Time to pull Robocop out of retirement. Fort Lauderdale Mayor Jim Naugle has launched a high-tech campaign against cottaging.
As part of his crusade, Naugle's asking the city council to shell out an estimated $250,000 for a "robotic toilet". The toilet, which can be found in some parts of Atlanta and New York, runs on a timer. After the allotted time's passed, the door pops open, which would be really shitty if you have diarrhea.
The Sun Sentinel elaborates:
Naugle, not a stranger to public controversy, particularly on the issue of gays, said public restrooms are pickup places for "homosexuals. … They're engaging in sex, anonymous sex, illegal sex."The proposed location for the city's experimental automated toilet is the parking lot at Sebastian Street, at what many locals call the "gay beach." Naugle told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel that the intelligent commode's security features are vital at this location, which he called "the rainbow parking lot."
What a cleverly offensive nickname, Naugle, although we prefer "butt sex parking lot". It's more to the point, so to speak…
What they don't mention, and which I seem to remember reading somewhere when they were developing these for New York, is that the timer is set for 20 minutes. Anyone who really wants a quick fuck can have a whole lot of sex in 20 minutes. Or even 5 minutes.
Moral of the story is: However long grandma takes to shit, I guarantee a couple fags can get the deed done in less time.
Oh, certainly.
Ah, memories. Good times.
Sex in public bathrooms (not just parks but restaurants, clubs, schools) is one of the great privileges of being a gay. Fuck you, timers.
