in italy, restrooms are called WCs…short for water closets. what’s cool about these are that when you flush, there are usually two buttons that you can choose from: a bigger one or a smaller one. the smaller one flushes a smaller amount of water so that you can conserve better.

my parents just remodeled their bathrooms and they got toilets that operate in a similar fashion. i think that’s pretty cool. i wonder why it took so long for that to move over to the US market…
