Scatological humor on Althouse? I am impressed.
A serious issue in a world where priorities are set by unserious people.
I'm guessing the one with the girl using binoculars is the least used. Generally speaking, the Kiwis have a great sense of humor.
At bottom? You mean fundamentally.
Not exactly an exhaustive list of the worlds toilets. Where's the WaPo and NYT's editorial pages?

You want microaggression at the urinal?
There I was, first day of work as an engineer at a semiconductor company, standing at the urinal, when in walk Bob & Tom, two maintenance techs. They take positions immediately next to me on both sides.

Tom unzips, and replies, "Deep, too."
