Being the curious type I sidled up to the bar ordered a coffee and started chatting with the bartender. It's not an easy subject to broach so I sort of ambled all around the place until I mentioned they always have a huge lineup outside on Wednesdays for the cheap draft promotion they run. I asked if the university kids caused a lot of trouble and she mentioned they had the odd fights but nothing else serious.
I then had to ask why the toilet tank lids were bolted to the wall. As soon as I said this she got pretty quiet and said "we're you trying to do something" and I said no but I had read somewhere that people pooped in the tanks to create problems.
She then told me her story.
Every Wednesday every one of their toilets would get upperdecked, because the washrooms are single use facilities it was impossible to tell who was doing it. They fought back the only way they could, by bolting the lids to the wall, since they've done that the problem has ceased.
Here are some pics of the place and the can. I couldn't get a clear pic of how it was bolted but I think it's not too hard to figure out.
So as you can see the terrorists may score a point or two here and there but in the long run the side of good always prevails.
If you got an interesting story of how someone else fought back post it here.
