    Have you seen this thing? WOW!



    Public Toilet
    Not that I’m a bit vain, BUT I think I would suffer from performance anxiety!
    This is VERY strange!!!
    Here's a picture of a public toilet in HOUSTON..Scroll down...
    Now that you have seen the outside view of the Toilet, Just spend another moment scrolling down to see how it looks from inside..!!

    That's made entirely out of one-way glass.
    No one can see you in there, but when you are inside,
    it looks like you're sitting in a clear glass box.

    I don't give a flip if it is one way glass. I still wouldn't use that thing.







    BTW, where is it located???

    Especially since there is a big camera peering down at the toilet to show what it looks like from the inside.

    I think the public exhibitionists will like this toilet. At least they can get a kick out of imagining that people can see them from outside too.

    That toilet would be all right, if only it wasn't continually occupied by FBI agents, Mafia hitmen, papparazzi and stalkers.

    I actually don't know where it's at. My dad sent me those pics, but I haven't got an answer out of him yet.

    I was asking if yall have seen it, because he told me to look at it when I go to Houston this weekend. Can't wait till saturday.

    I think that's Switzerland, not Houston.

    They have these kind of things all over europe...when i was in Amsterdam they had them out in public areas but not quite like that. I noticed most of them were all in public areas where there were outdoor shopping centers or bars and parks...

    Here are some pics..i thought they were amusing so i got my cousins to pretend to use them for laughs.

    Guess it's a lot better than having people piss all over the place.

    They are linked to the piping in the ground so it's like a normal toilet they don't have to drain it or anything.

    For some reason, when I look at that European public toilet there, I get an image of some HR Giger-esque, jagged toothed worm/snake creature darting out and devouring my extra special secret no-no place. No thanks. I'll hold it.

    Add a showerhead and some of our posters may have a few problems.

    I'd pee in that one way glass one, no problem. Just to learn the layout though, so that whenever I passed it, I could walk up to the glass, first so that a person standing and peeing could see me, then the other side for a person sitting down. At each side, I would point at the glass as if I could see the person in there and freak them out.

    When somebody goes in that toilet, just stand outside and start staring at them. Get your friends involved and you all can start pointing and snickering. I'm sure you could freak out a couple of insecure tourists...

    Here's a year-old article on it: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4326340/. I suppose it's possible that the toilet is now touring.

    Anyway, it sounds like the perfect bathroom for drapg.

    It's like the urinal trough (sp?) at Aquarium.

    Exactly. Me neither. Besides, people are probably always coming up to it and using it as a mirror to check their hair, etc. Could be kind of unnerving.

    Anyone ever had the fun of using one of those stalls with no door... like in the backcountry? I remember one on a trail in the Grand Canyon that had only three walls. The other was just open. You get to stare across the canyon... hoping no one is over there with binoculars and that the North Rim is closed this time of year.
