    I think being able to flush paper is the exception, not the rule in Europe, particularly the further east or out of a touristy areas you go. The older sections of cities have some really ancient plumbing systems.

    You had better pay your guild dues before you forget. You are 113 months behind.

    I haven't been everywhere in Europe, of course, but I really didn't run into any "don't flush TP" things. Even in those really old buildings I'm Rome.

    Water from sink, do not use on face! as per Front Desk
    That's not exactly uncommon around the world.

    No, it's a "our plumbing isn't up to American standards" thing. Worked in a place with some goddamn Haitians that couldn't get it in their heads that we flush the TP here and they instead used the garbage can. It was a bit annoying seeing their shit-stained TP in the trash.

    Was this before or after you (pelvic) thrusted your assault machine rifle gun at them?

    Look at Mr. Tough Guy over here. One minute he has no idea what color the water is and the next he thinks he's an expert water color person. We got ourselves a water color expert here, folks! Everyone make way for the expert!

    I'm kinda glad he showed up, to be honest. I always wondered what color to call the toilet water after beer brats with sauerkraut. Now I know.

    I'll admit that it's nice to finally be recognized.
