You drink from it.

No really, is it better squatting than sitting?

Those are breathing hole for Asian seals. People would stand still with a spear for hours to wait for them come up for air.

>>6418735
Purportedly it's more natural for your muscles and such.

But I'd still rather not act like a bear shitting in the woods. And besides, what, am I gonna get an ass cramp? Or maybe a prostate cramp?

You sit your arse on it.

>>6418742

actually, straining to shit in a sitting position supposedly makes you more likely to get hernias.

I'm more concerned about losing my balance and falling into a pile of my own shit, though.

I might like this better, i'm always afraid of my penis touching the toilet. Then again i've tried sitting in a squatting position like this and my balls drag on the carpet.

Maybe thats what that bar is for is so you can hold yourself up and dont dunk your junk.

I was stuck at the Narita airport last year for about an hour.

Holy shit, going to the bathroom has never been so much fun.

Each stall has a little stylized icon of what style the toilet is: sitting, squatting, or "toilets so high tech they shit for you."

There was no line for the squatting toilet, so I tried that one first. I somehow managed.

Next I tried the fancy bidet toilets. They have butt sensors so that they don't shoot water into not-ass and make a mess.

What's hilarious is that the button that says "WASH" or "SHOWER" in English is labeled "おしり" in Japanese.
おしり means butt.

Having lived in Asia for most of my life there are some distinct advantages and disadvantages to the Turkish toilet design.

First and foremost, it isn't very refined looking, it actually is better for your muscles but I still prefer conventional toilets.

Second, it smells since the waste matter is not submerged in water as with conventional toilets.

As for advantages, it is cheaper to buy, install and maintain, as opposed to regular toilets as well as being easier to clean.

Lastly, in small bathrooms it is useful because you can cover it up with a screen lid and the entire bathroom area becomes a shower.

I still have one of those in my house. Never used it. I'll try it out someday.

>>6418765
>the entire bathroom area becomes a shower

That is disgusting. Fucking Elevens.

That feel when you were raised with these and now squat on western style toilets.

>>6418778
The screen is there so you don't accidentally step in the toilet, also lets the toilet act as a drain.

Sure it might seem insanitary but considering that the shower practically cleans your bathroom for you, it is really quite convenient in my opinion.

>>6418784

This is how I have evacuate my bowels. Those things cannot fit into my lifestyle.

>>6418778
I hope you're not American, where every bathroom comes with a toilet and excretory and sanitary functions are both practically literally conflated in design and common parlance.

The Japanese actually like to keep their shitters and baths separate, if they can afford to. On the other hand, Americans pay top dollar to shit where they clean themselves. I never understood that after 19 years of living in this country.

>>6418816
Maybe if you kept your shitter clean, you wouldn't have to build an entirely different room to take a shower/bath in.

>>6418816
While I agree with you I couldn't help but mention that I absolutely find it really tremendously aggravating to have to go to the bathroom after using the toilet to wash my hands.

>>6418816
what the fuck are you saying?

>>6418816
Exactly what I was going to say. It must also be a pain when you want to take a shit but can't because someone is taking a shower there.

>>6418816
Or maybe, I don't know, western world works fine with toilets and showers in the same room. It is not like the lifespan of a boy living in a western country is 45% shorter than the japanese boy because of the bathroom.

>>6418835
>>6418835
That's why most of the houses and apartments have two bathrooms? where do you live?

>>6418838
>western world

Protip : It's only like that in the USA.

>>6418843
westerners are all the same, anyway

>>6418843

Canada too. And England. And the majority of Europe that I've experienced.

>>6418843
Where are you from?

>>6418860
>And the majority of Europe that I've experienced.

Sure.

I shit on the floor. Not because I'm autistic but because my diet causes me to shit out a massive nugget like once every 1-2 weeks.

It feels REALLY good coming out

>>6418944
I should probably add that I need to break the shit up into individual pieces so it can be flushed down the toilet.

>>6418950
I know people who would pay good money for a shit that big

How does it work?

Tried the boss rush for it and got to floor 46, but killing the special bosses with callou is difficult.

According to the Japanese poopsquat is more likely to give you 'roids than sitting and toiletpaper is more likely to give you 'roids than getting a squirt to the butt.

Your parents should have enough grandchildren to satisfy them so you can continue being a self loathing pile of shit and contribute nothing to anything.

>>6418990

>toiletpaper is more likely to give you 'roids than getting a squirt to the butt

Stop trying to turn people gay

How does it work?

>>6418950

I can't stop laughing, good one anon.

How much time would you be looking at investing if you wanted to collect every iosys and innocent key album ever released? Yes suwako is a bad influence, the nymphet getting knocked up like that, one of Sanae's ancestors is a pedo. From every 1000 people that are ';vanned'; only 1 go to jail.

>>6418965

>>6418961
And what would this individual be planning on doing with my compacted stool? I am in no way questioning the legitimacy of your statement - I am however intrigued by the potential usefulness of my poop

>>6418944
What the fuck diet is this and how do I follow it?

>>6418965

When I was at Moscow University we had those toilets in the our dorms. Instead of there being a sort of 'handle' you push to flush, there is a knob on the top of the toilet that you pull. The trick in order to not make a mess is to lift the knob every once in a while and let the water take each turd away.

