Hey Rachel and Jun I hope you're all doing well I love your channel I've been sub to you for a very long time now and your cats make me laugh so much I just wanted to say thanks to Jun from making those videos about cooking I actually made some of them and it turned out to be really good my family was impressed in the US, I don't want to sign note I hope one day I can to find a young lady like Rachel who's absolutely beautiful and smart and not stuck up you're one lucky guy Jun💑
In my country its fifty-fifty, like some places (shopping malls and cultural centers) have to the ground, but others (mostly schools) don't. Depends on the location and you're lucky even sometimes if some places have at all.

Yes Japan has good train network! It's just the right size to support a large amount of trains like the UK, however the UK doesn't have the rail management skills for trains to ever be on time
It's so funny, I always heard Aussies complain about bathroom doors in America. It wasn't until I moved to Thailand that I realized how right they were - and how basically EVERY OTHER CIVILIZED PLACE IN THE WORLD has bathroom doors that are full doors without visible space along the sides. Why, America? Why??!
Jessica Nurack I wonder the same thing! I have a horror story. I walked into a two stall bathroom and one stall was occupied so I went into the bigger one. It smelled unbearably of vinegar. I was uncomfortable and kept watching the open bottom of the stall. Then. THEN! All of a sudden her legs left her pants and disappeared.. My heart dropped. I looked at the gap at the top expecting some crazy woman to be staring at me. Or the ring girl.. But no. Phew. Thank God. =( I hate our public bathrooms. Always had.
It's cheaper and it's also for safety reasons. If someone has a medical issue and loses consciousness than it would be noticed much more quickly than if you enclose the whole thing.
One time a kid crawled under the bathroom stall door and I screamed " omg! get the fuck out!" out of pure shock and first instinct, and guess what? The dad freaking berated me for cursing out his son and told me to go back to my own country( he didn't see me but he can tell I got an accent)............ I was literally speechless.
Dads just don't know how to act in public honestly, white dads in particular. I worked in a candy store after high school and a little boy came in and broke a 40 dollar novelty mug. His dad blamed us for "putting it too close to the edge of the shelf" and walked out refusing to pay for it. Any mom would have have apologized profusely and immediately offered to pay. I swear it's like they never leave the house with their children.
@@necordektox879 I’ve dealt with plenty of racist older white women yes. As usual, I think people are using that term wayyyy outside of it’s originally intended context. In the context of my retail jobs, nope never. But I’m Canadian so 🤷🏽♀️
I must admit, I'm not from Japan I'm from England but when I have been to America the toilet stall doors got me. You could do the limbo under those things, it's crazy!
There are some restaurants that I have been to that have full doors and it's like a room for the toilet. I think some are catching on, but the rest need to do the same. I have to wonder if it's about money and their design is a cheaper alternative. I don't like the stall doors and I would rather have a full door flushed.
That's lucky; my school didn't have those. I had to wait at least until someone washed their hands, but normally I wait for someone else to flush lol it's odd
Or they can just damn well deal with it. If they leave, good. I can have uncalled for upset belly in more privacy; I do try to minimize any sound but sometimes that just isnt going to happen despite efforts. I cannot and will not force further discomfort to myself just because "but people will hear me!"
@@ShadowSkyX True but some people have anxiety including me especially if there are unisex bathrooms and it’s that time of the month for me it’s just awkward I’m like “it’s fine it’s not a big deal” but it gets uncomfortable
sometimes I just say "fuck it" and do my business when there's another person in the bathroom. ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE BASIC WHITE GIRLS WHO HAVE PHONE CALLS IN THE BATHROOM?!
I looked it up, and it seems that the reason Apagard isn't available in the US is because the patent for the active agents in the product was bought, then immediately removed from the shelves. I'm assuming this is because it worked too well and would drive other products out of business. Glad it's at least available on Amazon.
“Public toilets can play flushing noises if you are embarrassed and don’t want others to hear you use the bathroom” this might be the most considerate thing I have ever seen ;;
Your hair is so beautiful! In the 1960s and 70s, straight hair was popular among American teens. But we had no straightening perm and hot straighteners didn't work well. Solution: We put our long hair on an ironing board and our mothers ironed it.
I love how Rachel's method of convincing you to get the products is her usual craziness with cuts to cat footage, whereas Jun pitches the products like it's Shark Tank. It's perfection.
As someone from a major city I appreciate how clean and quiet the train station is. Also, I love how dark alleys are the best thing here. Go down an alley in Chicago and get robbed. Go down an alley in Japan and find a new restaurant or bar!
That's the understatement of the century. Bluntly put (Even Trump agrees with me on that ) US has regressed to developing nation status. A third world country. There's still hope though...
what the hell is a fahrenheit that they keep talking about ? and why is 9/11 written like 9/11 when it happened in september not november??? I used to think 9/11 happened on the 9th of november??? whyyyy
Because the US is the only country to insist on using mm-dd-yyyy. Why? Beats me.It's like their way to say, "we're better than you because we're different" .
dimsumboy22 but America is so gigantic. you can be in California and Florida and New York would be very distant places but still very similar. while going to mexico is so close yet so different

