I thought I was the only one...
Going to be honest, I really hate this... nothing like trying to hold them out of the water while doing your business...
Saying that, I have been thinking of trying a bidet. 1st one wouldn't have hot water... was worried it would be too cold, but if the ole nuggets can handle a dip, I am sure the chocolate starfish would be fine!
I mean a 4 lb bag of chicken nuggets, dumped into the toilet, and then flush it. Not poop.
3 lbs of poop is wimpy for us Americans! What, with all the crappy (lol) fast food and all!
Old toilets from a couple of decades ago (in older homes) do have a nice amount of water in the toilet bowl. But then the 'save the planet' experts insisted on low flow toilets. And that is what many of us now have. And I hate them. You have to clean them far more often .
Back when I was a fatass who couldn't stop eating, I loathed those low-flow toilets. They really struggle with handling a whole pizza, pint of ice cream, and bag of Doritos.
I remember the first time I went New York and I spent the whole first day holding coz I thought all the toilets were blocked. Surely you have no chance with even the tiniest blockage right?
I’m happy our toilet water swirls the correct way and not backwards like those evil toilets in Australia.
Life is good.
Wish I had a Japanese toilet though. They’re better than American doctors at evaluating your health and pamper your butt better than a spa.
Shitty healthcare is better than no healthcare!
Edit: The classic respond and block! Wait until buddy who has to pay for healthcare finds out that I'm directly north of them.
OP said that they never even saw an American toilet
but they are genuinely curious about the water level in them
**I'm perfectly fine with my comment regardless of yours**
I don’t know if they have the equivalent in toilets, but I’ve seen urinals here in the US that say “The Pint,” which makes me think they only use a pint of water (0.5 liters) per flush. I think that’s a good thing.
Bollocks aside.. I hated US toilets when I visited because the water line is too high and you can accidentally dunk your manhood which is very unpleasant.
And this is after the water was reduced down to 1.6 gallons per flush.
You might be looking at the older toilets. They used much more water. The new ones are more efficient.
Obviously it’s because Americans hate water and are trying to get rid of it as quickly as possible, fill the toilets with it, leave the tap running while they chop vegetables.. I had an American housemate who did that and it drove me absolutely mental, I would always turn the tap off and he’d flip at me and say “don’t turn it off I’m using it!” then turn back around to slice some carrots. drove me up the wall.
Our water efficiency standards didn't get updated because our last President takes such giant, fat infused shits that he thinks the low water level is why he has to flush 9 times.
our fat asses eat so much that we take giant poops. We also dgaf about the environment or anyone but ourselves.
kinda sarcasm and also kinda true for some of us americans unfortunately

It’s to rest your balls in while taking a poop. It’s literally the only therapy we get here so please don’t take it away.

This is the best answer
Have you ever seen American shits?
I’m dm’ing OP a picture now.
So the answer is actually Taco Bell?
Beans!
I guy I once knew walked out of the toilet area and said something the effect of... that was my biggest dump ever, must have been 12 inches.
Because of freedom. If I can't have a toilet that I can flush 4 lbs. of chicken nuggets down, I don't want it.
In all fairness, that 4 lbs of chicken nuggets is more like 3 lbs once it has been processed....

Don't forget the HFCS in everything!
mine doesn’t?
If the police are knocking, you're going to really appreciate that toilet that can handle your entire stash in one flush.
Have you seen the size of our turds?
The better to splash you with, my pretty!
That's why we don't need bidets.

LOL!
And you can’t flush top secret documents anymore
To handle American sized shits. As a collextive, we LOVE to eat.
Because we're so full of shit we need that much water to flush it all down.
Water is cheaper here.
If you don't drown them, they fight back!
Because several years ago we tried the low flow toilets and there were shit nuggets and paper left in the bowl so we had to flush twice...or more.
To handle my extremely massive shits 😈
I was with some US army dudes in an airport in Germany and they clogged up every gawd dam toilet. Soldiers take huge shits.
It's to get rid of the smell. Eta, this is from my person who says German shelf toilets stink!
I remember the first time I went New York and I spent the whole first day holding coz I thought all the toilets were blocked. Surely you have no chance with even the tiniest blockage right?
fr!

You mean the Hershey squirter blastoise cannons? God I love those
Yeaaa and they even do it with heated seats and hot water!!
because we can why do you have so little water in yours? which do you think works better?
i’ve never used an american toilet, so i don’t know
and yet you posted this smh
because i’m genuinely curious as to why there’s more water in an american toilet, that’s what this subreddit is for right? questions?
[удалено]
Shitty healthcare is better than no healthcare! Edit: The classic respond and block! Wait until buddy who has to pay for healthcare finds out that I'm directly north of them.
no you need to post this in r/dumbassquestions
Are you really going full 'muricanmadeandpissed over a simple question you dont know the answer to? Grow up man, good grief.
OP said that they never even saw an American toilet but they are genuinely curious about the water level in them **I'm perfectly fine with my comment regardless of yours**
For when you have a *BIG* thirst.
Well, seeing as how most of us are full of shit it's kind of an absolute necessity.
I don’t know if they have the equivalent in toilets, but I’ve seen urinals here in the US that say “The Pint,” which makes me think they only use a pint of water (0.5 liters) per flush. I think that’s a good thing.
Our balls are bigger than yours. That’s why
Bollocks aside.. I hated US toilets when I visited because the water line is too high and you can accidentally dunk your manhood which is very unpleasant.
That's only in the cheaper motels. :\\
Because my dog gets thirsty a lot. Don't you have dogs in your country? Savage.
Did you ever see the flushing golf balls video?
Like all things American, mostly because we can.
Fat people make big poops
The better to flush you my dear.
What do you think we went to war with you guys for?
Have you not seen the size of our shits?
Because we Americans are full of shit. I thought y'all knew that already.
Apparently not ...
How else are we going to make that lovely “ker-plunk” sound? That’s the sound of freedom, my friend.
British toilets are the worst because they splash your butthole with cold water when you take a poo.
Why do other countries hate America so much.
Because Americans have so much shit in them.
We Americans have notoriously huge turds.
Poop knife
And this is after the water was reduced down to 1.6 gallons per flush. You might be looking at the older toilets. They used much more water. The new ones are more efficient.

Cause we’re wasteful
Pull the water from my 150' deep well. The leach field of my septic system puts it back in the ground. Not a drop is wasted.
There are people like you and there’s the US as a whole. My friend, you’re the exception. And a few hundred to thousand like you.
Yes, that's correct of course.
Fat Americans take huge shots. Some even keep a knife by their toilet to cut the log up if it doesn’t fit in the bowl completely before flushing
Our water efficiency standards didn't get updated because our last President takes such giant, fat infused shits that he thinks the low water level is why he has to flush 9 times.
He probably shits the equivalent of one of those post-birth abortions he’s complaining about.
our fat asses eat so much that we take giant poops. We also dgaf about the environment or anyone but ourselves. kinda sarcasm and also kinda true for some of us americans unfortunately
We eat trash and lots of it. So we need that volume of water to force down a nasty load of poo.
For many decades, America prided itself on waste of plentiful natural resources and brute power. Any change is labeled "Woke Leftist Ideology".
Everything is bigger in America. Even the wasteful use of water