>>6419021
I can't believe that people so lacking in imagination as yourself still exist in this day and age. Why, the uses are endless, my boy! Not only for recreation, but for science as well!

>>6418965

What the fuck is this place there is no overview at the faq.

yeah who wouldn't want a monolithic shit nugget!

>>6419031
A diet of eating very little. I've always had a fairly delayed shitting schedule so it could just be me.

After we finished eating and started walking around, you couldn't help but notice that there were a lot of little girls there.

>>6418965

How do they work? Badly.

http://asecular.com/~scott/misc/toilet.htm

>>6419039
You're right.

I can paint with shit slush after submerging the turd in water to save money on conventional art supplies. I can also smear myself in a fresh log for bodily warmth. Fuck, I might as well eat my own shit to save money on food.

The first time I used a squat toilet, I was unprepared.

I squatted over the toilet, and being unused to the pressure it would put on my bowels, the shit shot out of me like rocket propellant. I thought I had just prolapsed, it hurt so bad. I stood up so fast, that I passed out.

I came to sitting diagonally on the metal fixture at the front of the toilet. My ass severely bruised, I tried to stand again. I passed out again.

I came to with my foot in my own turd, my face bashed against the wall.

I cleaned myself up as best I could, threw my socks away, and from then on, I avoided squat toilets where possible, and took it real slow if I had to use one.

I'm going back to Japan this January.

Hardest I've laughed all fucking week

What happens when drunk japanese people try to shit in those? Is there enough muscle memory for people used to them that falling over while shitting is about as rare as a drunk falling over on a sit-down toilet here, or are these decidedly very drunk unfriendly?

>>6418838
>>6418843

The main reason the toilet and method of cleaning yourself are segregated in some homes is because of the fact you can't use the shitter when someone's bathing, not some retarded cleanliness paranoia.

>>6419198
They probably grab that handle bar in front of them and prepare themselves for the ride of their lives!

>>6419204
Oh fuck that makes mountains of more sense. I've been in such shitty situations plenty of times.

This thread made my night, now I can't wait for the next time I get to plop one in the toilet.

I wonder if anyone's ever tried to squat on a western toilet and fell off in the process.

Imagine you had an cute Japanese exchange student in your house, and you hear a loud thump one day. You bust into the bathroom to find her lying face down after having fallen and smacked her head against the floor/sink/bathtub or whatever you have across from your toilet. She's vulnerable looking with her lower half exposed and pretty much face down/ass up, but naturally there's poop everywhere.

>>6419276
I... it's her fault for being so defenseless!

>>6419276

I did see an Indian kid fucking reverse cowboy one once, sat on it with his legs straddling the narrow part where the bowl attaches to the tank. People laughed at him, but I can see the logic now- squat facing it, sit facing it.

But really, someone would have to be pretty dense to not appreciate the fact that a western toilet is very much chair-like in its height, and not conducive to perching.

>>6418965
Oh god I hated those things when I lived in Europe, nothing worse than a hangover shit sitting out of that tiny dish of water stinking up the place.

It's a urinal for "the people who walk on walls". BEWARE THEY COME OUT ON RED MOONS.

Is this a common situation?

>>6420129
Only if you're so incontinent you can't shit without peeing.

>>6420129
Only if you're a toolbox that doesn't know how to squat.

>>6418735
Squatting, if only because you don't sit on a seat. Seats are fucking cold and honestly do you want to sit in a public toilet seat? With squat toilets you don't have to.

However squatting for too long can be rather painful, if you are constipated enjoy your leg cramps.

Normally I find /jp/ boring as hell but, this thread is incredible.

Did someone say Lillipad?
http://lillipad.co.nz/lillipad/Lillipad.html

Seriously, it's the natural position. The sit-up variety is rather recent invention.

This thread made my night, and the day to come.

>>6420202
We should strive to be as far away from the natural as possible.

>>6420202
Wouldn't you be kind of disturbed if you walked into someone's toilet and they had that contraption there?

>>6420302
Not as much disturbed as i would wonder what the hell it was for.

Why Japan?
You are one step from reaching the three seashells with your super toilets, but you still have hole on the ground toilets everywhere.

>>6420341
Because asian toilets are better for you to shit in.
No lie.

>Get off train at Akihabara station.
>Go to bathroom.
>Every euro style toilet stall taken.
>Go into Japanese style toilet stall.
>See shit splattered all over ground outside of toilet.
>Take a piss standing, and walk out.
>Feel filthy look for soap.
>No soap by sink. Nasty ass hand dryer thing.
>Look for somewhere to throw my fucking trash away.

FUuuuuuuuuuuu

Man what a fucking nightmare!

So /jp/ is getting spammed because of this thread??

>>6420505
No, /jp/ is getting spammed because one retard is mad at the janitor.

>>6420509
You mad ZUN?

>>6420509
So what you're saying is that toilets are, in fact, otaku culture?

I thought we were supposed to be floorshitting NEETs. What use do we have for toilets?

>>6420518
it's more that the spam really does nothing but create extra legwork for the janitor, so in the end that's the only reason to do it.

nobody really cares if /jp/ is spammed at this level, aside from it being a minor annoyance and something so seemingly pointless and such a waste of time that it's beyond understanding.
