Well, this is as ridiculous as it sounds, and what makes it even more so is that the public sector wants to be a partner of this thuggery... but toilets? Blocked ones, specifically, that apparently cost to be unblocked, as if one hasn't done that countless times throughout the year... how would one commit fraud, though? Why, of course, change lock so they can't unblock it surreptitiously and then get someone else to do it and charge the first party, why not? I can't believe my life has come to this, but if I have to plunge an axe into some brute due to... a blocked toilet... I mean, I'm just not going to open the door at all, but what if they destroy it and enter? I can only kill them in self-defence, even if the public sector persecutes its own citizens, no? It's like someone sat at the beginning of the year and thought "right, how will we create as many problems for them?" - I think they're pressuring me incessantly in the hope that I'd commit suicide, but there is no way I'm not going to take some f*****g brute down with me!

I don’t like having to pay to use the bathroom, either.

I think he had to go to the bathroom badly, didn’t have the money for the paid toilet, and almost crapped on himself before finding a free toilet.

I hope he didn’t crap on himself.

Pay to use toilets? Time to wear diapers then, wear the best brand out there like Better Dry, Crinklz, Dry 24/7, ABU Simple or Ultra, Northshore Mega Max or Supreme.

In Europe, they have many more paid toilets than we do.

I would have told the guy to go to McDonald’s, order a pie of something, then use its bathroom.

He’s mad about paid toilets.

I think it is ridiculous to pay to pee or poo. I shouldn't have to pay to watch my hands after I eat. Also the fact I go multiple times a day, it all adds up so not fun as a tourist. Made me wish I had worn EU diapers there. But then I realized each time I would have to pay to change my diaper. Next time I go to Europe, things will be different just as long as I don't have to take a s**t and don't drink red Bulls or any caffeine drinks. :lol:

Is there a Starbucks on every corner in Europe cities?

Everywhere in Paris were paid bathrooms but in London and elsewhere in the UK, only very few places had paid bathrooms but many of them were free. We would just go underground for the toilets because they were always free.

Not at Victoria Train Station!

They have Costas in the UK, too, which is very much like Starbucks.

Have you never heard of the phrase "I am going to spend a penny"? In olden days you had to put a penny into a little slot to get into the toilet cubicle.

These days they are 20p or even 30p to get in some toilets, though many are free.

Pay toilets tend to be in places where there is antisocial behaviour problems in the evening/night.

probably government fishing for it's own (thug) subventions
happens a lot

- when the kids were in secondairy, the school hauled in jobless underdevellopped thugs for surveillance over the schoolyard, yeahyeah,foulmouthed twenty yo's in charge off 12 to 14 yo's,
great ideas on the money wheels

then when something happened, the head of school had the police going after parents who weren't there,
for their boys not jumping into the fight
decline all responsability as schoolinstitute, what an educational occasion

In the UK you can get RADAR keys that let you into locked disabled toilets for free. I have one.

I had to reread the post. At first I thought the OP was being tortured because of accidentally stopping up a commode. Then I read the replies and that helped too.

This is not very nice, but my Dad is older.

I haven't used many bathrooms that I had to pay for, maybe one or two. So my experience in that respect is not vast. I am familiar with shopping in stores where there is a facility, but it's not available to the public. A few years ago my father and I were shopping and he had eaten a ton of fast food and 3 twinkies. Well, he had a 911 episode. We were in one of the stores that has a bathroom, but it's not open to the public. My Dad is very nice, he politely told the clerk that if she would not permit him to use the bathroom that he simply had no choice but to poop in the floor.

She let him in, for free.

I'm reminded of an old joke where a Frenchman was visiting London and had to go to the bathroom. He was unable to find an outdoor bathroom of the type they had in Paris. He was stopped multiple times by the London police who said, "You can't do that in London, you know." Finally, he rushed into a London doctor's office, specializing in urology, and was able to relieve himself."

The doctor asked, "Who said you couldn't relieve yourself?"

The Frenchman replied, "Ze entire London police department!"
