushes behind this building infinitely preferable to using this cubicle"?

LostInTheWoods · 14/10/2011 20:26

Another poo thread...

cambridgeferret · 14/10/2011 20:29

wasn't there a sketch on Not the nine o clock news where there were messages flashed up as the bloke took a crap in the airplane toilet?
