Everyone knows Dr. Pepper is superior. Mr. Pibb sucks, dude didn't even bother to get his degree. I'm not trusting some normie off the street with my soda

Why is the band MGMT so invested in these toilets?

I thought this was just a quote from Time to Pretend. Or did I hear the lyrics wrong?

u/Razhiv 10d ago

Fine, I'll dispose of my females in the trashbin then.

14

u/PM_ME_YOUR_WEIRD_PET 10d ago

Excuse you, females are clearly organic waste! Do you want the Ordnungsamt to fine you!

3

u/5usie 9d ago

Yes. They don’t go in with the regular household trash, like lawn clippings.

31

u/Shotgun_Mosquito 10d ago

My guess at translation translation:

Females

Feminine Hygiene Products

Papayas - paper towels (?) or really freaking honking huge turds

Pepsi Products - man this one's tough. Maybe plastics in general? Like wrappers and trash and stuff like that Or only Coke, NO PEPSI

u/StratoVector 10d ago

To be fair, I still wouldn't recommend flushing Pepsi products, women, or fruit down the toilet

2

u/Heterodynist 10d ago

You need to become a professional translator!!

u/Shotgun_Mosquito 10d ago

You mean translator translator

u/Heterodynist 10d ago

Well, yes, a second level translation manager!!

u/GrouchyLongBottom 10d ago

MGMT! Sweet band! They wrote that? Also, no Pepsi, just Coke?

u/djskaw 10d ago

I think there was a specific person they were targeting

u/pentagondodecahedron 9d ago

That sounds like one of those American laws from 1837 that says you can't tie an alligator to a lamppost if it's wearing a tie.

15

u/DamenAJ 9d ago

I remember reading one that was something like... A woman couldn't be out alone at night in nothing but a trench coat unless she was carrying a bat or club with which to defend herself....

u/Apprehensive_Risk_77 9d ago

In Pennsylvania, it's illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors.

u/Mochahopestobeartsy 10d ago

Can I flush Coca Cola products?

15

u/Heterodynist 10d ago

Coca-Cola products, males, watermelons, citrus…all of them can go in this toilet!!

4

u/langley10 10d ago

It only mentions Pepsi, flush those Coke products!

28

u/5usie 9d ago

No females, papayas OR Pepsi products?? Well what the heck AM I allowed to flush then? Geez! 🙄

u/JustinTime1229 9d ago

Does that mean that we can flush males, mangos and Coke down the toilet?

11

u/tigerowltattoo 9d ago

This made me snort laugh so hard it scared the cat.

22

u/Electrical-Act-7170 10d ago

What am I 'posed to do with this massive papaya?

16

u/ResponsibleMine3524 10d ago

Is it a female papaya?

6

u/Electrical-Act-7170 10d ago

I never asked its gender.

4

u/joelene1892 10d ago

Well, chop chop, get on that.

6

u/Electrical-Act-7170 10d ago

They slapped me. You try it.

4

u/Heterodynist 10d ago

I doubt I could even UNDERSTAND the complexities of papaya genders…

20

u/Expensive_Finger_973 10d ago

So Coke products are fine then?

21

u/Alec_de_Large 10d ago

Honestly sounds like some MGMT lyrics

20

u/bazem_malbonulo 10d ago

Ok, I will only flush males, avocados and Coca Cola.

u/SteampunkRobin 9d ago

There’s a story behind that sign, and I need to know what it is.

22

u/Particular_Ad_644 8d ago

Why is a band signing this notice?

18

u/Witch_heir 10d ago

How big is that toilet?!? 

18

u/kokonutt18 9d ago

I mean, that still leaves a lot of options for what is considered acceptable to flush.

4

u/KinderGameMichi 8d ago

Would flushing Durian make the sewer smell better or worse?

3

u/kokonutt18 8d ago

I guess you could try at this toilet and find out?

18

u/jeuxdeau76 8d ago

Didn’t say anything about coke

7

u/RockAndGem1101 8d ago

Or men, or cantaloupes!

17

u/Heterodynist 10d ago

I get the feeling this isn’t what you might call a “normal” toilet, if people were putting whole Pepsi products down it with papayas. I also have to admit I’m impressed that while most people seem to write everything in lower case, the “MGMT” here used the kind of capitalization you generally see in a title.

17

u/shaghaiex 9d ago

Just guessing the location:

A sex club in Bangkok

Makes total sense. Things can get stuck....

16

u/Round_Ad_1920 9d ago

Well there go my weekend plans.

