These two can be remedied by placing a layer of toilet paper on the shelf before shitting on it. When flushing there is much less resistance (and fewer skidmarks)

All European toilets have the odor issue since y'all have barely any water in them

I'm not cleaning my bottom by splashing it with excrement water. The kiss of Poseidon is disgusting.

VGH, the poopenßelffe of Deutschland...

no, they don't. even though might you find them occasionally, the vast majority of german toilets are "normal". in fact, i cannot remember the last time i saw a shelved toilet in germany. maybe it's a norf vs souf thing and there aren't that many of them in the south, idk. i think the ratio of shelved toilets is higher in austria.

I see them all the time in Austria.

are austrians the jews of dach? they are always responsible for the funny german stuff (wars, leaders, toilets, etc), yet every time it's germany that somehow gets the blame while they get off scot-free.
