I'm just gonna straddle it reverse cowgirl style

[–] SpongyAneurysm@feddit.org 1 points 12 hours ago

Butters style.

[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

Somewhere there is a sales deck estimating ROI for uncomfortable toilets.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Wouldn’t a couple of small blocks under the seat just fix this “problem”.

I mean I’m surprised they just don’t put those homeless spikes on the seat.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 2 points 18 hours ago

Guys, guys! Take it from an American: Don't be like us. This is some shit our employers would do.

I know our lifestyle looked fun and enviable once we grew up and left the kingdom to live on our own. And it's not all bad, but mistakes were made!

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 18 hours ago

I have an idea: I go to a forest, I don't care who's claiming it, and throw wooden spears at anyone who enters.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 21 hours ago

Don't hunch over? Stretch out! Legs and all! The easier angle will make it even better support.

[–] BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

I'd just start going to a restroom elsewhere with normal seats and take even longer breaks just to send them a message

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 39 points 1 day ago (1 children)

you gotta really question the mental wellness of someone who starts a company to produce a product that literally makes life worse for anyone that experiences it.

[–] kofe@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

I mean, I don't take longer than a couple minutes to take a shit, but it does make it worse for those with health issues or trying to get a break with no other options

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

The opinion of someone whose never had bowel problems and can't even fathom other people not being like them.

[–] kofe@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

Did you stop reading halfway through my one sentence...?

[–] chuymatt@startrek.website 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

GI issues would beg to differ… a good 10 min for bad flares to ensure I’m not back in a few minutes later.

This is not a fun break time.

[–] kofe@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Can you please re read my comment, particularly the second half of the sentence

[–] chuymatt@startrek.website 1 points 9 hours ago

I was making the concern more explicit and personal. Not to worry.

[–] Alloi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

bring a book and shove it under the lid to make it level, fuck em. i shit till my legs go numb.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Weeeeeeellll

I wouldn't mind going to the bathroom and not finding all stalls occupied for the next 45 minutes because everyone and their mother is taking a shit whilst watching all three Lord of the rings movies on one go

Edit: seriously? This is being down voted? I'm all for fuck corporate and such, but seriously, I want to be able to go to a bathroom and actually find an unused stall. It sucks that everything is occupied with people watching TV there.

[–] mostNONheinous@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

Take enough toilet paper off the roll to wipe, use the rest of the roll to prop up the seat.

Everybody walk the Dinosaur?

[–] bigbabybilly@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

This cracked me up way more than it should have.

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago

Upper decker coming right up.

[–] joel_feila@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I see a claas action law suit from arthritic workers

[–] Agatha@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Hus has Crohn's. That's covered by the ADA for now. Anyone with an IBD should join that lawsuit.

[–] Saledovil@sh.itjust.works 23 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I think I first saw this a decade ago.

Edit: And in that decade, not even a single post about those toilets being installed anywhere. Not one peep.

[–] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] BunScientist@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm not a toilet expert but I once heard of some person that did this and they broke the ceramic and kind of cut their legs, so maybe don't.

[–] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I think this is an urban legend that never happened since I've never found any evidence of it happening, but definitely be careful and don't make a mess.

Edit: there is a relevant Wikipedia article somehow: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet-related_injuries_and_deaths

Edit 2: Maybe it happened once (NSFW): https://www.nairaland.com/2549481/graphic-pic-woman-got-serious

[–] axEl7fB5@lemmy.cafe 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

who even thinks about writing an article page on wikipedia about toilet related injuries and deaths

[–] protogen420@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 20 hours ago

wikipedia editors

[–] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 157 points 2 days ago (9 children)

Gonna start selling 3d printed toilet wedges out my trunk that re-flatten the toilet seat.

I have a medical condition that makes it difficult for me to defecate, so doing so often takes 20m or more.

I usually doo on my own time (because, like, ethic or whatever), but even so, this seems actively hostile to me and I wonder if there's a legal remedy.

Waiting for the lawsuits from people developing nerve damage and/or thrombosis

[–] Kloayka@lemmynsfw.com 72 points 2 days ago

You don't even have to wait that long. This would play hell on people with any of a myriad of conditions. They would always have to have a regular one to accommodate the disabled or face the pain of being sued for discrimination by a disabled person, and everyone would then use that normal toilet, making the whole thing a process of burning dollars to chase pennies.

If I'm suffering from the green apple splatter, my legs will not give a shit about 13 degree angle.

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 47 points 2 days ago (8 children)

Just shit on the walls and the company will readjust again

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Don't be an animal, just shit in the trash can in the bosses office, like a civilized person.

But seriously, this sounds like a good way to get rich. Once you "accidentally" slip off the toilet and crack your head open, then you can sue for the big bucks.

This should be posted in latestagecapitalism and aboringdystopia

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 38 points 2 days ago

Go to take a shit after a few hours in a non-climate controlled warehouse so your sweaty butt cheeks just slide off the toilet and break your coccyx. Now you get worker's comp.

[–] UncleGrandPa@lemmy.world 41 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Time to start crapping on the floor....
