Pottymania Hits China

Toiletpaper I was planning on taking a break from potty-related news, but I couldn't resist this item:

China city opens public toilet with more than 1,000 stalls, Egyptian theme, soothing music.

Chinese officials in the southwestern city that built the 4-story flushathon are spreading the news. They've got their application to the Guinness Book of World Records for world's dumbest tourist attraction at the ready. (Although they face stiff competition from the people of Collinsville, Ill.) As explained by one official with the Yangrenjie, or "Foreigners Street," tourist area where the bathroom is located:

We are spreading toilet culture. People can listen to gentle music and watch TV. After they use the bathroom they will be very, very happy.

I don't know about you, but I'm going. Because when you gotta go, you gotta go.
