This is a very well-crafted and witty piece.
I would love one of those Japanese lavatory bowls, having used them in Tokyo. Even the hoses of South East Asia are an improvement on a bit of scrunched up paper. I particularly dislike it that supermarkets sell 'recycled' toilet paper.

That's a cracker of a corker of a peach of an article.
I naturally read it in the voice of David Mitchell -- in my head mind you, as reading it out loud whilst attempting a poor impersonation would clearly be absurd.
I discovered, however, that adding Mitchell's voice and inflection to pretty much anything makes it sound like you're haughtily ripping the piss in some overly-intellectual way.
Try it, you might like it.
