FIRST!!! And you don’t have to worry about school bathrooms if you are home-schooled.
You might have to worry about nutcase parents in some cases though
Only some cases.
home-schooled ??? home-schooled ???!!! …..
Now I know where all the “First Trolls” came from !!!!1111one one one etc.
God Dammit… should have known that…
You’re just pissed your parents made the decision to send you to school and brainwash you instead of waiting until you were old enough to understand and make the decision yourself.
what’s with all these home-school fans?
How exactly is this a paradox?
par⋅a⋅dox /ˈpærəˌdɒks/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [par-uh-doks] Show IPA
–noun 1. a statement or proposition that seems self-contradictory or absurd but in reality expresses a possible truth.
2. a self-contradictory and false proposition.
3. any person, thing, or situation exhibiting an apparently contradictory nature.
That may be true, but I for one am just happy they used a Venn Diagram correctly.
actually, they didnt really use it correctly… or at the least effectively. there is no need to write “smells really bad” “no toilet paper” and “Doesn’t latch”.
This is actually the exact opposite of a paradox: it’s perfect logic. All things which don’t smell nice smell bad, all things which do not latch don’t latch. all things which do not have toilet paper do not have toilet paper.
The one and only original thought with this graph (as with 80% of venn diagrams with 3 groups on GraphJam) is the thing in the middle – the fact that it’s taken.
And even that makes sense. Except for that it’s just as often not taken in real life.
it seems more of a conundrum to me
Alex,
It is a paradox for women. I school bathroom might as well not truly exist unless it has toilet paper, isn’t disgusting and can lock. You don’t understand because you don’t have to sit down to pee.
Amy,
No, it is an *annoyance* for woman.
I think it’s an annoyance for all humans (any many non-human life forms… Cats are notorious for being a bit picky about where they poo).
Just ahead of guys who stand up to pee in public toilet stalls on my “pet peeves” list: Guys who stand up to pee in public toilet stalls, don’t wipe the seat, and don’t have the gray matter to comprehend that auto-flushing sit-toilets do not not automatically flush if you don’t sit on them. They don’t work by magic, guys!
if two things are right, one isn’t, and if three things are right, it isn’t possible, even though that’s how it always works
Brilliant!
Agree. There should be more creativity with those venn diagrams.
It smells really bad and it doesn’t at the same time? It has toilet paper and it doesn’t have toilet paper at the same time?
Looks more like a case of “I don’t know how venn diagrams work” to me.
So I’ve stumbled on a website where seemingly intelligent adults are going to argue about the proper use of the Venn diagram rather than enjoy a bit of lighthearted humor?
Put down the slide rules and pocket protectors, Nerds.
More like you failed to properly read it. It is clear. Three conditions. Two conditions overlapping without one of them states simply the opposite of that third condition. Whereas the presence of the third means there are none within the overlap that do not conform to all three conditions.
Your failure does not bring this diagram down any.
wasn’t this an EXACT copy of ‘The Public Bathroom Paradox’?
Just sayin’
I didn’t see the “Public Bathroom Paradox”, but when I saw this I would have associated it with any public bathroom. Good call.
Not a paradox!
A paradox is a statement or group of statements that leads to a contradiction or a situation which defies intuition. The term is also used for an apparent contradiction that actually expresses a non-dual truth (cf. kōan, Catuskoti). Typically, either the statements in question do not really imply the contradiction, the puzzling result is not really a contradiction, or the premises themselves are not all really true or cannot all be true together. The word paradox is often used interchangeably with contradiction. Often, mistakenly, it is used to describe situations that are ironic.
See above post for this exact same argument.
see above w/ alex’s for the same rebuttal
I didn’t have to worry about if the stall had a working latch or not. None of them even had a door in my school.
u had to worry ’bout poop on the seat at mine…
All of the above, and also abandoned underwear, sometimes in the ceiling.
Also, the clogged toilets and sometimes someone would take the honor of pooping behind the toilet. Never figured out who that ninja brownie baker was…
I can’t remember the last time I had a problem with school bathrooms…
Wait….if it’s TAKEN by a STUDENT, then what about the student that is taking the bathroom?? This paradox wouldn’t make sense o.o
Do any paradoxes make sense?
aww exactly
That’s why you take toilet paper from the one that doesn’t latch and then go in the one that doesn’t have toilet paper.
We don’t permit thinking outside the box in this school.
They purposely encase the toilet paper, making it un-attainable. Those bastards
True Dat
hah u should come to my school… O_o
Do they teach spelling there?
The logic in those circles sucks
I had this problem in Chinese bathrooms with hot water, soap, and a working hand dryer (no paper towels there). You only got two out of the three, if that many.
wow, without the extra labels, i would never have known that areas outside a circle would be the opposite of inside the circle.
My school bathrooms are all 3 bad sides. They stink, (and the floor often covered in urine or water) The latches don’t work majority of the time, and there is hardly any toilet paper.
How, exactly, can “has toilet paper” overlap with “no toilet paper”? That’s either some advanced zen thing or a bit crap.
It doesn’t…why are you on this site if you can’t read venn diagrams?
Yeah, my bad. Maybe I should have acknowledged that with THE VERY NEXT COMMENT or something, huh?
Oh wait – I’m a bit crap. Really shouldn’t post first thing in the morning.
It’s probably just me, but doesn’t the “no toilet paper” section seem smaller than the “smells really bad” and “doesn’t latch” sections? Might be intentional too, but at least I’d find it weird if it was so.
How do you know if it smells bad, has a working latch, and has toilet paper if it’s taken?
Because after you’re done (and so are they) you walk by the stall and see that it has toilet paper and you can smell that it’s not bad, and of course you know it has a working latch because it wasn’t practically open as you walked by it the first time.
Yet another reason to be thankful I’m homeschooled…
Agreed. XD
I’d go for the one that doesn’t latch, myself. If you’re ridiculously shy, you can always keep it closed with your foot. =/
This is perfect, I should send this to my school principal.
I think I will. Maybe I won’t have to hold it for hours and hours just because it’s disgusting, broken, or unusable. UGH!
next time you want to think, do it to yourself plzkthx.
this is a terrible venn diagram; your principal will probably think you are equally as retarded.
oh, and UGH! omg!
So true. A third of the bathroom stalls at my college don’t latch, another third do, but pop open as soon as someone opens or closes a nearby stall, and then the remaining third seem to always have pee on the seats! Srsly, people, don’t pee on the good seats!
this graphic does not illustrate a paradox. FAIL
I don’t get it.
