This is weird now. Because in my office the toilet is very high. I am 6' 2" and just about on my tippy toes. Yet we still have that absurdly low urinal.

Morimoto stall. Tell me this doesn't look like a wonderful place to spend 25 minutes.


I also note that the vertical positioning of the toilet paper allows for a more natural movement when unrolling.

Also, lower toilets are better for a complete expulsion of fecal matter due to the angle of the colon.

Nah, that hip angle makes the plumbing all convoluted.

I've been told by reliable people (on the internet) that one should poop with the knees higher than the hips.

it really is most excellent. You walk in, the lid opens automatically, and then when you sit down, the seat is pre-warmed (and not from a fat guy).

There is a ramen place in my neighborhood that has a toilet like that (admittedly, the setting isn't as nice, but the toilet itself is five star). I've been meaning to work up a mean **** and then go there for dinner one night just to use it.

I spent a half hour or so with a fellow Styleforuvm member at the squash tournament at Grand Central a few weeks ago. I bring this up because one of the neat features was that the matches were in a class cube, so as a spectator you could see everything, but the way the glass was lit made the players feel like they were in a normal squash court with regular walls. They didn't see out. I am wondering if the rear wall of your Morimoto toilet stall is lit like that. Do you have an unknown audience? It would be very, very Japanese to watch somebody **** like that. Hell, if you connected your stall with Claghorns wall of soft Appreciation urinals, you might have a winner.

I have seen drawings of the place from the architect, and sadly, there is no room for an audience.

You mean the rectum. You expel feces from the rectum, not the colon.

Don't you be telling me what I mean and what I don't mean! Maybe I have a colostomy and am very sensitive about it.

But in this case, yes, yes I meant the rectum.
