What’s the purpose of the toilet seat in the thumbnail being shaped all weird like that?

So its not comfortable to sit and you dont fall into it head first "by accident"

Why can't the shitter be comfortable? Like that toilet seat probably costs more to make and is harder to clean. Hell, why give a toilet seat at all?

If prisoners are comfortable in any way in America, that is a bad thing apparently.

There's a huge contingent of people in the U.S. who think that if you're in jail, let alone prison, meaning you may not have even gone to trial yet, you deserve to suffer as much as possible. There are millions of people who think that you deserve to suffer just because you were arrested.

*millions of people who haven’t been at the wrong place at the wrong time or the wrong race

Plenty of those people also think if you are the "wrong" race, you deserve to suffer for the sin of being born.

I guess in case someone pees standing up the seat probably can't be lifted so less area to hit
