Serious Infestation

Instapundit links to an article that calls the automatic flush toilet “THE CRAPPIEST INVENTION EVER”

Now anyone like me who has ever had to clean toilets for a living understands why those providing toilets to the general public would be eager to embrace this new technology but I must say I don’t think it is ready for primetime. By coincidence this weekend I found myself trapped by natures call atop an automated toilet that would flush each time I moved in the slightest. I found it more than a little disturbing to be perched in such a vulnerable position above a device that had developed a mind of its own.

Nevertheless, I must disagree with the idea that the automatic flush toilet is the crappiest invention ever. I say the LOW-FLUSH automatic toilet is the most craptacular.

UPDATE: Thanks for all the suggestions in the comments. I will forward them to the architects.

UPDATE 2: The revised plan is up.

Disturbing development: Jim goes metro.

I’m not sure what to make of this.
