Fun Custom Furniture Pieces By Straight Line Designs

Whimsical home furnishings abound these days, but furniture design is still generally kept on the straight and narrow, functional without being too outlandish looking.

Straight Line Designs creates one-of-a-kind furniture pieces and installations, and they aim to change the way we see furniture design with their unique and lighthearted creations.

There’s a coffee table that appears to be taking a tinkle on the carpet, a bench/coffee table combination that looks like it's being opened like a can of sardines, and many other fantastic designs that are totally functional and totally fun!

The socialist utopias of Europe seem to have no problem charging for the use of their WCs. Coin operated seems a wee bit crass and very obtrusive when you really really really have to go, so no wonder it is hated in the US. They should've copied the European version, with a grumpy old woman grunting incomprehensibly whenever you get out of the WC without putting something on the "tip" plate.

There is an old song called "Babylon Mall" about our local shopping mall by a comedy troupe (it's on YouTube). One of the lines is "you pays to pee at the mall" lol. You don't pay to pee there anymore but I do remember when the pay toilets were there. I think they removed them in the early nineties.

Wonder if when they started abolishing pay toilets, they used the Beatles song "You Never Give Me Your Money" as it's theme. Likely not since it was a Paul song and not a JOHN song.

There are still some places in the US where you must pay to "go" - as Eddie says, they make you pay for a token. Last time I was in the Casino in Seaside Heights it was still the case there - still worth the money if you've had too much coconut cream pie...

New York outlawed pay toilets in '75 alright, but waived that rule for NYC in '93. Now there are plenty of em around. Not exactly a recent development, and deserving a mention.

It's a weird idea, isn't it? You pay, but less than it really costs, and get the hassle of needing to have change in a hurry. And in exchange for the .25-$1 or so, the locale risks having to clean up human waste off the walls and floor.
