Yes, someone did lose some minutes to fake this photo for likes. Good joke tho.
- Ohhh piss off
  
  says the literal grammar police
  
  It's obviously photoshopped. What are you talking about?
  
  I'm so sad to see people missing the pun and down voting...
  You got an audible grunt from me with that one sir, good job!
- Compression so garbage can't tell if it's from ps or a label maker sticker.
  
  I give you that, can very much be!
Can someone ELI'manidiot

  The serial number is on a urinal.
  
  Thank you. They should make that a fake serial number on all of them and put the real one on the back.
- thought you called yourself a man-idiot
  
  That too.
It’s beautiful
I was today years old when I realised Americans have to manually flush their urinals. It’s basically half the advantage gone.
- Depends where you are and how old the place is. Newer places (last 15ish years or so) will have the auto flush toilets but most businesses only upgrade the bathrooms when things brake.
  
  break*
  
  I'm pretty sure most places outside the US just use the huge metal trough that the US seems to reserve for stadiums
- I'm curious where you're from that every single urinal in the whole country has been upgraded.
  
  I'm from Ireland but pretty much any country I've been has all been automatic urinals
  
  It's not even upgrade, even twenty years ago, most of them were either always rinsing or on some sort of intermittent timer. I guess when they were just a big communal trench it didn't make sense for them to be flushed by an individual. (UK / various Europe)
  
  I have never seen a manual urinal in Britain. Never.
  
  I live in Belgium and the last time I remember having to flush one of these was at least 10 years ago without exaggeration
  
  I'm from Australia and it's been like 8 years since I've manually flushed
  
  In the UK all the urinals in the bathroom will be flushed automatically at the same time using an auto-syphon that is attached to a tank that's slowly and continuously filled with water.
  So it requires no moving parts or electricity, and flushes automatically at a regular interval depending on how fast the water supply is.
  And it's been that way basically forever.
- Probably less than half of them
- Once I did my business at a public urinal in Texas and was walking away and then as I was washing my hands this old white guy that went to use the urinal after me gave me a dirty look. And only then did I realize that it was not a self flushing urinal, like it's been so long since I've seen one that it needs to be manually flushed that I didn't even consider that.
- We do? Urinals with manual flush are rare. These days there's either a motion sensor, or a flushless urinal installed.
