Preface: I don't care at all what bathroom anyone uses, just a silly lighthearted comment:

But I do find it a bit funny that the headline mentions 12,000 complaints, but leaves out that only 5 of them were even looked into, lol.

Sensationalism is everywhere, I guess, lol.

Interesting. I inferred that the vast majority were joke complaints to illuminate how absurd the hot line is just by reading the title.

Sensitivity is everywhere, I guess, lol.

Read the article. The rest were obvious jokes, and the 5 they thought may be "plausible" didn't result in a substantive complaint.

Yes, obviously. Why did I even bother with that preface, people are just so eager to take everything in the worst possible way, lol.

I was just trying to alleviate any confusion, cuz your second line made it sound like maybe you thought the rest of the calls weren't even listened to. Muh bad
