Squatting toilets are a thing in Asia. Asians are overrepresented at universities. The first pictogram is an obsessive hygiene thing amongst some Asian people, though you should never, ever sit like that on a toilet bowl. There’s been cases of the ceramic bowl cracking and splitting in half, splitting the squatting toiler user in half along with them on the razor-sharp ceramic edge. I wouldn’t suggest googling those injuries.
It’s cultural differences mate. A lot of toilets in other continents and countries are for squatting only.
The first time I saw this when taking a dump in Agora, I thought that the most bottom arrow was to the opposite direction. I was sat on the bowl positioned like The Thinker trying to figure out why in the ever living shit one would first crap, then wash their hands and *then* go take a piss. Figuring out that the arrow was in the opposite direction took me longer than I care to admit.
We also had this issue at our building at UGent, a large influx of Chinese Ph.D. students led to a sudden and noticeable increase of footprints on the toilet seats until these went up.
Just imagine why they felt the need to put this up lol
Universiteiten…een bron van kennis en cultuur
Still hard for a lot of people to do it right
*taught
Looks stupid until you realize they were put up because people were doing it wrong…
Like my employer needing to put up signs to not drop toilet paper in the urinals, despite toilet paper being nowhere near the urinals.
No way that I’m seeing the KU Leuven indirectly endorsing wiping your ass while standing 😡
They didn’t teach you English though. It’s taught, not learnt.
There is a building in diepenbeek used by both uhasselt and pxl that has signs saying we shouldn’t throw toilet paper or paper wipes in the urinoirs
KUL should have taught you english though
I thought you were supposed to wipe your ass with the paper tf? Turns out you just drop it in the bowl huh
I work at an international multi billion company where the average employee makes about 8k a month and they taught me how to wash my hands in the same way.
“Shitpost”
Shitposting at it’s finest
awe! I did it wrong? I should pee into hand dryer… Sorry for that
the fact that ku leuven is not using its massive clout to spread bidet culture, the toilet usage of the future, is the real travesty
Good! Now if only they taught you English!
Instructions unclear, shit in the cistern
Who the fuck stands up after wiping to drop the paper in like that

Agora?