You can buy this little water sound generator on amazon (from Japan) that you can stick on the wall of your bathroom and just press the button when you need to
@@jonathanvincent5348 Southwest Florida is a nightmare, especially in summer, it's pretty common to have about 95°F there, sometimes even over 100°F, but the humidity, that's where it gets so much worse It can feel over 120°F with humidity under certain conditions
it reminds me of one of those viral videos where a little boy enter a bathroom stall while somebody is shitting, asking him to help washing his hands. it cracks me up every time lol
I 100% complain about the fact that we don't have pictures and/or at least menus outside of restaurants here ALL THE TIME! WHY CAN'T WE AT LEAST PUT OUT A MENU!?
I'm a picky eater, and sometimes I'm even afraid ordering something normal like a hamburger from a restaurant. Each place is different, and ok I know it might sound silly, but I go off of looks for food because it's faster determining whether or not the food would taste good. Like I'm chill with most food, but like tomatoes, mint, mayo, pork, coconut, certain cheeses, off the top of my head, I cant stand eating.
We're very lucky in the bay; as MOST places in San Francisco have their menus located outside. When I moved to the East Bay I was rather irritated that they didn't have them outside, and visiting home on the east coast? Good luck. Lol.
You apparently get a lot of the functionality by changing the seat. Amazon has such seats ranging from about $40 on up into the hundreds, though for anything heated or automated, you will likely also need to add a GFI electricaal outlet. The whole throne s are available from from $700 into the thousands.
@@MrThfknsamurai why? How would fluoride impede that? Fluoride helps to prevent tooth rot in the first place. I gurantee the toothpaste they were talking about has fluoride in it as well

