Back when I was in my guesthouse in Bangkok, they had signs in the toilets that said "please don't stand on the toilet seat." I thought to myself, well isn't that obvious. The only reason I'd stand on a toilet seat is if I were trying to hide from some mass murderer and thought maybe he wouldn't see my feet if I were standing on the seat in the stall (do I watch too much tv?)
But I digress. As I've carried on through more of Thailand, and Malaysia and Singapore, and I've gone in to public toilets in various train stations, etc, and I've seen very distinguishable black footprints on various toilets seats, I now understand why the signs are up there. I guess if you are used to only seeing squat toilets, then all of a sudden there's this big white thing up off the ground, you'd be confused as far as what to do as well. The same way I wasn't quite sure how to manually flush the squatters when I first saw them.
But more about toilets another time.
I am supposed to fly to Bali in a few hours, but there appears to be a monsoon outside - it's just white with rain. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Maybe some people don't want to put their bum on the seat. Eh?
