It was happening on the NYC subway some years back, people were poking people with syringes contaminated with HIV

The.. year of...?!

Austria lol. Mozart, not kangaroos.

Which will still get passed down to the consumer.

You're talking out of your ass. Trans folk, and gender reassignment, have been a thing for decades. It's only recently become a social topic in the wider push for inclusive LGQT+ rights and has been gained mainstream attention, which has conservative undies in a twist. It just used to be that trans people kept themselves to themselves out of fear of social rejection, which is what the wider push has been about.

Uh, that varies wildly state to state and person to person here in the US. California even has division among acceptance, there are significant portions of people on LA and SF who'd love to see all these things repealed. Social media is a helluva drug.

What's this about 4chan imploding?

Apparently, because that miniscule amount of wee that *might* get on the inside of one's shorts is that nastiest, worse than the poo particles that get trapped in the same region when someone farts.

Um, that's why guys shake it a bit before stowing it, hence the "if you shake it more than three times you're playing with it." I can honestly say I don't dribble all over my undies cause I make sure it's empty, kinda like a fuel pump nozzle. And any guy with half a brainstem has figured out how to find the right angle to not back spray themselves (hint: most urinal manufacturers put a small graphic low in the bowl as a kind of target to minimize back spray, knowing guys like to aim their stream at things).

Good luck getting guys to sit on the toilet to pee. Aside from it being a faux pas for whatever stupid reason, it's generally a waste of time when we can walk up to either a urinal or toilet, unzip and whiz, zip up, wash, and go. Most guys have managed to make it an efficient and clean process for a very long time and that isn't going to change anytime soon. Sorry, but this is pretty silly.

Why exactly are wall potties disgusting? If anything it helps prevent lazy douchebags from pissing all over the toilet seats.

Not necessarily, but in my experience with my friends' kids, the ones that are the most maladjusted are the ones with their faces buried in their phones all the time, and these are the same kids that were raised on iPads and YouTube all day. It's one thing to have an hour or two of screen time in a day, but the parents that don't limit it have the kids with the most behavioral problems.

Behavioral issues start at home.

Schools now lose funding when kids don't pass, so admins press teachers to move them along.

Yeah but the masses now think he's at some all inclusive resort, and that's how this gets blown to the wind.

Bingo. Here in my area of CA, all project go through plan check, and larger commercial projects that will be utilized by the public are given even more attention. Engineers are not immune from doing stupid shit and running bad calculations, and ultimately it falls on the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) or whatever their local variant is that approved it.

All the way up, remember that Trump is their lackey

This whole "too big to fail" schtick really needs to go the way of the dodo. I understand the implications in terms of jobs and whatnot, but the fact that some of these firms have gotten so big that they'll fracture economies is flat out irresponsible.

Same thing in the US with college campus protestors. It's not about defending the Jewish faith from hatred, it's about silencing dissent.

But then they can't use the broad banner of antisemitism to silence anyone that gets on their nerves. Anti-genocide would just be logical, can't have that.

So are a significant number of politicians around the world, yet we keep electing them
