Who is this sign meant for?

article image placeholderUploaded by @arish
So I just came across this sign in our public restroom, and I was really wondering, who, who, who is this sign meant for? Is going there and seeing, wow, a toilet bowl. I need to drink water from it, but wait. Oh, this is reclaimed water. I should not drink

That's funny. That's really funny. I don't know who actually will do that have to actually Google why the sign was placed there, but that's honestly very funny

@madymz it’s not a joke… just an indication of dumbing down of our society

So this is definitely not in joke. It is put up as a serious notice, and I think it is in response to some regulation requirements somewhere. Again, I have not Googled it up with any research on this, but I would be willing to bet that there is a a regulation out there that if you use reclaimed water, you have to put a notice about not using it for drinking

Disturbing…

Irish, I would not drink water out of a toilet bowl, even if it was not reclaimed or repurposed or whatever. I mean, like, even if it was just fresh water that just refilled filled a toilet Bowl, I would not drink out of it. So with that said, to even state that. Okay, now this is not freshwater. People don't drink it. It's like, I don't know

Whimsical!!

Hey, Arish, thank you for posting this. You're right about this being regulations gone. Awry. Although I do think that there is a whimsical edge to this. I can imagine the person who posted this just going within their heads like, oh, this is going to be so much fun when we put this up there

This is really funny. I think it's for the dogs who can read or for the kids who cannot understand what toilet does. But anyway, this is really funny, but we can never know how stupid the person can be

And I can say that this is a very sad issue faced to the people in India or other countries who are suffering for day to day daily water. So I feel very bad to notice that in the restrooms like it would have been in biggest like in five star hotels or apartments or something. Whatnot I can say, but it would be in a classy estate so we can see. I don't know why people go from low class people cannot reach out there