Nexx 1 in japan, they have bidets in majority of their toilets and if for some unlucky reason that they dont, their toilets provide 2 types of toilet paper ( the normal and the eco- friendly one) in every stall To summarize, ya'll are missing out 😂😂😂
Gabrielle Uy American toilets don't have bidets but most have at least 2 rolls(they're both normal though), it just depends on how crowded the place is or how often they replace them
Yeah that's a benefit of a homogeneous culture that frowns on immigration, Japan is Japan because they don't want anyone messing with what they've built over the centuries.
I have wanted one of those amazing toilets forever. The toothpaste and the beautiful straight perm are both amazing! My hair frizzes like crazy. I am definitely ordering the toothpaste right away!
They have the button and bell noise thing in New Zealand. And you don't have to tip either. And our bathroom doors close all the way round too. We also have those fluffy mattress things. And we have the straight perm.
Oh whatever in America we have decent people I cant believe you and all the other people from Japan don't have the kindness in your hearts to have true respect for anyone but yourself that's ridiculous ur just jealous we are free to do what we want and ur country is flawed
@@amoryhasafford7585 I'm from Vietnam, but your racist heart doesn't have the respect to look that up, and I'm also a US citizen, since my father is a citizen before I was born. I am not jealous of your playground of guns, but instead looking at people like you who thinks freedom of speech means you can say anything you want without knowing that freedom of speech doesn't come with a freedom of consequences. I've been living in the US for almost my entire life, before I was even enrolled in school, and attending a Civics class that focuses on US laws and government. You really need to know that you aren't being kind, nor respectful, which makes you an absolute hypocrite that can't use basic grammar to start a fight on the internet. Next time, don't be such a hypocrite that it supports what I just said; "Decent people."
Phong Huynh I am actually truly sorry I didn't understand fully what you where saying I thought u meant people in america are always rude which isn't true instead of a lot of people in America are violent which is true let's be honest I am sorry if I offended you and I hope you except my apology and also I do not agree with people having guns if it isn't necessary or if it is like not a hand gun I think we can't get rid of every bad person so for now we just gotta live with it one more thing if anything I love Asian people black people and any other race I come by but that doesn't mean I can't have my opinion about one person that has affected the way I see people I love alllllll races
@@_phong.huynh_ please, you don't go out enough to meet decent people. Stop wasting your time on the people who don't appreciate you. I met tons of decent people of many races. It's the Vietnamese I experienced the most racism.
You're not wrong. Well...occasionally I come across one but not too often. 🤦🏼♀️ Plenty of 'nice' people but 'nice' doesn't = 'decent'. (I don't think many people get that tho.)
I am moving to Japan. That's it. I am moving. Just for the toilet seat covers alone. When people ask why I moved I will say "Rachel and Jun showed me a miracle. Fluffy toilet seat covers!"
You forgot their greatest invention that has taken countless victims - the kotatsu. Once the kotatsu takes you in its warm embrace, you can never leave it.
i Seriously was surprised they didn't mention these. Like why don't we have these in the colder area's of America! I wanna fall asleep on a snowy day under warm kotatsu.
the stall door thing is a problem in Australia when I was -in grade- 5, a guy crawled under my draw and then opened it up for everybody in the bathroom to see me I have had to deal with SO MANY KIDS looking under doors! one of them even started screaming! my friends have never had to deal with this so maybe in just unlucky? anyway- never go to a public bathroom Edit: I accidentally said grade 5, I was 5 years old in prep (idk what people would call it overseas)
There's actually more than those types in America. We've got natural cat litters in pellet form (paper or pine) natural clumping cat liters (made of walnuts or corn) the ball type that's ingredients are mostly chemical as well as the clumping clay litters. Each of those usual has several different brands and a few different options like scented or not scented. Clumping clay is cheapest (but it's actually made out of rare clay so that could change one day) and generally stocked more places but if you care about your cats health or litter box habits you quickly find a location that sells the other types. Kroger or Tractor Supply stock a good smattering of them or go to a dedicated pet store like Petsmart which will generally have a larger stock of litters on hand than other locations that only have one or half a shelf dedicated to feline defication.
Okay but Rachel’s makeup has been on point recently, like girl what shadow you using?! 😂 also I constantly have little kids and grown adults just stare at me through the bathroom stall cracks.
ALL THE COLOURPOP I just take every gold and red and orange I have and throw it all on there. Every single time. This is my daily makeup now, I go out like I think I'm cool painting my eyes like a phoenix here in my tiny town of Japanese grandmas and grandpas.

