Psychotic Toilets of DOOM! Next to my job!

I guess I am the last know about stuff—but (and thanks IRC for the heads up) NYC has new public toilets. HOORAY! They cost 25 cents for 15 minutes and "after 12 minutes of use, an acoustic alarm and red flashing lights go off for three minutes before the door opens."

I'm SORRY WHAT? Some kid is so going to be permanently traumatized. BAH!

After this, the doors close and the bathroom is sterilized within an inch of its life.

Also, it is imperative to mention that the maximum capacity is 450 pounds.. erm for one toilet / person? Maybe I have a dirty mind but

bow-chick-y-wow-wow.

Here is the Press Release ((and I hope the ripping of toilet paper as oppose to the cutting of ribbon for the grand opening is duly noted))!
