The toilets on the trans-siberian railway have flat foot... things in the front corners of the bowl, so you can lower the seat and sit, or lift it and squat.In some cultures sitting on the toilet is not the norm. Squatting is the done thing.

I’d take Nikolai Tesla to Europa Park and give him a few rides on Voltron. He’d love that (unless he got one of the dodgy cars).If you could bring anyone from the past to show them the wonders of the future in a non-history changing way, what would you do?
I'd start with an educated victorian chappie, so they can understand the concept of "technology" and not freak out about demons, aannndddd..... Take them to a rave.
Meh. Tone just blends in with the tinnitus for me.I think a nice blast of 1Khz tone would go well with the bars. Probably more useful and less annoying than TalkBack
Gilets are so middle class that they're standard issue for Waitrose staff. Allegedly very handy for people who need movement, and need to be active, but also stay warm at the same time. Also worn by those who snort lots and lots of cocaine, which isn't really an option if you have a beak.What is the point of a gilet?
My mother in law wants a gilet for Christmas. I had to look up what they are - at first i thought it was some sort of risque piece of lingerie that would be a really strange thing to buy one's mother in law.
But no, it's a sleeveless padded jacket. Question is: What is the point of a coat with no sleeves? If it's cold, you want the sleeves. If it's warm, surely you don't need a coat?
Cocaine.In my day, we called them "body warmers". For some reason at some point they got rebranded in French.
Double post, different topic, surely whip free.
BBC headline on the very early news this morning, around half five...
"Non breast feeders punished over cost of baby milk formula".
I am a non breast feeder, yet I don't feel punished in any way.
Should I feel shame or guilt here?
I'm puzzled.
