with a sit-down-only requirement Fine. As I've said before, as long as there's a "No Hovering" order for women as well.

...phasing out urinals in its ship heads for two reasons
I find those two reasons hard to believe as justifications.
Clever gas station owner though.

The Red Guard would’ve laughed themselves senseless if someone had proposed this at one of their debate sessions.
Then they probably would’ve beaten the hell out of them.

Yes, the Norwegian-Icelandic-(Irish) element at this home stands uncowed by the Swedes. And historically it always has been so.

Here is the money quote: “Party speakers cited medical research they said shows men empty their bladders more efficiently while seated. Improved bladder evacuation reduces the risk for prostate problems,”
Ah, the joys of government run health care. It gives you a built in excuse to control every aspect of individual lives.

LOL. No offense, but I still submit the theory is correct - frankly IMHO a good #2 is great no matter where it is taken.
Of course some are more memorable than others ;)

I see this as a European problem; as in “Jack you ought to check your aim European on your shoes”.

You’re probably right. There are not many of us old country gals left.

I have a friend that went to China to open a new corporate office. Well, after the office opened and they were increasing staff, the could not figure out why the toilets were always such a mess. Eventually, they found out that the folks that they hired were from very rural areas and usually squatted over holes, so they would stand on the toilet and squat. Just like in your picture.
They had to hold an “official corporate trianing event” to demonstrate the proper use of the toilet! Every time I see that pic you posted it puts the vision in my head of my friend trying to teach other adults how to use a toilet!
