I sit on a “used” toilet seat almost every day, but so far my workplace bathroom lacks a suitable orifice for community copulation.
From your lips to God’s ears, Cesario, for I object to this law; but I’m afraid that’s NOT how it works.
“A” law on the subject to similar ends was (rightly) ruled unconstitutional. This does not automatically void any and all upcoming laws to similar ends on the same subject. SCOTUS has NOT ruled that the government has no right to outlaw these images for any reason, just that the criteria the prior law applied for that outlawing were not constitutionally valid. In fact, PROTECT was specifically written to address the objections of the Court to the prior laws and fix what it found wrong with the previous law.
I would hope that some day the Court simply cuts off the do-overs and rules that non-real images just cannot be outlawed on a basis of subject matter, and are only subject to the plain obscenity laws; but they have NOT done that yet.
One of the documentaries about Real Dolls and the men who love them featured the Real Doll Doctor, a guy who repairs and buys and sells used ones. Again, it’s silicone, and you can boil the thing to clean it. He once refused to do any more work for a spoiled rich kid who abused the Real Dolls his parents had bought him (presumably to keep him out of the grasp of gold-diggers).
I would buy a used toilet seat that was solid plastic and had no cracks. My seat in my KC apartment is the quick remove kind, and I can pull it off and wash the whole thing with a shower sprayer. I guarantee that it’s the cleanest toilet seat you’ll ever encounter.
I refuse to get into a pissing match over who has the cleanest toilet seat.
Here in northwestern Ontario there is a demand for used toilets, which are shipped for use in Minnesota.

Wasn’t that an episode of Night Gallery? So cool to see life imitating art
If you had a spoiled rich kid couldn’t you just buy him a hooker?
You can’t boil the hooker to sterilize her. Well, you can, but she won’t be as much fun to play with afterward.
I didn’t know there were enough stupid people who were unaware of the astonishing efficiency of modern pressure-assist toilets to make a business out of it. My sparkling clean toilet seat is mounted on a Gerber Power-Flush toilet that can, I’m being completely serious, flush a whole baked potato.
I wouldn’t doubt it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFlJRcUZ2GU .
The market for used Canadian toilets arose out of the failure of the first generation of low volume toilets that were installed in Minnesota, which were nearly useless. Rather than spend a lot of money to replace the new toilets with further new toilets, many people simply went back to the old high volume toilets, which they found in second-hand abundance in Canada. It’s a pity that the first generation low volume toilets were so crappy.
I’m going have to stick with “stupid” with a side order of “irascible”. The raw cost of the toilet is the smallest part of the cost of replacing a toilet. Toss in the cost of cleaning and refurbishing one of those dreadful old five gallon toilets, it has to approach the cost of a new pressure assist toilet. I’ve never seen a five gallon gravity toilet that has anywhere near the flushing power of the new ones.
They’re fooling nobody but themselves. And this is some major topic drift.
Wouldn’t be surprised if there are some folks down there in the north woods saying “Give me my real doll and gravity flush or give me death!” Up here, we just use bears and multi-hole outhouses ('cause we’re socialists).
Jesus Christ, Zager and Evans were right. :smack: Zager? Evans? If you’re reading this…YOU WERE RIGHT!
While it is technically a standing law, and the courts haven’t struck it down yet, the fact that the courts have not specifically ruled on it does not make it any more legal.
If the congress passed a law that restricted criticism of the government, that law would be illegal too, and the courts’ actions or lack thereof wouldn’t change the illegality of that law.
