I guess it just one of those things you say to invoke fuunier imagery then just your head exploding. Don't know where I picked it up, might of been one of my engineering buddies. It just seemed fitting considering all the crazy doodads they put on that hand dryer.

wait, Albert, what does that mean?
did your head just explode out of your ass?
did an ass just explode out of your head?
I mean, it creates some rather interesting imagery, but I don't think i got what you meant. I guess I'm not up-to-date on the things you engineers say...

My head just assploded at the technological marvel which is that hand dryer! Should read everyone post more thoroughly.

Al, It is a hand dryer. check par's previous post. If you have to put your hand on it as in the picture then the problem of improporly washed hands defeats any other great feature this product has. also what if you don't have the mobility in your leg to put it on the wall? is there a foot dryer feature aswell? and from that position I see thos puk kids simply tearing it off of the wall!!! all they have to do is lean back. oh well. I'm sure they have thought it through.

Don't want to sound slow, but what is it? A really weird art fixture?

The people who reinvented the upright vacuum cleaner have set their sights on your wet hands. Interesting concept. I wonder if it actually works.

Alison, you're right.
But, you're talking about undergrads.
Not to disparage the undergraduates (as much fun as it is to do), but, especially for those who went straight from high school to post-secondary, it can be hard to transit your mindset from "I'm here because I have to be, so I begrudgingly do everything I'm told as I always did" to "I'm here because I chose to be, and it's up to me to make the most of my time here, and actually actively learn something."
I know it took me a long time.
(In fact, I see myself still making that transition. "Why not?" seems to be a common question I still ask myself when I'm hesitant facing with an opportunity to take some initiative. It can take me to some strange places, though.)
But good on you for not letting them get by the easy way. They'll be better for it.
And besides, you can still make fun of them in the meantime.

Right on Alison! Don't bow to their will! If they want a pass they got to earn it.
