More bathroom thoughts - automated, my ass!

Heh, so I'm going to stay in the bathroom today. Don't worry, it should be a relatively clean one. =) Today's thought has to do with the infernal automated toilet flushers.

I hate those things. They never work properly. I sit down on one of those things, and the worst of them flushes like 10 times before I'm ready to get up.

Perhaps I'm too skinny. Perhaps I have some convoluted bathroom technique (ok, let's rule that out this second). Whatever it is, inevitably, the sensor thinks I'm not there and flushes. Just when I think it finally knows I'm there, *_flush_*.

It's not that I don't like a clean toilet. I mean who doesn't. But I've got some pride to uphold, and if _you_ were in the stall next to me and heard the toilet go off 10 times in 3 minutes, including like 3 consecutive flushes, you'd probably be thinking, "what's that wacko in the neighboring stall doing"? Well, let me just set the record straight now. Nothing! It's the stupid sensor! Grrrrrr.

But fear not, I now have a solution. And for any of you who suffer the same malady as I do, forever to be ignored by the automatic toilet flusher, here's how to set things right.

Just take a couple segments of toilet paper and drape it over the near-sighted sensor. Voila! The sensor can't be blind enough to miss that.

Please make sure you remove the drape before you leave. Heh.
