Why would you want to do that? You'd probably end up getting raped in a Cape Town port-a-potty or wade through hepatitic diarrhea in Mumbai.

There are also nice bathrooms that need to be toured as well. And some unusual ones. There's a bar I occasionally go to that has six inch screens in front of the urinal that play soft core Appreciation while you urinate (no penetration).

He could interview people about different bathroom manners...institute a bathroom rating system (3 and a half cheeks)...visiting the best and the worst and the weirdest that the world has to offer...investigating the story behind every one.

Because if there is one thing we've learned from this thread, it's that every bathroom has a story to tell.

awesome job. did you stay late / early to do it?
could someone have walked in to see you hunched on the floor with the toilet rolls, bleeding and writing with merry abandon?

just walked in for my morning constitutional and there was some guy in the stall. He was standing and flushed and since he's tall he peered over the stall wall and we made eye contact. It was a little weird.

pB - it'd be kind of funny if you took out all of the rolls from each stall one day.

also, i'm going to start posting reviews of restaurant restrooms as I use them. I'll go for the full monty as well, not just urinals, and I'll post pictures where applicable and appropriate.



Le Bernardin has nice digs, but there is a major flaw. Their urinals are floor length, and at the bottom they put a bunch of ice down there. I don't know why, maybe because it's a cool effect, but naturally curious people like me are going to go "hey! I'm going to pee on that". But of course, jagged angles and full stream force means the pee will be directed everywhere and I got my own pee all over my trousers and shoes.