I actually worked as a waitress for a while so I know, physically and spiritually, the pain of having to try to entertain people as an awkward af teen to make up for the rest of my wages.
One of the main reasons why tipping should be banned. In addition, I feel that there's one thing that America also needs from Japan that should be a big thing, GUN CONTROL LAWS!
I have no idea why America still does this when they could just raise the prices of the food or include a service charge in the receipt and take the hassle off of everyone involved.
Sorry, can't get behind fuzzy toilet seat covers. The amount of fecal matter that's gets sprayed I to the air with every flush is nasty. Don't need a fuzzy toilet seat to collect most of it for me to sit on. I'll deal with cold seats any day
people often think toilet is dirty, but actually door's handle, phone, keyboard, and any other stuff we touch but don't think it is dirty or clean it often are dirtier than the toilet
America’s public bathroom doors are soo horrible. you don’t even get a kid looking from underneath, they can see you from the 1inch side slits you guys have I felt more privacy doing it in the woods than a civilised toilet
Korea has restaurant call buttons also. I happened to be at a Japanese restaurant in Daegu, Korea. After browsing the menu for a few minutes, I was ready to give my order. I waited. And waited. And waited. . . I started to get really irate. I thought "Where the hell is the wait staff?" Just when I was on the verge of storming out, I noticed the call button on the table. It was a genuine "Doh!" moment. :)
Korea also has the special toilets with bidets and certain places, often times shopping malls, will have them as well! Call buttons are a lifesaver honestly, I wonder why America hasn't thought of them.
Rachel: describes an American black woman perm (that basically, every black woman used from the 1910s until the rise of natural hair) Also Rachel: It's uncommon in America Me: chuckles in black girl
Its actually completely different as what African American women did/ have been doing is SOOO bad for your hair. Watch her original video as she describes the differences.
@@bumblebeehappy Bees I understand that it's different since I'm a black girl living in Japan. But she acts like the concept of straightening perm is an entirely new construct only found in Japan. And in her follow up video where she mentions relaxers, it seems like she still didn't understand what it is, since she said they weren't permanent. I'm just amazed by white Americans' complete obliviousness of African American culture. We've been in America for hundreds of years. I get really interesting questions from Japanese people that shock me, but I'm sure I'm the first black person they have ever met. I have nothing against Rachel. This page helped me adjust to life in Japan. I just find it amusing. That's why I said "chuckles in black girl"
@@Nisha_Chantel it's possible she grew up in an area where she wasn't exposed to black culture. There are many parts of America that simply have such a low black population that it's not really something white girls would know. I've lived in both areas and in-between. I don't believe she's trying to be rude, she probably just didn't get exposed to it. America has a lot of different cultures in different areas, not every American will be exposed to it all.
I'm not too fond of the fuzzy covers on a toilet seat. You would have to clean it every week. Where as I can clean the toilet seat easily with spray every day.... Not that I do. It's still once a week. But I can't tell if it's clean or not....gargh lol
#3: I emigrated to the US from the UK and I found the massive gaps in the bathroom stalls to be a pretty big culture shock and hard to get used to. I still don't like it! We have the same kind of stalls in the UK but they manage to put them together without leaving enough space for kids to climb in. Which... has happened to me too.... I remember one time I peed in a loo at a tourist site in the US where the stall sides were so high off the ground you could literally have seen my butt from the entrance. Didn't realise until I sat down and looked under. FORTUNATELY there was nobody else in the bathroom that time!
Cat litter has changed a lot overseas! America has multiple types of litter now. There’s still clay, but also walnut, paper, wood, etc. I used to work in a pet store so I was amazed to see so many different types now!
I live in America my friend carries a legit curtain in her backpack with magnets to attaches to bathroom stall just so people can't see through the cracks 😂
Agrees, Karōshi is a real problem.,. If not with all the bad sides, I might have thought about it as well.,. Not to mention that moving to another nation will Always mean that you are a second class citizen.,. In short, it means you will need to work always that much harder to proof yourself.,.
How horrified could he have been... most of the outlying areas in Egypt don't have plumbing. In addition, its one of the poorest countries in the world whose people regularly go days without bathing. Perhaps the horror was misplaced?
Bidets are cleaner but you need to clean them after use so its sanitary, if possible with bleach or products that clean it profusely because poop and pee. And almost NO ONE DOES THAT??? They just let water run???? At least in Argentina that's what I saw and know of, unless you are in a hotel, motel or hospital. Tp is faster, and less bothersome to use. It really depends on what you like though.
At 1:17 the reason they keep that part open is for ex: you can see if some has fainted on the floor and needs help you can crawl under the door to get to them. So it’s for safety if they need to get in there they can just crawl under the door to get there without having to bust down the door and it’s cheeper.
Toilet seat covers were a thing in America... back in the 60s and early 70s. I view them as something only a grandmother would want... because those were the only people in my family that ever had them.
@jetfowl said _"Toilet seat covers were a thing in America... back in the 60s and early 70s"_ I've never seen an American one that was as well made as what Rachel was showing though. All the ones I've seen seemed to dry out, crack, and start pinching in a week or they were wood and gross in a week.

