For an image subreddit with fewer restrictions, check out /r/misc!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

How is this saving water? The washing machine drains into the sewer pipe. The water hose is connected to the water system, and so is the toilet, separately. I'd say they put it up there to conserve space, or they possibly had no other place to connect the washing machine to water / the sewer.

That said, I wouldn't like to be around for a spin cycle and metal fatigue.

"Derr, it's above the toilet. Water flows down. Duh!"

[–]MrBubbaBaba 13 points14 points ago

It would be a pretty shitty way to die if that thing fell while you were taking a dump.

[–]slick561 6 points7 points ago

Because fuck gravity.

[–]JakeTheSwede 3 points4 points ago

I'm sure that safety was your top priority when you made this?

[–]ATworkONre33it 2 points3 points ago

So you have a small chance of dropping a sock in the toilet when pulling clothes out of the wash? I guess that is worth saving water.

[–]average_stranger 1 point2 points ago

This is not watersaving. Just saving space on the floor, but thats a good thing.

BTW. I would make the shelf in a complete different way, by using woodstuds and framing a shelf. The brackets seems dangerous.

As an Asian: how the fuck do they reach the buttons?

By having proud Nordic blood!

Finally something to do while peeing

[–]Taggertt 1 point2 points ago

I think it's saving space more than water - Which is actually a very good idea, the area above the toilet is rarely used, and is at a height which most adults could access easily.

If this person wanted to save water, I'd imagine they could hook up a brown water waste system throughout their house, where by waste water from baths and sinks could be used in the toilets.

[–]Ryusko 1 point2 points ago

I dunno, I'd rather put in shelves above the toilet and put the washing machine where the shelved stuffed was. The fewer several-hundred-pound appliances above my head while taking a dump the better.

[–]Grimwold2 0 points1 point ago

I would not want to be sitting on that toilet.
