Glue on public toilet seat...

[United]

just had to post this...quoted from Fox News website!

CAIRNS, Australia — A man who used a public toilet in a shopping mall was taken to a hospital to have the toilet seat removed from his backside after someone smeared it with glue in what an official condemned Monday as a sick joke.

Police urged possible witnesses to come forward after the 58-year-old man was humiliated in the northeastern city of Cairns by the prank.

An ambulance was called to help the man after he was found stuck by fast-acting adhesive glue to a toilet seat on Saturday in the busy shopping mall.

Paramedics removed the seat from the toilet and took him to a hospital, where medical staff used industrial solvents to get it off.

Cairns local government official Di Forsyth said the man, who was not identified, was not injured but was "extremely embarrassed" by his experience.

"I'm disgusted that a gentlemen has had to go through that because someone thinks it's funny," Forsyth said. "It's a sick joke."

Who sits down at a public restroom without looking to see, at least, if bodily wastes are smeared on the seat?

I don't think you can get herpes from a toilet seat but like what the above posters said, why wouldn't you check the seat before you sit on it?

I personally always felt that the plastic wrap on the rim was much funnier than the glue trick.

Actually, herpes from fecal matter is entirely possible. Of course you would need at least a skin abrasion and within a certain time, etc.., there are a lot of factors... but still. There are times when I think I wouldn't mind traditional asian style facilities in public venues. Everyone hovers. Then again there are times when it looks like someone exploded ...bleh.

How could you not use the common sense to check before you sit?? I always do and normally wipe it off first as well.

Do they sell Lysol wipes in a travel size/pocket size for pre-business seat wiping? Might not be a bad thing to keep around...

Why, yes they do!!!! Can't remember if it is "Lysol", but we have some antibacterial toilet wipes. I still hate using public toilets. I'd rather just pee outside! lol

I think I saw some crazy automated toilets online at some point that would take care of this problem. The toilet seat pivoted as an "arm" cleaned it.

And I found a video...haha.

YouTube - COOLEST TOILET EVER!!!!

My 9 year old son just watched that video, and asked the question" can you ride the seat?" That's just something that you don't ever expect to hear.

RachelMarie, you sound like a candidate for a potty Rachel Lucas wrote about:

So we left there and found one of those streetside public toilets we’d heard about when researching Paris. Do you know about these? My god. I should have taken a picture, but basically it’s a big gray-colored pod right on the sidewalk that cleans itself completely from the inside. You push a button and an electronic door slides open all pneumatically and cool-like, and you enter, and everything is utterly sterile and spotless. Do your business and then exit, and the thing shuts itself and literally sprays down its interior self from top to bottom – walls, floor, toilet, everything – before the next user enters.

The door handles in public restrooms are usually more hazardous to your health than the toilet seats.

BTW: If you think public restrooms are bad try using a porta-let on a construction site in July.

If you think squatting on a public toilet is nasty, you should remove one to pull 4 tampons from it!!!

Maybe he had a squirter!

but seriously though that really stinks! I dont think I could sit down without putting TP or something down first unless I was too drunk to hover!