"You can use flushing sounds if you don't want anyone to hear you"
*In school I always have to wait until someone uses the hand dryers* ;(
That's lucky; my school didn't have those. I had to wait at least until someone washed their hands, but normally I wait for someone else to flush lol it's odd
Or they can just damn well deal with it. If they leave, good. I can have uncalled for upset belly in more privacy; I do try to minimize any sound but sometimes that just isnt going to happen despite efforts. I cannot and will not force further discomfort to myself just because "but people will hear me!"
@@ShadowSkyX True but some people have anxiety including me especially if there are unisex bathrooms and it’s that time of the month for me it’s just awkward I’m like “it’s fine it’s not a big deal” but it gets uncomfortable
sometimes I just say "fuck it" and do my business when there's another person in the bathroom. ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE BASIC WHITE GIRLS WHO HAVE PHONE CALLS IN THE BATHROOM?!
“They come and do the thing, and then they leave” 😭😂😭😭
I need a call button for everyone in my life 🙈
I looked it up, and it seems that the reason Apagard isn't available in the US is because the patent for the active agents in the product was bought, then immediately removed from the shelves. I'm assuming this is because it worked too well and would drive other products out of business. Glad it's at least available on Amazon.
dont you juuust love capitalism......
“Public toilets can play flushing noises if you are embarrassed and don’t want others to hear you use the bathroom” this might be the most considerate thing I have ever seen ;;
Your hair is so beautiful! In the 1960s and 70s, straight hair was popular among American teens. But we had no straightening perm and hot straighteners didn't work well. Solution: We put our long hair on an ironing board and our mothers ironed it.
Wait really? That’s crazy!!!

How is it different from a Thermacell?
I 100% complain about the fact that we don't have pictures and/or at least menus outside of restaurants here ALL THE TIME! WHY CAN'T WE AT LEAST PUT OUT A MENU!?
exactly, especially for my group of friends if we cant see what they have on the menu its pretty discouraging to trying out new restaurants
Don't get me started on the high end places with menus with no prices
Yeah, I'm vegan so I want to know what's on the menu before I go!
AND THERE ARE RESTAURANTS WITHOUT PRICES LISTED!?
I'm a picky eater, and sometimes I'm even afraid ordering something normal like a hamburger from a restaurant. Each place is different, and ok I know it might sound silly, but I go off of looks for food because it's faster determining whether or not the food would taste good. Like I'm chill with most food, but like tomatoes, mint, mayo, pork, coconut, certain cheeses, off the top of my head, I cant stand eating.
We're very lucky in the bay; as MOST places in San Francisco have their menus located outside. When I moved to the East Bay I was rather irritated that they didn't have them outside, and visiting home on the east coast? Good luck. Lol.

If the stall doors go all the way to the floor how do you pass your neighbour much needed toilet paper
Nexx 1 in japan, they have bidets in majority of their toilets and if for some unlucky reason that they dont, their toilets provide 2 types of toilet paper ( the normal and the eco- friendly one) in every stall
To summarize, ya'll are missing out 😂😂😂
Gabrielle Uy American toilets don't have bidets but most have at least 2 rolls(they're both normal though), it just depends on how crowded the place is or how often they replace them

