I'm actually serious, which button is the right one? Why are there two?

Also should a Pic of a toilet be considered NSFW?

Seriously had to make a post to figure this out?

A man needs to know how to flush after a good log.

Sure, sure, I can respect that.

But when did "trial and error" go out the window for humanity in favour of "I should post about this"?

Fair's fair, that's honest and I believe you. I would probably also find some toilets somewhere in the world slightly amusing due to what I'm personally accustomed to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I’ve seen those at people’s houses, but it’s inappropriate to sit there and play with their toilet. I press whichever button I hit first and if it works, I go about my business.

…. Having no idea whether it was correct

I never knew I would stumble upon these wise words on such a difficult night

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I hope my wisdom has made your night just a little better.

One of the buttons might have been the "evacuate bowl onto floor" option. Aren't all toilets like this? Flushing was a fun adrenaline-fueled adventure the first time before I knew which button was which.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I read that as "evacuate bowel onto floor" and I was confused as to what sort of technology can achieve that sort of an effect.

Yeah I pretty much only see these nowadays. In my youth it was more common for there to be a knob you had to lift.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There is this other line of thinking. Most frequently used should be more easily accessible hence bigger. That is what is causing confusion here.

I say we should call this Game Cube controller's logic.
