I can't help but think of Dr. Evil when he uses finger quotes for "laser beam" and "Death Star" because he believes he made them up. Did someone actually think "flush" was a one-of-a-kind word?
I'm just glad to see any signs asking people to flush. At Ryerson guys have made a habit of NOT flushing anything at all. I don't know if it's a cleanliness thing or a laziness thing but the urinals are always bright yellow with stagnant urine.
The sign lies!!! IT'S THE EJECT BUTTON!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a joke. Your face will become flushed with self-consciousness when you push the little black button and nothing happens.

ReplyDeleteNice! I tried earlier to come up with some joke using that version of "flush" but nothing came to me.
I'm so glad this is up now, just too proud :)
ReplyDeleteAs a point of fact, those toilets were *supposed* to be self-flushing. The self-flush doesn't work, hence the sign.
Somehow, that actually makes "flush" funnier to me.
