sub-standard


Bob found this on his own toilet. I wonder if there is a "standard" for toilet seats?

  1. "American Standard" used to be the name of a big toilet manufacturer. I wonder if this ""standard"" is trying to get around violating a trademark but still getting the brand name recognition.

  2. That must be a very old toilet...American Standard has been around for many decades, but their best-known products bore the "Standard" name, quotation marks and all, until at least the mid-1960s.

  5. There's a standard, but we're not *really* meeting it.
