Just sinks sitting in public bathrooms whose SOLE purpose is to wash hands...not boil top roman...just wash my fucking hands. When I wash my hands at an airport bathroom there is NO REASON that water should reach BOILING POINT! WHAT THE FUCK??????????? I hate people soooooooo much. [edit: disclaimer...solely referring to public restroom sinks, not home sinks, not kitchen sinks. ]

Ok
I need to +1 here.

In England, yes there are 2 taps, but who in his right mind in England would wash his hands with cold water unless they want them to stiffen and fall off? The hot water tap ironically almost always has a sign reading 'VERY HOT WATER, BE CAREFUL'. Be careful? What are we supposed to do, blow on the water to make it cold before washing our hands? There have been times when I'm literally jumping after each wash.

Jeez.

Again, it is hot to stop legionaries disease....needs to be above 65C.

A simple mixer tap at the sink would cover it, but the cheap/dumb shits don't do that do they (designers)?

why dont you just drive into the sink?

Am I the only one who never sees a tap with ONLY hot water? Like, ever?

Airport sinks that automatically turn on when you put your hands under. They are usually cold (when you don't want them to be) and sometimes luke warm. But once in a while they're scolding hot.

i still have no hot water

OP

just go to the reception, and ask them to turn the heater down because you cannot wash your hands without boiling them. If they don't comply, have a coupla more beers, go see john again butthis time,piss everywhere, and write a comment on the mirror and walls with lipstick, something like " I can't wash my hands because it's too fucking hot".

Lol, like posting here will solve your epic problem. Think real life practical solutions, son. Go sort your problems with the real people connected to that problem, and the solution to that problem. In your case, hot water.

It is not compliant with health and safety regulations, since kids can't always read signs, and therefore might burn themselves. What are you supposed to do ? Think. Then contact your nearest health and safety office. Jeez don't care, jeez ain't gonna help.

Mmanu makes sense, but what am I going to do, complain to every other public place I go to? I could take real action, but I'd rather just complain and label this as yet another failure associated with human existence and then sit on a chair saying "lol yeah humans are so dumb I can't wait until aliens take me with them."

So anyway, I'm not complaining because I want action taken and c0r is my connection to reality. I thread started because I wanted to point out a problem that seems so widespread yet no one seems to notice or care about. Just read the responses of one idiot after another in this thread along the lines of "don't use the hot knob jake stupid benson." Their answer reflects overall human failure to notice the logic in the fact that a sink made for washing hands should be spewing out water that caters to hands, not boiling Top Roman (or maybe their answer reflects their inability to read more than one line in the start of my thread...more likely case scenario I suppose).

It's like buying a light bulb that will sometimes get so bright it will burn your skin. Naturally if a light bulb is SUPPOSED to be for your home it should NEVER burn your skin. Similarly, if a sink is SUPPOSED to just wash your HANDS, then it should never burn your skin.

I have a feeling this hot sink issue won't get anyone to take me serious. It's like a Tranny going up to every place that has a male vs female restroom saying "Excruuzzz me. But where are the Tranny restrooms???" People will just laugh and be like "you have a vagina-penis?" I am a tranny when it comes to public restroom hot water sinks. I am a too hot to handle water tranny that no one will listen to. /emo

Omg I totally just reminded myself I have Top Roman. I'm gonna eat me some mutha fuckin noodles bitches!!!!!

I lolled at this thread.

P.S. I agree.

I also get pissed off when there is only a cold water tap. Fuck you, I don't want to wash my hands in icey cold water and get to the point that I can no longer feel my fingers. Gimme some hot water damnit!

OH OH!

And whoever came up with the moronic idea of wash basins with TWO TAPS?!?? One for hot, one for cold. Either scald your hands, or freeze them bitches... make your choice!



People are le dumb.

LOL I love you Theresa

k, without reading the latter half of the thread, here's a simple solution:
1) Turn the hot water knob
2) Turn the cold water knob
3) ???
4) Voila! Warm water!!1zomfg






if this has already been suggested, sorry.


edit: looks like it hasn't been. What the hell is wrong with people? I say implement the scalding water system everywhere so those who don't know better burn their fucking hands off. :\

These sinks were invented before codl and hot water mixing came into play.

There's a tap in the toilets of one club I go to regularly that you could cook a lobster under. You can see the steam rising off of it, and this is in a room so hot that the mirrors are covered in condensation. The annoying fucking thing is that the other set of toilets in the club have perfectly good taps, yet they're protected by the dreaded Toilet Attendant, who charges you a quid to let you wash your hands while he sprays you in the face with an eye-stinging cloud of Calvin Klein.

I've started skipping washing my hands whenever possible, although avoiding splash-back when you're drunk is easier said than executed.

It (he??) sprays you with CK? What kind of system is that?

A fucked up one. Basically, if you wash your hands they'll come over, spray you with some cologne, hand you a paper towel to dry your hands and maybe some gum or a lolly and demand money in return for this "service". If the place is packed you can probably sneak in and wash your hands while he's snared some other poor bastard, but you're playing with fire.

I like to put my blade under scolding hot water before I shave whatever little facial hair I have, it feels good
