Toilets
The toilets in Japan are like no other in the world. They are super advanced. The standard ones have inbuilt bidets, and heated seats. The really posh ones have buttons that you can press to make flushing sounds, urine analysis, automatic electric seat covers and play music. The gadgetry is endless. The toilet in the bar today had 8 LEDs, 3 knobs, 4 buttons, and a full control panel mounted opposite; and a flush. God knows what it all did.
Yesterday, I sneaked (not snuck) a book into the toilet at work, so I could waste even more time by reading. I did this by putting into a carrier bag to disguise it. Thus, when I emerged from the stall, it appeared as if I had a medical problem, and a bag full of medicine, rather than laziness issue.
Here is a picture of a toilet control panel, mounted next to the bowl. Taken from my cameraphone - to avoid walking into the toilet with a giant SLR.
