They say you should never do something for free if you’re good enough at it to get paid, and apparently that applies to making stool too.

    The picture of their special donation toilet with its dramatic lighting is one of the best things I’ve seen all day.

    That loo looks amazing. I’d poop there for free. I doubt my poop would be good enough to get paid for anyway.

      I spent some time in Tokyo. They have public toilets that are absolutely amazing. And they’re free. And they’re throughout the city. What a novel idea.

        And they’re free.

        As opposed to…paying to use a public toilet? I’m confused.

          Yes. Lots of places I’ve encountered in Europe and Central and South America have a charge for the public toilets. We call them Johnny Cash.

    If perfect poop is ¥5000, how about ¥2500 for subpar poop? I can donate regularly.
