Aha! Well that would explain the anomaly (or perhaps standard) I found today: most of my toilets are spinning counter-clockwise. Are the Simpsons making things up? Are there directional outlets making the water spin one direction? If I pour Mobile 1 in the toilet, will it make it flow faster and last longer?
Now I'll have to experiment with the sink. Better yet, the bathtub as it would hold more water. Have to see if the rubber duck spins clockwise or counterclockwise when I drain it.

I am pleased to report that my toilet flows anti-clokwise. Which is weird, because Im on the northern hemisphere.
There are two options:
a. The whole country has been magicaly transported into the southern hemipshere,
b. The Simpsons are wrong
And becasue, as we know, Simpsons are never wrong, the b option is rubbish, which leaves us with a.
That measn that all the natives of the southern hemisphere will now have to look out for drunk yodlers.

I do appreciate the effort, though. I remember when the Simpsons go to Australia, they had a super-expensive device in the US Embassy to make their toilets flow clockwise so it must be true.
Hey, JJ. Go flush a toilet for us!

For those of us who can't make it anytime soon, Becks, do give a flush and full report. |
