The Hand Dryer Battle of Cedar Point

That's what rapid squat-lunges are for! ;)

DJ, I've used that tactic many times.

Ensign, all you need to do is lean forward a little and you get that unwanted undercarraige spray. Sometimes these things are too sensitive.

While we are on this important subject, I think CP needs to upgrade to a better quality institutional sandpaper... oops in mean toilet paper. The stuff rips off before I get enough squares especially if its a full roll. Sorry if I'm getting too technical.

No, no, no. All that does is just take all the poo that you have gathered on your shoes since walking around in the bathroom and deposits it on the handle for everyone else who actually flushes it the right way.

Sure it does save you. But as long as you actually wash your hands, why does it matter?

;)

ps. All in good fun.

If you're using your hands to touch ANYTHING in the bathroom, you deserve poo on them. ;)

Well, this thread went right in the crapper. ;)

It must be that sanitizers leave some people with a fresh, clean feeling. What a delight for them to know the fecal matter and other filth on their hands has been sterilized.

A vigorous scrubbing of the digits and palms using imported Castile soap and hot water from a no-touch gilded spigot is preferential, followed by a uniformed attendant using tongs to hand you a fine linen hand towel. There is a secret entrance to this plush restroom in Bonesville, cleverly disguised as an outhouse. Knock three times for admission; twice on the pipes if the answer is No.

This is part of the frontier town theme, it's John Wayne tp, is ruff, tough, and doesn't take crap off of anybody.

I haven't laughed this hard in a while. Nice guys. :)

I agree with you...

I would intentionally only use the restrooms at Cedar Point that had Dyson airblades. They are so awesome they make the skin on my hands flap.

I was never a big fan of the airblade dryers. They usually blow a bunch of water (some of which is from an accumulated pool from other people's hands that forms at the bottom of those things) into my face when I use them.

My inclination when I hear stories like that is to suggest that you're doing it wrong.

But that doesn't change the fact that I find the airblade dryers tend to require two passes to get my hands incompletely dry, while the Xcelerator dryers just plain work.

I prefer the Xcelerator, my nickname for it is the Top Thrill Hand Dryer.

1. Dyson airblades (when they worked) were incredible, the water came off immediately, and is a cool concept. Plus it is quoted to be energy efficient...who knows. As for water to the face, never noticed it

2. The xlerators worked pretty nice, I didn't like the water flung onto my legs though, that I didn't like...Plus the ones in the bathroom right after the main entrance to the right...it was so loud it actually kind-of hurt my ears

3. Auto flush toilets ftw. I'd rather not touch anything after sitting in a smelly room, doing my business, and then proceed to use .40 grit sandpaper to wipe, and then be forced to touch a stainless steel handle.

4. No paper towels. I won't go for the whole environmental approach because it's a whatever. But I could just see those towels scattered all over the bathroom, or even worse in the stalls >_<

5. New soap please. The soap they use doesn't look much like hand soap, it looks more like something I'd rather not say. Also might I add it doesn't smell good whatsoever.

6. This thread made me lol...quite hard...
