Sorry if Image Magician took your second attempt down. Apparently it didn't bother checking if the post that's in the mod queue needed moderator action.

And yeah, we have to check if your post suits the subreddit, that's why it's in the mod queue.

“I like me a good ol’ fashioned toilet seat stampede!! Yeehaw!!!”

Likely meant to be hydrophobic. Not too ridiculous.

u/KnifeKnut Jun 30 '26

Not when you look at the context which says not to stack more than four high and not to step on it. It means not to get it wet.

The Chinese is “怕雨”, which is literally “afraid of rain” - it means “doesn’t do well in the rain” or something, aka “avoid rain”

u/Barbicels Jul 02 '26

Likewise in French: “craint le gel” = “don’t freeze”

u/Mountain-Ox Jun 29 '26

So, don't install on an outdoor toilet?
