How Would You React?

These pictures were sent to me in an email.

Here's a ceiling mural in a smoker's lounge. Would it be enough to stop you from smoking?



Imagine you are at a party on the tenth floor of a high rise building, and you visit the bathroom. You open the door ... Remember, this is just a painted floor! Would you be able to function?



This is a picture of the outside of a public toilet in Houston.



Here's the inside, made entirely of one-way glass.

I totally wouldn't be able to go to the bathroom in that public bathroom! :(( My knees would be shaking! :((

jlshall said...

Wow! Public toilets in Houston? Well, that's a surprise. But the one-way glass is sort of an abomination. And since I have a real problem with heights (as well as privacy issues), I wouldn't even be able to enter the high rise loo.

Happy Friday

I love these!! I would NOT be able to use that restroom! Not on your life!!

I think the ceiling mural would really work to stop smoking if there were audio, sound, with the people shouting "No Smoking for your health!"

No, I couldn't use this bathroom. It looks like a bathroom in an institution where people aren't compassionate.

sara said...

I could not use either bathroom!! and the idea for the smokers lounge....cleaver!!

Unknown said...

I've seen these before, they still amaze me!

Even after 3 kids and a weak bladder I don't think I could pee in either of those :0)
I'd love to paint that on the ceiling of my son's room if I knew it would help him quit!
Hope all the packing is going well Sally!

Needled Mom said...

These are great. What talent the artists must have.

April said...

Wow, Sally, those are so incredible!

bj said...

Oh, boy....that bath with the painted floor....I'd either pee right then and there or dry up like a prune. lol
I haven't been over in awhile...lots going on here, too.
Hope all the packing is done...or almost done, by now. The 18th isn't very far away now.
The good thing is that we will all still be able to blog...no matter where we go! :)

I have seen these paintings before and I think they are amazing!!!! I just don't think I could use the toilet with the one way glass....you just never know.....

LV said...

I got a kick out of your post today as these are not my style of outhouses. You did good!

Barbara H. said...

I've seen some of these before. I'd have a really hard time using the bathroom where the floor looks like sky or that public one.

SNOWING? SNOWING? You must have missed reading my sticky post at the top, dear one...:)

LOL
Oh Sally you are always good for the unusual and thought provoking all at the same time.
I must confess I am selfish enough to hope there are no hitches with the moving process.
I really could not stand a moment without your fun blog to visit. :)
Thank you for the great post today .
Have a happy and blessed weekend.
Happy Trails