- Decent People
Oh whatever in America we have decent people I cant believe you and all the other people from Japan don't have the kindness in your hearts to have true respect for anyone but yourself that's ridiculous ur just jealous we are free to do what we want and ur country is flawed
@@amoryhasafford7585 I'm from Vietnam, but your racist heart doesn't have the respect to look that up, and I'm also a US citizen, since my father is a citizen before I was born. I am not jealous of your playground of guns, but instead looking at people like you who thinks freedom of speech means you can say anything you want without knowing that freedom of speech doesn't come with a freedom of consequences.
I've been living in the US for almost my entire life, before I was even enrolled in school, and attending a Civics class that focuses on US laws and government. You really need to know that you aren't being kind, nor respectful, which makes you an absolute hypocrite that can't use basic grammar to start a fight on the internet. Next time, don't be such a hypocrite that it supports what I just said; "Decent people."
Phong Huynh I am actually truly sorry I didn't understand fully what you where saying I thought u meant people in america are always rude which isn't true instead of a lot of people in America are violent which is true let's be honest I am sorry if I offended you and I hope you except my apology and also I do not agree with people having guns if it isn't necessary or if it is like not a hand gun I think we can't get rid of every bad person so for now we just gotta live with it one more thing if anything I love Asian people black people and any other race I come by but that doesn't mean I can't have my opinion about one person that has affected the way I see people I love alllllll races
@@_phong.huynh_ please, you don't go out enough to meet decent people. Stop wasting your time on the people who don't appreciate you.
I met tons of decent people of many races. It's the Vietnamese I experienced the most racism.
You're not wrong. Well...occasionally I come across one but not too often. 🤦🏼♀️ Plenty of 'nice' people but 'nice' doesn't = 'decent'. (I don't think many people get that tho.)

my friends have never had to deal with this so maybe in just unlucky?
anyway- never go to a public bathroom

#8 Not only Japan, Europe has different cant litter materials too. :-)
So does Australia.
In california at least i can find natural cat litter that looks like like pellets
Sweet Archangel
And Canada
And Alaska ( I class Alaska as part of Russia)
There's actually more than those types in America. We've got natural cat litters in pellet form (paper or pine) natural clumping cat liters (made of walnuts or corn) the ball type that's ingredients are mostly chemical as well as the clumping clay litters. Each of those usual has several different brands and a few different options like scented or not scented. Clumping clay is cheapest (but it's actually made out of rare clay so that could change one day) and generally stocked more places but if you care about your cats health or litter box habits you quickly find a location that sells the other types. Kroger or Tractor Supply stock a good smattering of them or go to a dedicated pet store like Petsmart which will generally have a larger stock of litters on hand than other locations that only have one or half a shelf dedicated to feline defication.

AMERICA
LEARN FROM THIS
Rachel and Jun it's because in America their paid minimum wage and that's no were near enough to live off of so they rely on people tipping them
I actually worked as a waitress for a while so I know, physically and spiritually, the pain of having to try to entertain people as an awkward af teen to make up for the rest of my wages.
One of the main reasons why tipping should be banned. In addition, I feel that there's one thing that America also needs from Japan that should be a big thing, GUN CONTROL LAWS!
I have no idea why America still does this when they could just raise the prices of the food or include a service charge in the receipt and take the hassle off of everyone involved.

Sorry, can't get behind fuzzy toilet seat covers. The amount of fecal matter that's gets sprayed I to the air with every flush is nasty. Don't need a fuzzy toilet seat to collect most of it for me to sit on. I'll deal with cold seats any day
You already get fecal matter on your bum when you flush/sit on the toilet anyway. This is why people shower daily. But to each to their own, I guess.
the toilets are diffrent in japan tho-
I agree I mean it would be good for old folks
people often think toilet is dirty, but actually door's handle, phone, keyboard, and any other stuff we touch but don't think it is dirty or clean it often are dirtier than the toilet
Jenny Livingston or you could get a heat seat they sell them it japan
America’s public bathroom doors are soo horrible. you don’t even get a kid looking from underneath, they can see you from the 1inch side slits you guys have
I felt more privacy doing it in the woods than a civilised toilet
Korea has restaurant call buttons also. I happened to be at a Japanese restaurant in Daegu, Korea. After browsing the menu for a few minutes, I was ready to give my order. I waited. And waited. And waited. . . I started to get really irate. I thought "Where the hell is the wait staff?" Just when I was on the verge of storming out, I noticed the call button on the table. It was a genuine "Doh!" moment. :)
Korea also has the special toilets with bidets and certain places, often times shopping malls, will have them as well! Call buttons are a lifesaver honestly, I wonder why America hasn't thought of them.
William Ferguson I was about to comment about that😂
That would be really nice to have a call but no at the table

