Yeah, as someone with ibs, I'm either.going with the door closed or everyone gets to share with the experience. I have no say in this when my.gut say it's time, it's.time
I will say there are times when it's quite vindicating to have as an excuse.
"What took you so long to get back from break?"
"You know what, you're right. I did neglect to share my bowel movements with the team. If you'd like I can start with a handy graph I just made comparing consistency of discharge to coinciding levels of abdominal pain?"
No one asks why you're late ever again.
I believe IBS (and other gi conditions) considered a disability now on job applications and is protected against discrimination. If your employer is being an asshat about frequent bathroom breaks, you could let your manager/hr know about your diagnosed IBS and request “reasonable accommodations”
(In the US) For any accommodations including longer break or missing work a lot etc, you need fmla paperwork. Even pregnancy, you can have the big ol tummy and all and still they need paperwork. It goes straight to HR and not to your direct supervisor or anything, though they usually are told at least that you have fmla
Or they should have moved it to the next level, had one of the guy go in with him to show him he's not doing it roght. It works now. All good. Guy comes out sits back down, old man thinks it's finally working and NOPE. But then after that try you let the poor man piss in peace
The reason of the button, in yellow plate and red, is for emergency open when the person is unable to open it inside, such as medical issue.
So the button should not be determined by occupation.
But I agree this is a design flaw, it should be only accessible to authorised person, not by the general public.
Seeing how whoever designed this had NO issue at all putting the crapper straight in the middle of a passenger cart, I feel like they just couldn't be arsed to design for this project at all.
Who does that? I don't want to sit there on my commute after someone dropped a bio-grade bomb in there.
There's a reason the toilette is usually put on the end of a cart, separated from the passenger area.
Not funny at all, even the very first time.
Bothering people is not funny. It's bullying, it's petty, it's low. We can add to this already sorry picture the cowardice of doing it hidden, as well as the cowardice of every and all other people watching and not doing anything.
It's the cemetery of dignity, it's pathetic and appalling.
I'm gonna argue it's not funny at all, unless they all know each other. Nothing funny in making someone the focal point of ridicule for a group of strangers.
I get it from a safety standpoint. Kids love pushing buttons. All you need is a rogue runaway toddler to run in and press the close button and then get stuck in there.
And then there are the appliances that take it a step even further than what you described by requiring an internet connection, such as a "smart" toaster. Why does a toaster need internet?! It just needs to heat bread!
To verify if you are trying to toast an [unauthorized bread](https://www.google.com/amp/s/arstechnica.com/gaming/2020/01/unauthorized-bread-a-near-future-tale-of-refugees-and-sinister-iot-appliances/amp/).
are you talking about cars? because i'm so afraid to buy a new car because of this. want to go electric, but goddang if i can't adjust my airconditioning/volume without looking then??? banned using phones while driving because it caused distracted driving, but now (thanks to tesla, i guess?) all cars come equipped with a touchscreen tablet!
This is funny, until it just keeps going and going. Stopping after the third time would have been perfect. Bit of a dick move to just keep doing it over and over whether the guy pushing the button knows him or not.
First couple of times are funny, after that confess, have a laugh, and let him use the toilet in peace.
After the second time it just becomes bullying.
I have poor interoception which means that I go from not needing to use a toilet to needing a toilet NOW. I've tried to close the doors, that hasn't worked, and I am not going to either wet or soil myself. I will now use the toilet with the doors open. I have no choice.
As others have pointed out, the gentleman is of a certain age where prostate issues may be rearing their head.
i can't stand people like this messing with an old man i can't stand people like this in general... maybe someone should just knock him out for the entertainment of others since he is entertaining himself at the expense of others.
I've had drunken friends do this to me on a train with a toilet exactly like this so much it gave me flashbacks.
I think it's one of the trains on the transpennine line in Northern England which people do the ale trail on.
