Toilet Seat Conspiracy - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in late 2012 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2012, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts. Here is the full original RF Cafe Forums on Archive.org

Does anyone know if commercial toilet seats are purposely designed to make sure the sitter's legs go to sleep within 5 minutes of the time he/she sits down?

I can read half a magazine on the crapper at home with no ill effects, but man, I barely get past the editorial page here at work without practically needing to call for help to stand up. Trying to walk back to the cubicle without looking like a cripple is a challenge.

Anyone else out there noticed this?

I have noticed that also. I can lose $4000 playing solitaire on my HP jornada pda at home, or read an entire article in American Heritage of Invention and Technology.

But at work I have to get up quickly. Its a shame... its where I used to do most of my most creative thinking.

Well.... if it werent for the newer toilet seats, the guy on his cellphone in the next stall would bother me anyway.....


The first few times I heard a guy talking on the cellphone in the stall I was just shocked. Now when it happens, I make lots of groaning noises...
Hey.... maybe his wife wants to hear that kind of stuff !