Me: chuckles in black girl
Chantel Jathan thank you lol
i'm white and i was thinking the same thing lol
Its actually completely different as what African American women did/ have been doing is SOOO bad for your hair. Watch her original video as she describes the differences.
@@bumblebeehappy Bees I understand that it's different since I'm a black girl living in Japan. But she acts like the concept of straightening perm is an entirely new construct only found in Japan. And in her follow up video where she mentions relaxers, it seems like she still didn't understand what it is, since she said they weren't permanent. I'm just amazed by white Americans' complete obliviousness of African American culture. We've been in America for hundreds of years. I get really interesting questions from Japanese people that shock me, but I'm sure I'm the first black person they have ever met. I have nothing against Rachel. This page helped me adjust to life in Japan. I just find it amusing. That's why I said "chuckles in black girl"
@@Nisha_Chantel it's possible she grew up in an area where she wasn't exposed to black culture. There are many parts of America that simply have such a low black population that it's not really something white girls would know. I've lived in both areas and in-between. I don't believe she's trying to be rude, she probably just didn't get exposed to it. America has a lot of different cultures in different areas, not every American will be exposed to it all.

#3: I emigrated to the US from the UK and I found the massive gaps in the bathroom stalls to be a pretty big culture shock and hard to get used to. I still don't like it! We have the same kind of stalls in the UK but they manage to put them together without leaving enough space for kids to climb in. Which... has happened to me too....
I remember one time I peed in a loo at a tourist site in the US where the stall sides were so high off the ground you could literally have seen my butt from the entrance. Didn't realise until I sat down and looked under. FORTUNATELY there was nobody else in the bathroom that time!
Cat litter has changed a lot overseas! America has multiple types of litter now. There’s still clay, but also walnut, paper, wood, etc. I used to work in a pet store so I was amazed to see so many different types now!
I live in America my friend carries a legit curtain in her backpack with magnets to attaches to bathroom stall just so people can't see through the cracks 😂
Jade Bloom omg I like this idea! It's not just the USA though, other countries have the same issue.

Not quite as maximally clean. They go bidet, then toilet paper.
Paradoxical Nightmare Paper does not remove it all, inevitably you are just rubbing some of it dry into the skin.
Paradoxical Nightmare lol seriously using bidets are cleaner. The best thing
How horrified could he have been... most of the outlying areas in Egypt don't have plumbing. In addition, its one of the poorest countries in the world whose people regularly go days without bathing. Perhaps the horror was misplaced?
Bidets are cleaner but you need to clean them after use so its sanitary, if possible with bleach or products that clean it profusely because poop and pee. And almost NO ONE DOES THAT??? They just let water run????
At least in Argentina that's what I saw and know of, unless you are in a hotel, motel or hospital.
Tp is faster, and less bothersome to use. It really depends on what you like though.
Moral of the video: study abroad in Japan to get yourself a Jun

At 1:17 the reason they keep that part open is for ex: you can see if some has fainted on the floor and needs help you can crawl under the door to get to them. So it’s for safety if they need to get in there they can just crawl under the door to get there without having to bust down the door and it’s cheeper.
Let's have a little bit of Japan everywhere!!! 🎉😁

Toilet seat covers were a thing in America... back in the 60s and early 70s.
I view them as something only a grandmother would want... because those were the only people in my family that ever had them.

I've never seen an American one that was as well made as what Rachel was showing though. All the ones I've seen seemed to dry out, crack, and start pinching in a week or they were wood and gross in a week.
@@LabGecko They were made of a shag carpet-type material.
@@jetfowl yeah, saw those but they were rare where I'm from. Too hot. Badly moulded weak vinyl was most common.
