I don’t know why, but this big complex pipe structure was situated above the urinal. When you flush, the red light goes off and the green light goes on, and all the pressure dials start going crazy.

      Well somebody installed it, of course, but the place is currently the storefront of a noodle shop that used to be a food cart. My guess is it wasn’t them, but it feels like the ratio of probable cost to value is way out of wack for any restaurant unless this somehow fit into an aesthetic somehow.

      Edit: It used to be called “Industrial Cafe and Saloon”, and had an industrial/metal theme. Which does, indeed, explain this.

    This is not a urinal, this is an inter-dimensional time space teleportation device

    That’s an awesome Rube Goldberg machine of a pisser.

    Hopefully whoever built that will make a version for the Chinese sperm extractor machine next.

        Or here? What could awaken the caveman in you better than taking the piss on a gently flowing stream of water tumbling down a rock wall?

      This is not a McMenamins. :( And it doesn’t appear to have actually been one in the past…?