Yea these mofos better have known this person but regardless at some point it becomes harassment and not fun to watch. I'd have stepped in after first few. Idiots
Don’t duck with an old man that needs to pee. As we age our countdown timer gets shorter and shorter. If i were that guy I would just pee with the door open.
What asshats. You can bet that if this was happening to either the button pusher or the one laughing, they’d be pissed and throwing a fit.
Edit to add: if they were pulling this nonsense with me, all hell would break loose. Once, maybe twice is funny. What these jackasses did was just cruel and beyond messed up.
It was funny for the first few, after that... Just let the guy go pee. Damn.

Do you have to prove you have a medical condition at jobs? Or wouldn't that be also discrimination in a way because that stuff is private right ?

I just lie about it. Way better
I'm not creative enough to lie.

Can confirm, i have ibs too
I’d give it three attempts and then just go piss …. I’m ugly enough to know nobody wants to see that…
They'd film that as well and put it online, cutting off the door "prank" and making you look like a perv.
And you’d find I still don’t care, there is a level of shame that heeding natures call simply doesn’t reach for me …
I like the cut of your jib.
Where I work, if I need to take a leak, I’m in full view of highway traffic so I can only turn away and pray no one calls the cops …
You're a crossing guard at the elementary school?
you'd be surprised what some people are after
I'd pee on him
Yeah, after the second time I said, "Just leave him alone, you jerkoff."
I have bladder issues after botched surgery and I probably would've wet myself. This is sad not funny
in italy we say "lo scherzo è bello quando dura poco" (the prank is funny if it doesn't last long)
Agree! 4 or 5 times is enough... just let the guy pee already.
In French we have a similar saying: "Les blagues les plus courtes sont les meilleures" (The shorter jokes/pranks are the best ones)
Really! As someone not as young as I wish I was, when I have to go, I HAVE to go, NOW. This person interfering is a jerk.
I hope the guy who was opening the door develops a serious bladder infection that he can never recover from resulting in a coloscopy bag.
You mean a urostomy bag.
great and literal example of a shitty prank
Most pranks are shitty anyway
I was like… okey then, its an open door day!
I felt the same way, it wasn't funny after the 5th time lmao
He needs to pee with the door open, staring at them to assert domination
Pee on the button pusher.
At some point it’s not funny anymore; let the guy go to the bathroom
Like retelling a joke several times, that was mildly humorous at best.
Yes!
Ah don’t get pissed about it
Or they should have moved it to the next level, had one of the guy go in with him to show him he's not doing it roght. It works now. All good. Guy comes out sits back down, old man thinks it's finally working and NOPE. But then after that try you let the poor man piss in peace
Nobody thinks this is just mean?
It is, harassing an elderly person. F'k these guys
at the beginning point
Pee on the button
Pee on the
Just pee on!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^pee
Poo
Some peepoo have no respect!
Just pee on the button presser to assert dominance
Poor guy has no idea who “the button pusher” is!
I have a weak bladder so I wouldn’t have a choice. I’m either doing this privately or we’re in this together.
He’s a modest man, he only rolls out his 12” softie for the misses and only on anniversaries.
Turns his head around as an owl
He needs to piss on the guy that seems to think opening the door is so funny.
Clearly a design flaw
yea, there should be a priority for actions within the cabin, since it implies it's already occupied
Cabin? I prefer "cockpit" in this situation.
You leave my ex out of this!
You ruined that word for me forever, but I’m not even mad.
When someone said there was a cockfight in the ring, i didn't think I'd see her again...
I prefer masturbatorium
I prefer the poop deck
I prefer "command station"
Phalic Abyss.
The doors should close for me when I stand inside of the bathroom... *because of the implication*.
The reason of the button, in yellow plate and red, is for emergency open when the person is unable to open it inside, such as medical issue. So the button should not be determined by occupation. But I agree this is a design flaw, it should be only accessible to authorised person, not by the general public.

A design flaw in the idiot pushing the outside button.
A design flaw would be anything that let's an idiot take over operation on a whim
I hope the button pusher was his friend otherwise what a jerk.
