Just because she/he has a Masters does not make that person educated!We see everyday...teachers and others who have advanced degrees and are short a full stack!
Some people have street smarts, have common sense and others don't.

I just conducted a small experiment- I went into the bathroom here, and threw the entire contents of the huge tp roll into the toilet. (I feel justified as we have a few toilet terrorists here-tp in a toilet is mild compared to the horrors that have happened in that bathroom) anyway I left it and went back to my desk- I came back in 10 min later and guess what? The tp had mostly dissolved - it went down with one flush.

I never buy that BS about no throwing the tp into the toilet- why not just crap directly into the garbage can if your going to throw crap covered tp in there? Fugging gross! The toilet terrotists here (there is a million of these stories- just ask Mr. Pink) pee into those garbage cans...

I actually wrote an "At the chaebol" story about the toilet terrorists at my job. (didnt and wont post it here though) It started around 4 months ago and it has gotten progressively worse each month. It is so bad that (only on this floor though) there is a camera aimed at the mens bathroom door- yet acts of terrorism continue week after week.

All sorts of insane things have happened in there- it started when someone coated the entire bathroom (to include the ceiling) with fecal matter- the smell was insane and took a week to clear out. When that happened management said that they were going to DNA test the crap and have the toilet terrorist arrested and fined. When that (surprise!) did not happen the toilet terrorists took that as a "green light" to escellate their activities. I am surprised no one has been hurt yet.

Putting TP in the trash can....bad and unhealthy not to mention nasty!
It attracts flies and what not!


I beg to difer. Here in Mexico nobody except a few gringo expats that maybe think somebody wants to examine their cr@p flushes t.p. and I have to say it doesn't smell or attract flies. You strategically fold so the brown bits are inside and you have a plastic bag lining the bin and you empty the trash every couple of days.

Or maybe Korea food gives you smellier sh_ts than Mexican food, but I doubt that.

About 8 years ago I was in Thailand and when my mate bought a roll of toilet paper the shop keeper wanted to know what he wanted it for. If I remember correctly it was strictly rinse with water; the fancier public toilets had a hose to make the job easier.

Utter nonsense. It stinks like shit, son. Just flush it. In all likeliness as long as you're not using half a roll of paper, you're as likely to block it up with crap as with paper. Just make sure you have a plunger or a big bucket of water handy and you'll be fine. I lived in the Philippines for years and people always said "Don't flush the paper". Actually it was generally other politically correct foreigners mostly, anyhow I'd block it occasionally, but nothing pouring a big bucket of water down after it wouldn't solve.