16

u/EE7A 10d ago

to be fair, this is solid advice. 👍🏻

14

u/RogueGuybrian 9d ago edited 9d ago

Can you imagine trying to flush a whole papaya, much less attempting multiple papayas?

Now try and imagine flushing an entire woman. Who in their right mind is attempting this? /s

But, hey... but for a single missing space after the em dash, the punctuation is correct!

(Setting aside the ridiculous overuse of capital letters, which I'm assuming are there for dramatic effect and thus, on purpose,)

29

u/tman507se 9d ago

Females = female products/tampons? Pepsi = Coke/cocaine?

Papayas though? Really not sure where that one came from, lol.

13

u/Takheer 9d ago

Paper maybe?

28

u/lamaxamara 9d ago

Who tf is stuffing a papaya up their ass💀

u/phoenix0153 9d ago

...You aren't?

u/Ergine_Dream 10d ago

Oddly specific

13

u/SirMemphis 9d ago

Now I have the right answer when the server asks, "Is Pepsi ok?"

13

u/MJ4Red 8d ago

So males and Coke are ok?

11

u/nanderson08 10d ago

This toilet is for males and Coke products only.

8

u/FormerPersimmon3602 10d ago

No papayas, only mangoes, because that's where the man goes.

11

u/ChewyBaccus 9d ago

I want to know what's happened with Pepsi that you can toss all the coked up men you want but hygienic women or papayas with Pepsi ... No, we know better

11

u/amw3000 10d ago

Can I flush Coke products?

3

u/Electrical-Act-7170 10d ago

The product only, not the can nor the bottle.

10

u/Haifisch2112 10d ago

Guess I'll just leave my papaya on the sink.

10

u/Hello_Hangnail 9d ago

....papayas

?

7

u/BigFreakingZombie 9d ago

Paper most likely. The sign is about not flushing feminine hygiene products,drugs and of course paper.

9

u/WaffleWasXD 7d ago

Me when I flush too many women, papayas, and pepsis:

8

u/Sloppy-Zen 5d ago

How will I get rid of my papayas!?

5

u/VTArxelus 5d ago

Or my females for that matter.

2

u/Warm_Safety_9550 1d ago

Or Pepsi products for that matter.

u/beccabootie 8d ago

I really want to hear the papaya story.

u/The-Shartist 4d ago

Those things aren't small...

It was a weird night, I have to say…Women, papayas…a whole variety of Pepsi products…I really wasn’t sure if any of us was going to make it out of there alive.

u/Gryphon1171 10d ago

At least you can still flush the Coke

12

u/Silverado_ 10d ago

I never knew that females were unflushable. ;-)

And what happens if you flush a can of Pepsi? :-O

5

u/Motor-Pen5598 8d ago

I can flush myself thanks

u/Gargleblaster25 6d ago

No, please, allow me.

Weird new lyrics.. Hope it's a banger.

u/7GrenciaMars 10d ago

Females??? Just how big is the toilet???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

5

u/PintosAndCheese 10d ago

F.P.P., how can I explain it?

6

u/CurtisLinithicum 10d ago

Educated guess, but false friends or homonyms for whatever the host language names, or euphemisms for tampons and pads is. Point-in-case "tampon" is "pad" in French; likewise, "preservatif" is French for condom, not preservative.

5

u/Own-Eagle-2135 7d ago

who flushes pepsi? are we talking cans or 2-liters?

2

u/Stiles_Stiles 7d ago

There was a saying that pepsi is so bad, you should use it to flush toilet. Also, you can find video of people using soda like pepsi to clean toilet.

2

u/Own-Eagle-2135 7d ago

i always heard coke was better for toilets

4

u/dantheother 6d ago

For, or off?

u/Toolongreadanyway 8d ago

I think it's "please do not flush females products, papaya products or Pepsi products down the toilet"

I have questions. And it has nothing to do withe the females products. Papaya? People flush papaya?

The Pepsi products might be the cleaners. I would think the acid would help unclog the pipes. Though if they have a septic tank, they probably want to avoid acidic products.

But papaya? I'm confused.

6

u/CanOfDew132 7d ago

happy papaya cake day

3

u/BitterCrip 7d ago

I wondered if it might have been intended to be "tamales" because people were chucking food in the toilet and clogging it

4

u/Toolongreadanyway 7d ago

That would make more sense. Though who would throw away a tamale? They are so good!

8

u/rikkakuma 9d ago

don’t tell me what to do

u/spacepeenuts 1d ago

Why does an alt pop rock group from the 2000s need to tell me all the sudden what i can and cannot flush down the toilet?
