What does that wire on the right hand side do or should I ask?

see that plastic bit at the back with a small indent? a rod comes out and sprays your hoop. the control panel controls, temperature of the water and the pressure. when your knot is crystal clean, you then administer the blow dry on your arsehole hair. Your pucker essentially gets groomed by a machine everytime you take a dump.

(World Cup 2002 in Niigata - we were going to the jacks in supermarkets, department stores, fastfood places just for a rest and the experience, looked into ordering one when I got back, pricey...stuck with the jacksroll. I'd nearly go back there for the experience.

Matt Holland, daisy cutter....great moment followed by my best dump experience ever, nearly blew my beans being honest.)

Loving the internationalist vibe to this evening's posts. A lot of knowledgeable folk on here. A+ research.

Lads, does anyone still say gick?

I’ve heard it used for “crap” on one’s shoe and it’s also the “unofficial” nickname of a south Dublin school in the D6/6W area.

Now, “gicker” would have a very different meaning altogether but haven’t heard that one in a good while. It’s all “goother” this and “gowl” that these days.

I presume the blow dryer has heat settings

I'd be very anxious about a toliet having so many moving parts. You'd have wet rods covered in another man's chite strafing your buthole, and then the last fella's pubes blown up into your gaping wound by the hairdryer.

The Japanese are funny when it comes to facilities - most of them are cutting edge, and obviously have come about as a result of deep thinking by some of the finest minds in their engineering and ergonomics industries. But then you rock up to a rural train station and are met with a spartan and depressing squat facility. Strange country.

I was in Nara last year, and decided I'd have a feed of deep fried octopus from their equivalent of a chipper. The food is outstanding over there, but the octopus and 10 pints of lager was a bad combination, and I knew that the next morning as I found myself urgently trying to find a shítter. Marched into a small bus station, and all they had was squats. Had to squat extremely low down as I knew this was going to be a 'blowout' situation and I didn't want 'shrapnel' gathering on the back of my hiking shoes. God love the poor auld fella who looked like Mr. Miyagi who was waiting to use it after me. Really crop dusted that one.

Moving parts and whirring cogs could spell disaster for the man with a more “hirsute” cleft.

Fair point, but you have to factor in the jappers culture and respect for one another. It wouldn't last a week here, no decent free service does. There'd be lads bending the rod up giving self administered enemas, sticking their own tag nuts into the chute to fire up the next lads hoop. This would all happen before they get ripped off and you see "used jap jacks control panel and rod - bargain" on Adverts.ie

We're horrible c*nts.

Has there ever been a finer piece of engineering than this?



I. S. Brunel rightly gets the plaudits as the finest engineer of the Victorian era. Thomas Crapper has to be up there though with the pull chain toilet. It's a piece of practical design and engineering that still remains the gold standard in shítter 'philosophy'. A man whose legacy will live throughout the ages.

I'd say a 20litre flush there and head of water from the cistern up high gave a great flush . There would be no need to hang around to give a second flush with those beauts . They would push a sod of turf far into the atlantic first time

With a drop like that the nutpurse would get a sluicing, one would suspect?

Lad I knew had a...well .. well filled freeswinging ballsack used to take those clear plastic bags you see in the veg dept of JCs and encase the cluster in one of them before going onto the thunderbox.

Kept the tackle dry as a witches tit, so he said.

Looks kind of ‘naked’ though, a few grip bars would be handy if shunting out a reluctant chod.

Would be hard to get good compression I would suggest.

That takes me right back to primary school, and memories of flushing away my ham sandwiches (I was an early opponent of pig farming), marietta biscuits (we were very poor), teachers' letters, other boys' pogs, and (once) an absolutely ruined pair of underpants (no explanation required).

Never once did she waver. Never once did she fail me.

Outstanding work Pintman. You have raised the bar in a thread packed with Sergey Bubkas.

All I can do is stand and applaud.

Lots of emotion in this post. Have you ever considered visiting Coole Park? There's a tree there where poet and writer sorts used to mince around. Top class dunny just off the tea rooms as well.

Google must be tracking my contributions in this thread, the following video popped up in my YouTube feed. Did I watch all 59 minutes of it? You're damn right I did.

Have it on good authority that after dropping a hefty load of brown sausage meat on to the shelf, most Germans stoop down bending from the hips and get right in there. Nostrils mere inches from the fecal stack and inhale deeply. Why is another question. Something deeply ingrained in the German psyche. Likely sexual.

Explains why she is so obsessed ..

I grew up in a house with a pull chain toilet, an engineering marvel and work of lavatorial art it was.

Massive cast iron tank near the top of the wall, with an inscription in big raised letters

THE "HAMMOND"

 HAMMOND LANE FOUNDRY

     - DUBLIN -

Well any artist signs his work, does he not?

A handle of black bakelite with just the right heft to it. A chain of generous length and ample tensile strength to anchor a small tugboat. A massive iron lever on the top of the tank which raised and lowered the cast iron "bell" which did the actual flushing. No diaphragms or washers or any of that wimpy shyte to go wrong which modern toilets have, this was a toilet firmly in the Victorian tradition. A bog for the ages.

Problem was, any visitors couldn't flush the damn thing. It had a rhythm of its own which had to be respected. A half-hearted wimpy pull would produce nothing but a half a cupful to mock your efforts. An excessively speedy and vigorous attempt would bang the bell up and down too fast for the syphonic action to begin, producing maybe a half pint. Many's the time we heard the visitor repeatedly pulling the chain in desperation, sometimes advice was offered through the closed toilet door, sometimes we even had to intervene to get the job done.

The technique was a firm, but not excessively hard, pull
A vital pause, of 200 to perhaps 250 milliseconds at the end of the downstroke, to allow the syphon to 'prime'
Then a controlled return of the chain to the rest position, simply letting go did not produce optimum results.

A technique once learned, never forgotten and this thing could flush out an entire Russian spy ring in one go. Even my dad's Guinness shytes could not defeat it.

Over the decades it proudly took on sole responsibility for disposal of the waste products of not one, but two successive families in that one-pot household, from the first post-potty efforts to adulthood to... well I was going to say grandchildren's visits, but having grown up with modern lesser shytters they could never master the technique.

It soldiered on in its uncomplaining fashion, always getting the job done, until after over forty years and many arses and untold thousands of flush actions each resulting in the heavy cast iron bell impacting the bottom of the tank, the latter started to wear thin to the point where replacement was deemed necessary.

We got a modern toilet. It was never the same.

The tank alas probably ended up in a skip, even then it would have had considerable (s)crap value, they're collectors items today.

The "HAMMOND". Once known, never forgotten.

These toilets were NOT intended to be flushed while in the sitting position.

Why would you want to, anyway? You could chuck in as many arts degrees as you liked, no need for an interim flush like so many inadequate 'water saving' (but not when you have to flush it a zillion times) crappers.

Would you believe the Germans have a word especially for that? Bremsspuren. It roughly translates as 'skid marks left from the lay and display toilet'.



And here is a Continental attempting to explain the etiquette around using them. Weirdos.

Flushing twice, not very green now is it. I'm surprised the EU haven't banned them. An affront to a comfortable Sunday morning sh*te.

I've had a stomach bug the last 2 days and I've been producing nothing but brown water since though im thankful to report that the consistency has improved to something resembling an aero youghurt this morning

The youghurt or the mousse?

I still can't get my head around this shelf craic.

Any bog that requires you to lay down sheets of toilet paper first is an abumination.