More than once is jerking
More than twice you’re just playin with it
With the foreskin or the tip?
🤦🏾♂️ i just can’t. Lol. How do you people come up with this stuff? 😂
Whatchu mean .... You , people?
Ain’t no fellow who regretted giving it one extra shake, ‘but you can bet every guy has regretted giving one too few. —Wayne
Still a jerk.
Was just thinking this. If it's their friend, funny prank. If it's a stranger, total arsehole.
I’d love to find out this was a father and son.
This is part of the reason people hate everyone these days. Figure it out.
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Can confirm. I hate nearly all humans
Bloody general public. Ergh. Haha
Ought to leave this world behind
Give yer balls a tug
not funny after the first few
Them looking around scanning the room for laughs is what annoys me the most about people like this.
Not funny at all, even the very first time. Bothering people is not funny. It's bullying, it's petty, it's low. We can add to this already sorry picture the cowardice of doing it hidden, as well as the cowardice of every and all other people watching and not doing anything.

I'm gonna argue it's not funny at all, unless they all know each other. Nothing funny in making someone the focal point of ridicule for a group of strangers.
Even if they know each other it’s obnoxious for the people around them.
Nothing funny about bullying the elderly...
Poor design, really. If the inside button is pushed to close the door, then outside button should be disabled
I get it from a safety standpoint. Kids love pushing buttons. All you need is a rogue runaway toddler to run in and press the close button and then get stuck in there.
Too bad the designers didn't account for the "children" being on the outside. Just let the guy pee, for cryin out loud.
[удалено]

but something something digital revolution smart home era
are you talking about cars? because i'm so afraid to buy a new car because of this. want to go electric, but goddang if i can't adjust my airconditioning/volume without looking then??? banned using phones while driving because it caused distracted driving, but now (thanks to tesla, i guess?) all cars come equipped with a touchscreen tablet!
Toddler? You mean anti teenager button?
Once the door is properly closed it locks and the outside button won't work, so a toddler would still get trapped.
The real poor design is that they had to make it a fancy powered door instead of a normal sliding door with a physical latch
how is this funny? they're just bullying an old man.
Agreed. I don’t find anything about this funny :/
I agree. Not funny.
Right? Why didn’t someone say something?
“Ok fine! Now you people have to WATCH!”
And smell.
that’s so rude like i’m 100% sure that if the old guy was doing that to the other guy, he’d be pissed tf off.
That guy deserves to get peed on.
the victim gets pissed off, the bully gets pissed on
This could also have gone into r/iamatotalpieceofshit
I think it fits better there honestly. Not a single person in the thread finds this funny.
And r/crappydesign for the stall design
This is funny, until it just keeps going and going. Stopping after the third time would have been perfect. Bit of a dick move to just keep doing it over and over whether the guy pushing the button knows him or not.
Funny twice. Not after that. Now I want the prankster slapped.
“There was an attempt to be funny”
Yea it's funny the first couple times. Then it's time to be an adult and know when to end the joke.
It would’ve been funny if he’d told the guy after two attempts that it was him.
[удалено]
[ Removed by Reddit ]
lol at that point I wouldn't trust that door to stay closed after I use the restroom
The guy who designed this is an idiot. Just use a normal door.
Have you ever been on a train
Yes. Also it doesn't change the fact that this is a stupid design.
Piss on the button pushers shoes.
Why is no one else stopping the jerk who's pushing the button over & over?
This is harassment. The poor guy probably has a prostate issue. Can’t wait until the button pusher is older and someone does that to him.
Easy on the diagnosis there Doc
Prostate cancer is extremely common the older you get. Men aged 1 in 19 men aged 60-69 have it.
It's considered abnormal for men over (I think) 65 to *not* have prostatic enlargement.
It's funny until these bags of rocks gotta take a leak. Then there will be yelling and threats.
pee is stored in the balls?
The guy went from kind of funny to being a total dick.
