I'll go first: They NEED to start playing music in public bathrooms.

Maybe I'm way behind on the times, but now I'm curious if/when they ever stopped. 🤔

There are some songs that transport me right back to the restroom at Denny's whenever I hear them. And I'd be *very* surprised if they knocked off the ambient tunes in the facilities at Disney World (which can make for unintentional hilarity in some situations).

A hotdog is a sandwich, meat between two pieces of bread, we literally make sandwiches with hot dog buns so what different is it with a hotdog on it or sliced meat?

@CatLover41 Well, I dunno about *that*--sometimes, the Moons Over My Hammy was a little undercooked. And to put it bluntly, walking into Denny's after midnight was comparable to walking into the bar in Star Wars... 🖖🏻👽

(And I'm sure bands like Swing Out Sister and Toad The Wet Sprocket would be simply elated to know I associate their tunes with the restrooms.)

@GiuseppeK Still... it's better than listening to people going #2. Also how do you pronounce your username?

Unmentioned in this particular TEDTalk: Italian mothers notoriously wait nine months before naming a son "Giuseppe."

@CatLover41 Ah, now I understand your concerns. In some corners of the world, it's not so much a matter of hearing others going arrowhead chevron, but rather being the individual being heard doing so.

When I was blessed enough to study in Japan for a couple years, I learned (not that it was part of the official curriculum or anything) that the sheer number of certain people too shy to make such embarrassing sounds was dire enough as to create a national water crisis. How so? By a critical mass of restroom customers deliberately turning on the faucets of the sinks full blast before cloistering themselves into a stall to answer nature's call.

But modern problems call for modern solutions: standard issue Japanese toilets now feature a button that, when activated, will obligingly loudly make the sounds of flowing water in order to obscure the sounds for anyone standing just beyond the partition.

(Of course, for some foreign visitors, they may take that as "challenge accepted.")

So are we just putting random ideas that come to our head or is there a rhythm to this?

@GiuseppeK Maybe we should ALL start turning the faucets on full blast whenever we use the loo 🤔. If enough people did it, we might also get "running water" sound players. Yet another reason to move to Japan.

Well in that case. Wouldn’t it be ironic if someone ended up a little late to a class about time management?!😂🤣

My collection of shower thoughts:

Do you sweat in the shower
Why do we bake cookies but cook bacon
Why do feet smell and noses run
Is cereal a soup
If you drop soap on the floor, is the floor clean or the soap dirty
When you clean a vacuum cleaner, does that make you a vacuum cleaner?

I have way too much free time to think about these 😂

@harriet22 Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways?

How can a house burn up as it burns down?

Why are "fat chance" and "slim chance" essentially synonymous, but "wise man" and "wise guy" are opposites? 🤔

@guiseppeK

your shower is basically an oven that cooks you with steam, except instead of burning you, it cleans you.

Ever realise that humans cut down bird’s houses to make birdhouses

Air conditioning is just domesticated wind
