I’ve really increased my following on Twitter. Not my followers. I’ve just added to the people I’m following, which of course makes it pretty much impossible to actually pay attention to any of it – except for randomly. That’s OK, ‘cuz one of the reasons I decided to bail on Facebook was because people I knew from my “real” life – particularly from work – were starting to look at my stuff (my Facebook stuff, that is; not my “Weiner” type stuff).
Not that I had a whole lot to look at (again, in terms of Facebook – no comment on the other stuff), but it very much made me censor myself. I mean, you definitely don’t wanna write “I hate my job” or “all I did was play LBreakout2 and shop on Amazon today” when there’s a chance your boss is paying attention. Hopefully nobody’s smart enough to ever come and look at this shit, or I’m really screwed (fortunately, people actually coming here no longer seems to be a problem).
So I can blissfully go about my life with (as Roger Waters once put it) the bravery of being out of range. Or (as the Car Talk guys might say) unencumbered by the thought process. After all, if you just sit in your room and talk to yourself, nobody knows you’re nuts. But if you stand out on the street corner and do it, people will cross the street to avoid you and you get labeled a schizophrenic.
That’s cool about WTF!
I guess my question was poorly crafted. What are the pros and cons of 1 and 2 piece toilets? Thus far I read that a one piece is harder to maneuver in to place. However, once installed, a one piecer is easier to clean. Is that it?
I’m just glad I read the question before I chimed in with one- v two-ply. Actually, pj might want to re-visit the dual flush issue as well.
I have been trying to find a cheap beard trimmer and didn’t think to come here or twitter. I guess I was concerned about recent scandals and being accused of having pj envy.
:omg:
well, I think I’m going the 1 piece rout. sleeker/cleaner.
Can’t help you with a beard trimmer, Vern. :sammy:
It’s OK, I found one.
I can’t see the difference in cleaning. I guess if you feel a need to clean between the tank and bowl, then that’s something you wouldn’t need to worry about with a one-piece.
If you break the tank, you can replace it if it’s a two-piece. But how often do you break the tank? I mean, other than me.
It’s not a lot more difficult to put a toilet in place with the tank than without. A little more weight, I guess. But not that big a deal.
I think the main thing is that one-piece toilets are more expensive in general. So if having a “sleek” toilet is worth the extra money, then by golly, that’s the way to go. We have one here, and I can’t really say as it makes my life any more worthwhile than the other ones. But then, well, it’s a terlet, so who really cares?
OKat, here’s a guide for what to look for when buying a toilet. Perhaps it will be of use. :crap:

Thanks guys! Sp – helpful site, thanks. My cousin has a toytoy that does everything but cook your breakfast in the morning. That’s a bit much.
But I have someone in Afghanistan who has requested that the toiled flush cleanly. Evidently it’s a issue over there.
Speaking of over there, they are still in Kabul. They had a barbeque from meat purchased at “Fat Boys.” Fat Boys’ ad says something like, “Tired of diarrhea and e-coli? Come to Fat Boys and you will be relieved.”
Thus far, there is truth in advertising.
All this talk about toilets reminded me of my first marriage. 100 people in our back yard on a hoped-for warm late November day. Plenty too drink and not enough to eat left my new wife and I with a bare cupboard, taking my brother-in-law to the hospital for an overdose and a broken toilet bowl the result of a fight. :billcat:
