Santa delivering his presents early?

Either that, or perhaps some disgruntled customer taking revenge on the emporium below? Fish & Shits?

Not much else to be said about this picture other than to reassure Dangerous Minds’ readers that we do have indoor toilets in Scotland. I should know—I live in the Bonnie country.

Heil Shitler: Hitler’s Toilet lives (in a New Jersey auto-body shop)

What you’re looking at is Adolf Hitler’s porcelain throne which currently resides in an auto-repair shop in Florence, New Jersey. The toilet was once used on Hitler’s private yacht, the Aviso Grille, “which was between 400 and 500 feet long.”

After the war ended, the Aviso Grille was taken to the United States and ended up in the hands of New Jersey shipyard owner Harry Doan, who illegally charged visitors 25 cents to board and tour Hitler’s Yacht. However, according to Glass, both Doan and the federal government wanted to prevent the ship from becoming a memorial to Hitler, and so it was scrapped in Doan’s salvage yard in the early 1950s.

In the 1950s, a gentleman by the name of Sam Carlani purchased Hitler’s toilet from the salvage yard for his auto-repair shop simply becasue he “needed a new toilet.”

Greg Kohfeldt bought the auto-shop from Sam Carlani almost 20 years ago, and is now the owner of the commode.

The toilet has been a ‘functional tourist attraction’ since 1952, Kohfeldt said. People would take road trips—as I had—just to see it. (Indeed, the toilet is listed in Roadside America’s online guide.)

While Kohfeldt seems proud of his object’s notoriety, he seems remarkably unexcited by the fact that he owns Hitler’s toilet.

As a side note: You think they would have at least cleaned the toilet for this photo. Yuck.

What the hell did I just watch? This WTF video brings up so many burning questions: Like WHY did toilet etiquette grandmaster Robert Jackson make this video in the first place? WHO is he? Why does the video mysteriously go black for 34 seconds? The whole “wipe your penis with a folded sheet of toilet paper” business… how many guys really do that? Did he talk to a lot of guys to ask them about this or what? Is there really such a thing as “cleaning the urine channel”? Everybody flushes twice? HOW does he know this? Why do split-second edits of toilets appear randomly in the video like it’s some kind of Fight Club tribute? 

I think this video raises many more questions than it answers.
