Automatically flushing toilets in public restrooms.
You have all seen them, they have a motion sensor that triggers the toilet to flush after you pass by it and leave after doing your business. The thought behind this lovely invention is because too many people are too lazy to flush after done, sad. Ever been screwed by this technology?
You are sitting there and once you are done doing what you came to do, you lift a cheek, reach down to wipe and BAM! The force of this toilet is so powerful I often wonder if they thought an elephant was going to use it? Maybe they wanted it to be able to suck a basketball down the tube or something? The "BAM" is the water flying at hurricane force and splashes your @$$. Well now you have to wipe again. BAM! it gets ya again. I then sit there thinking to myself "Is this the poor mans' bedet"? Next thought is how to outsmart this monster? Everytime I end up having to stand and dry off.
Damn this invention! Once again, more bad technology, this time built because of lazy people who find it too hard to turn around and use a foot to hit the lever to flush.
So then you go to wash your hands and they have those stupid motion sensor faucets. I understand that once again it is because too many people find it too hard to turn the faucet off when done and the motion sensor saves water since that is important these days, but damn! You have to waive your hands under it a bunch of times, tickle the thing in the bottom of the faucet and then maybe it will work or you move to the next one. Ahh, alast you find one that works, but then you reach up for soap and it turns off. Seriously? Who washes their hands that fast? So you screw around trying to get it to work again and once it does you get 4 scrubs and off again. You get the picture, probably have been there.
So a trip to the restroom that should've taken a couple minutes now took 10.
