Pooping in Japan: August

in travel •  7 years ago 

As a veteran curmudgeon whose travels have accorded me the ability to grasp the diversity of toilet options, from the Alaskan wilderness (much akin to Mongolia, I note), to the alarm at the first look at a Turkish facility, with little foot-pedestals, rising up rebelliously from a meter-wide pan, bestride an Stygian aperture, to confusion at the apparent twin devotionals of Parisian toilet/bidet pairs, and as a life long American, ugly as accused, I must concur.

Indeed, IMHO, the toilet may be the ONLY creative outlet suitable for most of my peers. Is it significant that perhaps the best writing I have seen on Steemit was created on Japanese toilets?

Yes. I have to believe the creative productivity exemplified here is but(t) serendipitous.

I am glad to see this months product was concomitantly rewarded, contrasting starkly with last month's similarly prodigious excretion. I confess I will wait with appropriately bated breath (and air freshener spray in hand) the revelation of the mysterious purpose of the cryptic button.

ありがとう!

I only wish your own comment here would be appropriately rewarded, as it truly was a sup(poo)rb read. I believe the correlation you noticed between toilets and quality writing is significant; in fact, perhaps a platform called "Steemit" is subliminally calling on us to make something of our previously underutilized bowel movements.

A friend actually offered a translation of said button: "test." Now what it's testing is still anybody's guess. The mystery continues...

You might note I use the term 'Steemers' to refer to users of Steemit. =p

As to the test button, at least Japan isn't part of the 5 Eyes alliance, or you could be sure what it was testing. Free UA's for everyone!
