Toilets
The toilet has to be one of the most interesting things on this planet. It is a fixture which every human being needs to use, sometimes several times a day, but somehow humanity has a sense of shame connected with something that we have little or no control over. It is a very simple pice of machinery, operating with a weight and lever system that ensures waste material will be removed promptly after deposit. The tank is then filled with clean water that is usually stored in a resevoir and the resevoir is refilled.
For some strange reason, all humans are ashamed of the fact that they have biological processes. The seek to hide this fact by creating rooms devoted to making it even more shameful.
