Sunday, January 13, 2013 5:25:17 PM I witnessed this first hand. I thought I was hallucinating when it kicked in automatically. Other than these, the airport is pretty much a bus station with security.

Sunday, January 13, 2013 2:16:38 PM But what they fail to mention is that the cover's just a small circle of plastic, with two black lines on it. It just fits the seat and the mechanism just keeps turning it round.....Muahhahaha!! |

I always bring my toilet seat from home. My ass is far too special to sit on the same seat as common slobs. |

Sunday, January 13, 2013 12:46:26 PM What? 2013 is the first time you've seen this? I wish they were all like this as some women (especially unspecified minorities) like to hover and spray like a cat. |

Sunday, January 13, 2013 10:58:04 AM Smagboy - the plastic is largely recyclable. And I can totally dig where you're coming from with just wiping the seat - it's what I generally do in this situation. The problem is we have had a massive increase of people who come from countries where squat toilets are the norm and a lot of those people (women especially - trust me I know) don't seem to want to use the toilet properly. They hover over the seat, and in some cases stand on it - I have entered stalls and found footprints on the seats. Then there's the other folks who will insist on not setting their naked arse on a seat where other naked arses have sat before them. It's completely stupid, yes, but the auto covers do eliminate a lot of the mess that used to happen in public restrooms. When we started using them, we noticed an immediate reduction in bathroom trash - especially on the floor - which some underpaid schmuck (me) used to have to clean up several times per shift. |

Sunday, January 13, 2013 10:22:57 AM Well, indisguise, for one thing, it's plastic. Yards and yards of it, whether the person would normally use a cover or not. But, I will admit that you taught me something. As a guy, when I go to sit down, I just get about six inches of TP and wipe the seat. That's it. Definitely don't cover it. It's a shame because it's not like there's tons of disease on those things. Oh well. |
