Japanese Roulette

Tokyo

Japanese toilets often have electronic controls for a built in bidet function and to flush.
Water jets can be controlled in direction and pressure, and the temperature of the seat.
However, the instructions are in Japanese. Pressing the wrong button can result in an unintended face wash...

How fascinating! Love how Helen could translate. Hope you didn't push the wrong button.

LOL ~ what a funny toilet to come across!

What a great capture, shot at a good angle. The first one, oshiri, means bottom, so to speak, and yawaraka, the second, means soft or mild, perhaps having to do with force of the water. The last one is bidet, which is self explanatory.

Don't touch anything is the solution.
