It all started with the automatic toilet. That annoyed me. I can’t tell you how many times the stupid sensor decided I was done when in fact I wasn’t. That was bad enough.
But the Bathroom Powers That Be couldn’t leave well enough alone, could they? It’s gotten out of control. Automatic hand dryers. Automatic paper towel dispensers. Automatic soap dispensers. Automatic faucets. Where does the madness end?
I’m beyond tired of waving my hands around inanimate objects in public restrooms just hoping the sensor will take pity on me and give me what I want. Sometimes I think there are hidden cameras in the mirrors, and we’re all going to feel pretty stupid when they post the footage on YouTube.

Great post and I agree! I’d love it if readers who care about restrooms would help with my research project and vote in the restroom poll at http://www.skiptotheloo.com. I also welcome comments (in Potty Talk) about any very good or bad experiences you wish to share. If we make our voices heard, hopefully conditions will get better. Thank you!

Misty, You are hilarious… I can picture your face when I read every word. I’m adding a link to your blog on mine. By the way, my 9-yr-old daughter will be so upset that you’re picking on automated products in restrooms. She has wanted to invent automated t.p. holders for a long time now. How annoying would that be if it malfunctioned?
