Asian Innovation

The following experience was submitted by a world traveler and faithful reader. She came upon this restroom while at an airport in Japan. Thanks, Maureen!

Helpful visual aid portraying the abilities of the toilet:



Interactive arm rest with a delightful selection of high-tech novelties:





"The overall experience of this restroom in Japan was quite lovely for an industrial high-traffic area. Not only does the toilet do its job, but it creates a spa-like experience with heated seat, cleansing options, and an opportunity to use an electronic flushing sound if needed. I would recommend using any bathroom with these signs, even if you don't need to go..."

I don't know about you, but the "Electronic Flushing Sound" feature sounds incredibly useful for masking unsavory flatulence. Well done, Japan! I knew all of the brilliant engineers populating you were bound to create some real magic.

Lucy's Pick: Mellow Mushroom - Denver, CO

I'd like to share with you one of my favorite abodes in Denver. The Mellow Mushroom (located on the 16th Street Mall at Lawrence) provides immaculate and futuristic accommodations for when the mood strikes.

I was recently there with a couple friends for some late-night pickle vodka shots (seriously, not as bad as it sounds). The overall ambiance is a little trippy, maybe a tad too Jerry Garcia for my taste. However, as soon as that pickle vodka and goat cheese pepperoni pizza goes through your gut, you're going to be looking for a place to void.

The latrines are encased in a metallic room which shines with sanitation. I was initially impressed with the cleanliness and emptiness of the restroom, but then again, I was there on a Tuesday night when there weren't more than three female patrons to begin with. However, the scarcity of fellow pee-ers was maybe what appealed to me the most. Minimal echo, copious TP, and (the best part of all!) a Dyson AirBlade hand dryer made for one helluva latrine. I WISH I'd had to go #2 - what a treat that would have been!!

Let me introduce myself...

Hello! My name is Lucy, the newest contributor to the Poop Spot. I'm very happy to be here.

My qualifications are vast, as I regularly use public bathrooms and seriously enjoy a clean, well-lit vestibule with quality 2+ ply paper and a good amount of privacy. This last sentiment is very personal to me, as I suffer from paruresis (or shy bladder, to the layperson). I've been affected by this terrible illness since my high school years, and no amount of plugging my ears or humming to myself ever seems to help. My favorite commodes are surrounded by floor-to-ceiling walls with limited echo and maximum anonymity.

Another reason why I love a good bathroom is that I believe I've experienced some of the worst toilets in the world - southeast Asian toilets. I spent a year teaching and traveling around China, Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. And let me tell ya, now I can pop a squat ANYWHERE, given that it's quiet and I'm completely alone. Now, the "Western toilet" (Asians say with a sneer) has never looked better to me. I am looking forward to having an outlet to judge them regularly! (See, my toilet humor has already started.)

I Will, Thank You!

I would like to take a moment to thank my father for sharing this incredible bathroom find, discovered at Billy and Madeline's Red Room in Parsippany, New Jersey.









Enjoy Your Blow Job, indeed.