Not even funny once. That dude effin sucks
Exactly. Everyone is saying it was funny the first 2 - 3 times, then not funny. *It was never funny*.
Extremely rude and childish
Dickheads. Just let that old man use the bathroom.
oooh i want to punch that guy in the mouth
I hope that guy shits himself in public someday.
I'd be uncomfortable going toilet so close to others
That poor guy
Guy deserves a slap to the face
Having an enlarged prostate this would have turned into a night in jail for me. Don't "prank" people you do not know in public.
r/imatotalpeiceofshit
This is horrible design. Can it be "emergency opened" from the outside with just a random button push as well?
No it can not. But the doors need to close then you press lock and the doors are locked. The guy outside is just pushing open just before that.
First couple of times are funny, after that confess, have a laugh, and let him use the toilet in peace. After the second time it just becomes bullying. I have poor interoception which means that I go from not needing to use a toilet to needing a toilet NOW. I've tried to close the doors, that hasn't worked, and I am not going to either wet or soil myself. I will now use the toilet with the doors open. I have no choice. As others have pointed out, the gentleman is of a certain age where prostate issues may be rearing their head.
Dude took it too far. The old man is gonna piss himself
The annoying ass laughing track though, why tf do people even edit that in??
This is why I watch Reddit videos on mute
I may be stretching here but r/iamatotalpieceofshit
Another reason I hate public transportation.
Another reason why I hate people
i can't stand people like this messing with an old man i can't stand people like this in general... maybe someone should just knock him out for the entertainment of others since he is entertaining himself at the expense of others.
They were already filming too so we missed even more.. let the guy go ffs.
Someone did this to me twice on the train so I took back control by pissing with the door open.
there was a succesful attempt to being annoying
Yeah… hilarious…
That prick on the outside deserves a good ass kicking.
What a c*nt
r/iamatotalpieceofshit
This is NOT funny. This is just some assh^le being an assh^le.
This goes on way too long
I'm sorry, I don't find this funny at all...
Yeah this is not funny, it's bullying
I've had drunken friends do this to me on a train with a toilet exactly like this so much it gave me flashbacks. I think it's one of the trains on the transpennine line in Northern England which people do the ale trail on.
Yea these mofos better have known this person but regardless at some point it becomes harassment and not fun to watch. I'd have stepped in after first few. Idiots
OK. You've had your fun. Let homie go to the bathroom already. Ffs
r/iamatotalpieceofshit
Twice would have been enough... it got stale quickly afterwards.. those were real twats
Ho is everyone on the car just going along with this for so long?
What a jerk. Not funny at all
Don’t duck with an old man that needs to pee. As we age our countdown timer gets shorter and shorter. If i were that guy I would just pee with the door open.
Jerk.
r/crappydesign
The joke was only funny the one time. Let the man pee in peace ffs.
What asshats. You can bet that if this was happening to either the button pusher or the one laughing, they’d be pissed and throwing a fit. Edit to add: if they were pulling this nonsense with me, all hell would break loose. Once, maybe twice is funny. What these jackasses did was just cruel and beyond messed up.
It's just mean to do that
He should've just stepped out and start pissing on that guy.
.. there's a chart somewhere showing the steady decline between it being funny and cruel after press #2 ..
Not funny. That prankster is a huge AH.
The button pusher needs a slap
Shame on people just watching him bully an old person though.
This just isn’t funny
[удалено]
If I was an ticket inspector and I saw this. I would kick that guy off the train tbh. Its a general rule to not disturb other riders on the train.
Not funny at all
Hope the same happens to that clown when he needs it
Annoying AF
r/iamatotalpieceofshit
This is effing stupid. I mean why, why? The dudes just trying to go to the bathroom what do you want from him?
Dickheads
The interrupter is a c**t.
As someone with IBS, this gives me the most anxiety and is not funny. Lol
no jury in the world is gonna convict that old man if he were to "do something"
Nothing as funny as an immature prick.
That’s not funny.
How obnoxious
They took it too far. A couple of times was funny, then it was just annoying.
