@paul_ipv6 @alice but this was also when I discovered Akihabara and all the amazing little stalls selling just one kind of thing.
Now you have to go to Shenzhen for that.
@petrillic @paul_ipv6 @alice Yeah, I remember that Akihabara, too. Hardly go there now that it's changed. Not really into maid cafes.

- boob wash
- water-park ride
- options menu
- multiplayer select- volume control
- channel selector
- smoking instructions?I tried the boob wash and was not disappointed, but it took me like two minutes to figure out the little square LED on the left was the off-button.
@alice World's least-conspicuous off button. Mine's got a big orange (?) button with a black square dot in the middle, under the legend 止.

@alice I guess they just gave up on the description translation. Here’s the original version.

I was at my in-laws' house and also could not find the off button, I was on the bidet like "shit, am I stuck here or do I stand up and have my back hosed down with bidet water?"

@eedly @alice having come late in life to appreciate the utility of an under-the-toilet-seat style of bidet, I can speak on the topic of water velocity with wisdom. With the under-seat variety at least, the water supply is the same as refills the toilet tank. It is commonly possible to adjust the pressure (which also adjusts how quickly the toilet tank refills). By this adjustment, one can calibrate a suitably forceful and yet not perilously forceful pressure for the "jet". A bidet will save a family many rolls of paper (albeit at the cost of having a set of individual "drying towels" added to the laundry duty).
@CadeJohnson @eedly @alice my toilet-seat bidet has heated seat and water, and a (very ineffective) dryer. Ahhh… tho sitting on something full of water that’s also plugged into the mains is a little unsettling.

We definitely shouldn't be considered any kind of expert on deciphering symbols
Nor would we seek to tell somebody else that their interpretation of signs is wrong.
If we told you what we see those as, it would tell you a lot about how our mind works
@SleepyCatten
Now I'm very curious
Mind telling me what see the symbols as, please? :3 -
@sandorspruit @Sassinake @alice
people would want to look at their poop for health reasons. so you poop on a shelf in the bowl for inspection
it's fading away, it's mostly historical and a curiousity nowadays in old houses. new builds in the netherlands don't have it. and it's not unique to the netherlands
@benroyce @sandorspruit @Sassinake @alice Decades ago, that was the standard in Poland. I don't know if people wanted it—it was just the standard.

@alice Thank you for turning this example of "universally-understandable iconography that averts language issues" into such a fun post!
@MySideIsHumanity
They should make an international bidet symbol set like the laundry symbols
