So when one of those trains breaks down, does it leave skid marks?

/And is the headline referring to dot or feather Indians?

//DRTFA.

I blame Dave Matthews.

The acidic content of what gets flushed, it turns out, steadily corrodes the tracks, making them unstable and unreliable.

So stop eating and shiatting batteries, you fools!

Wait... so leaving piss and shiat all over the place isn't a good idea? Huh.

That's why there's a sign in the train bathroom that says not to use it while the train is in the station.

And they do most of our tech support......

Once when I was a kid the top of our neighbors old steel can style septic tank rusted through and collapsed. I had to stay inside for a few days because of the stench. From what I've read that's basically what all of India smells like. Definitely not on my top ten list of places I want to visit.

Damn you...I was just about to post that.

The article fails in comparison to this picture.

Do the needful - loose motions

It hasn't been all that long that trains in the U.S. emptied on the tracks as well.

I think Bob Dylan named an album after this.

Just fyi, urine breaks down into ammonia, which is a cleaning agent. This is why you see piss boys in movies depicting the French Renaissance, etc. Most notable piss boy role goes to Mel Brooks from 'History of the World (part 1)'



/it's 'DeMo-nay'

I guess it's better to rust the tracks on the G train than to wind up with rusty tracks in your G-string.

The toilets do not flush, they are literally a hole through the bottom of the car. Nothing like using a squat toilet with the train tracks whizzing by at 50 miles an hour less then three feet under your butt.

I'm sure I've seen piles of shiatty toilet paper on UK train tracks in the last couple of years, but the trains do seem to have modernised recently. Hell, we even have aircon on some of the ones I ride into London each week..... no a/c or toilets on the tubes though.

Yes, but once you have a billion people ride your rail system per day, it's generally considered a good idea not to drag stripes of effluent all over your entire goddamn country and its most expensive infrastructure.

That whole country has to be coated in sewage by now. No wonder they use too much onion, garlic and curry in their food. It covers up the taste and smell of airborne sewage.

Don't people drop trou and take a shiat right on the sidewalk in India?

dahmers love zombie: TsarTom: I remember this. The ol' belly swollen with the jackfruit thing, eh?

Yep.

Came for this, leaving relieved.

Been there done that. Worst fking thing ever.

The cool part though is you can look at the tracks below you and there is nice cool stream of air caressing your under parts.

And this is a country that is supposed to be a threat to our economy?

Isn't that what was partly responsible for taking down that bridge in Minneapolis a few years ago? Pigeons making nests in the framework and slowly corroding away the metal with years and years worth of caked-on bird shiat?

We've got two articles for the Poop Trifecta. Can we get a third?

Indolent: Isn't that crappy?

A real pisser.

What is it with India and poop?

There's some weird cultural thing going on there. I think that they LIKE having poop everywhere. There's no other explanation really.

Filthy, filthy country.

I only came to make sure someone posted this.

They could just brew up a nice spicy curried jenkem with all that waste.

sinanju: "We encourage constipation when the train is in the station"

No one in India has ever had a solid bowel movement, let alone constipation.

I thought the PK term would be Native Americans, not Indians.

"The committee found that every year around people 15,000 die on the railways and described those fatalities as a "massacre" that was being ignored by railway authorities."

/Not a nazi, it just jumped out at me

you mean they dont have a sewage system on their trains? not surprising considering even today, new houses in india are not typically built with a toilet. One thing India doesnt want the rest of the world to know is that almost the entire country regularly poops outside. dont you people watch Vanguard?

Here's an entire documentary about them not having enough places to poop.

I give you... "The World's Toilet Crises" Link (new window)

/Actually very interesting

Also, this...



/Irrelephelant?
//Maybe.

Jessica's Dad: Oh, my God. He shiat everywhere. There's shiat everywhere! Damnit! There's shiat on the windows! Oh, my God! My house is full of shiat! He shiat everywhere! Look what he did! He shiat all over the walls! There's shiat everywhere!

Showing my age again but there used to be a ditty:

Pasengers will please refrain
From flushing toilets while the train
Is in the station
Darlin' I love you
