To be honest I cannot tell if this guy is joking.

    Gamer protip: if you see a car in public that has a “T” logo, that means it’s a toilet, and you’re allowed to shit and piss on it

    I hate javascript. I hate javascript. I hate javascript.

    Javascript and mobile apps will not fix structural issues in society.

    People who suggest otherwise should be conscripted to build public housing and throw eggs at nimbys at city council hearings.

    I think the reason the US doesn't have pay-toilets, unlike e.g. Europe, is that there was actually a concerted grassroots effort in the 70s to make bathrooms free.

    Oh, here we go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_to_End_Pay_Toilets_in_America

    Was not surprised to see a red fist in their emblem, haha.

      The vibe I'm getting is that this movement wanted public toilets to be free rather than paywalled. The Wikipedia article is shamefully vague IMO.

      Also because people have a tendency to wtf pwn those paid toilets, by either purposely breaking them or taking reality-breaking shits and pisses.

          That’s so crazy because I don’t remember facing this problem when I visited Portugal… this is just so baffling

          Or hop on a train. Ridiculous thing is that you need to pay to use toilets in train stations, but the toilets on the actual trains are free to use.

        Yea most in train stations and gas stations the toilets cost 1€ to enter, the gas station ones usually give you a ticket for the value that you can use to discount whatever you buy

            Probably because Europe consists of over 50 states/territories each with their own rules. Things in Portugal are completely different compared to The Netherlands. In Western Europe you can't go to a public toilet without having to pay but as you said over here in Portugal where I am currently at, I never had a problem so far.

    $10 to take a shit? you could go to a store, buy candy and take a shit in the store restroom.

      Yeah, many stores have a bathroom. The whole thing is that you're supposed to buy something in order to use it. How is this any better than that?

      Ah yes, I've solved the problem of you paying a store to use their bathroom by you paying me to use my bathroom. Oh, and in exchange, you don't get anything else, just the bathroom usage, unlike the store where you at least get a drink or something. It makes perfect business sense, for me.

      You poor summer child. Not only do you charge them for the bathroom, but you make a gangway labyrinth where all your rides exit. This labyrinth has an exit where you need to pay an exhorbitant fee to get out. The labyrinth's every corner is filled with cheap water, expensive food and just a couple toilets where you have to scan the deed to your house to use.

    Just do it the Western European way and piss somewhere around your beautiful central station so that the entire area smells like piss.

      Friendly reminder that London was literally known for having entire rivers of literal shit.

      I figure, that even if you know fucking nothing about science or germ theory or causality or common sense, that Europeans should have known that maybe shitting everywhere in public so much that it clogs up streets and prevents people from walking or infecting them with disease, should be a clue that something is horribly wrong and a system to remove it should be set up?

      Whiteoids always lie and slander and project that minorities are stupid or smell bad, but non-white people had used plumbing systems for literally thousands of years before Eurocrakkkers did.
