Ok this is stupid but...
you know the public toilets where you have to put like 20p to get in.
Well I have never been in one and would never go in one as I believed when I was younger that you go to toilet and after uve finished the door opens and you have like a certain amount of time to leave before the door closes and washes the whole toilet throughout, if you dont get out in time, you get a pretty hard shower.
yuck
scaryyyy
