This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
I don't know why, but this big complex pipe structure was situated above the urinal. When you flush, the red light goes off and the green light goes on, and all the pressure dials start going crazy.
I don't know why
My dude have you ever heard of "just for fun?"
Well somebody installed it, of course, but the place is currently the storefront of a noodle shop that used to be a food cart. My guess is it wasn't them, but it feels like the ratio of probable cost to value is way out of wack for any restaurant unless this somehow fit into an aesthetic somehow.
Edit: It used to be called "Industrial Cafe and Saloon", and had an industrial/metal theme. Which does, indeed, explain this.
This is not a urinal, this is an inter-dimensional time space teleportation device
Placement In Space and Situation of Eventual Relativity
Or PISSER for short.
Getting it up to 88mph is the tough part.
Obi Wan: I will do what I must
Every time you flush some poor dinosaur gets hit in face with a bunch of piss outta nowhere.
The Doctor has regenerated into a real freak this time...
After you flush it the world changes in a few scuddle ways
That's an awesome Rube Goldberg machine of a pisser.
Hopefully whoever built that will make a version for the Chinese sperm extractor machine next.
Of the Chinese what now?!
That's really nice. Waaaay better than those pictures of women laughing or whatever.
Where is this? I wanna pee there.
"Bing Mi Dumpling and Noodle Bar" in Northwest Portland, Oregon. Food was pretty good too fwiw.

Are you in a nuclear submarine?
looks like a urinal on Myst Island
This makes me so happy someone gets this reference 😊
When the light is green, the trap is clean.
“When the light is green, the urinal’s clean.”
There is a chain of hotels/bars/breweries/distilleries/... called McMenamins, they have a few bathrooms like this. Damn cool
Now I want their Cajun tots…
fyi - you can buy their Cajun seasoning mix online. Add to tater tots yourself. Now you don't need to wait 45 minutes for tots!
This is not a McMenamins. :( And it doesn't appear to have actually been one in the past..?
lol I love it
steampunk pee
And it's galvanized piping too. What a nightmare.
I guess it's an effective way of getting people to remember to flush?
Wow, after eleven years, it's still there.
Is this a joke or do you really know this place?
More like comment that this keeps being reposted. A photo of the same urinal is on Flickr since 2009, for example.
Oh neat. Thanks!
Looks like you could make an alarm go off if you use it „well“ enough lol
Does the red light mean it's out of order? Or is that some kind of red light special?
Oops, didn't read the body!
Grey box is a flow sensor that turns lights on/off. Bell shaped thingy is a pressure reducing valve. Pressure gauges and valves are obvious. Not sure what the last thing is, maybe to prevent hammering?
"That is a cool steampunk system! Where does the steam come from, though?"
This looks like it was intentional. 100%.
steampunk urinal
This would crazy fit a steampunk themed place.
Ever see nin's "broken" movie?
I feel like the red light means you were not found worthy
Is it like a carnival game where you can test your water pressure?
That is a pretty cool urinal. A good structure.
Performance art.
That looks amazing and I want it.
