WARNING / TOILET / PAPER / ONLY

Commentary

Yet another case where one is forced to grab their turd out of the bowl and find some other place to dispose of it. No window in this toilet, so was forced to push it down the plughole of the sink.

No attempt at politeness with this sign. Almost like it’s genuinely a warning for your own protection. They aren’t asking for a favour, they are giving the scantest hint that the toilet is a sentient creature and if you try to flush a turd down it’s throat it will rise up and punish you.
