Lavatories

One of the most annoying this ever are those toilets that use motion sensing to flush themselves. There are such toilets at this mall in downtown Portland. The sensor is kinda aimed at the back of your head when you're sitting down. So when it detects significant motion, it assumes you're getting up, and therefore flushes. Seems really wasteful, impractical, and annoying to the user. Apparently they're too motion senstive, they flush as one sits down, they flush every time you move your head even slightly. So one has to pretty much has to be as still as a rock to keep from flushing the toilet like 15 times in a sitting.

The ones I have used of that sort have always been the opposite.

i haven't seen any special toilets, other than metal ones that detect body heat and flushes when it feels body heat has left the seat.

I thought it was sort of ironic that the one I used had a button to flush manually in case ya couldn't get to flush with the motion sensor.

a restauarant i went to once had the flush button built into the floor so you could step on it with your shoe... to avoid germs i suppose.

my favorite toilets are those chrome ones, where you press a button and the bottom of the toilet opens up and there's this huge *WHOOSH-SUCK-SPLAR!* sound and everything gets sucked down.

My favourite toilets are the kind that work.

If I were the sort of person who drooles over things, I would be.
