context: Sitzpinkler (German, noun): someone who sits while urinating.
Don't get me started on the ones in the US and the Philippines, where they're filled up like a teacup with toilet water so that you can accidentally dip the tip while trying to relax. And the Dutch ones with the inspection shelf? No thanks.
The inspection shelf protects you from Poseidon's moist kiss
There are few “plateau plee” design toilets left. I actually like them, I find the deep sea bombing ones very unpleasant.
The "inspection shelf" rocks. Put down some sheets of toilet paper and go to town. Flushes down without any marks and no wet butt!
stop promoting paper waste and increasing the effort to treat the water
Not sure if /s or not lol
I like the inspection shelf.
It's like marking your territory for the next user
New toilet brush every other month? It'd be doing half the work of the toilet
You need more fiber in your diet.
That's what the inspection shelf is for, now you know.
I'm an inspection shelf hater myself, but that was a great comeback
Women learn to pee on public toilets without sitting on them as kids. Just ask any woman for tips on how to achieve this.
You can use side walls to also brace yourself up.
There are techniques for every situation.
For a second I thought "Sitzpinkler" is one of the words from German they use in English because there is no synonym for, like kindergarten etc.
We could start to establish it as one...
Sure why not. But maybe shortened: sitpinkler or sitpinklar, easier to speak. Funny enough "sit" and "sitz" is the same and "pink" vs. "pinkel" not.
I don't always sit, but sometimes you just need a little rest ya know?
Another tourist trying to sit in the urinal?
Do you even squat?
One less thing to clean and repair, I suppose.
I too am a sitzpinkler, but not in public restrooms. I just use the urinal.
