Is it just mine or don't they make toilets that flush properly these days ? I think they make them to conserve water, but it doesn't work 'cos you end up having to flush 5 or 6 times to get rid of last nights lager and curry !
My toilets fine, got a massive cistern on it, can deal with anything you chuck at it.:D

Having travelled a little, I can honestly say our toilets are a little 'agrigultural'! My favourites include the German model where your turds sit on a shelf above the water to allow close inspection, an American model that created a little whirlpool to suck the waste down, and an American public loo with a push button seat cleaner. I called my mates when I saw it and about 5 of us where crammed into the cubical putting it through its paces!
Ok, so I'm sad...

You want toilet extemes, go to Japan.
Surely my worst fecal experience, squating over a hole in a toilet block on the edge of Kobe park.
Go into a posh home and it's computer assisted defacation all the way! Ladies toilets in offices even have a button which simulates the sound of flushing as it's considered rude for others to hear the sound of your brown torpedo hitting the water.
:D

Frances hole in the ground is truely primative, much like the country in general.

I think they deserve a whole lot worse than it would be possible to give them
The brilliant government of this country, some years ago, decided to conserve water so they issued an edict that new cisterns must be capable only of flushes which were X percent less than the existing standard. - Therefore less wter used per flush.
Being entirely stupid people (all governments, not just this one) didn't realise that a heavy visit to the loo would not be washed away with one flush requiring people to flush multiple times, thus using MORE water than they did before.
That's why!

I remember being at this party, and they'd had a new bathroom fitted out... the toilet had two buttons on it (i was told they were 'number 1' and 'number 2' - work out what was what)
number 1 did a small flush, number 2 did a big flush.
Clever, eh?

Low-level flush.
Our cistern at home has this - and it's nearly 20 years old. Push the lever down and let go, you get a small flush. Hold the lever down and you get the full monty "king-kong turd" flush. If you need a second flush, there's something wrong with you, or you just gave birth.
The cistern can also be adjusted to give either a small flush all the time or a full flush all the time, by putting little plugs into the side of the syphon inside the cistern.
Shires make good bogs :)

I still like this one best :D lol
Been to Japan a few times and had the same experience as Adam. Also in one hotel experienced the ultimate gadget loo. Had a heated seat, triggered by pressure pads. Also had a 4 button panel, buttons 1 and 2 were for small and big flush. Button 3 was to squirt warm water at your butt and button 4 to squirt cold water at you butt. Gotta tell you, spent more time in the bathroom playing with that than I did in the bars drinking :D

Theres a new toilet coming out soon, that u can adjust the height of! Say you're a 6ft man, and just need to release some fluid.... the bowl raises up to the right height to minimise splashing outside it. Then in comes your 8 year old kid, and it can be lowered right down low for them, so they can actually sit on it with their feet touching the floor so they don't almost fall down it!
One of my mates has a 'waste shredder' in his toilet; when you flush this big spinning set of blades liquidises whatever you put down there. Courtesy flushes half way thru scare the cr*p out of you (no pun intended :D) !!!
You havent lived untill your sitting on an outdoor toilet seat in arizona when you hear the boss shout "Dont let your balls swing foward when you get up!"..........."The scorpions and black widows nest under there!"

I'm sorry but there's just something wrong with a toilet with blades in it, I mean, what if it hangs down there and get's caught?
I have to ask, how far down were the blades, I've never heard of anything like it eXistenZ?
