A note on Japanese toilets. AKA. Sitting in the lap of luxury.

(This entry references doodie, if this offends your delicate sensibilities then you’re way too sensitive. A great philosopher once said “everybody poops.” I think it was Plato).
The Japanese have applied the same forward thinking they have to computers, video games, cell phones and vending machines to another beloved appliance. The toilet. Every seat is heated to your preference. Of course they all have bidets with streams that are fixed to your preference. And every toilet I had the pleasure of using had an automatic deoderizer. I don’t know how it works but no bathroom ever smelled like doodie or poopie, not even when you could hear the person in the stall next to you making some serious noise. Nothing. Japanese people are truly brilliant.
