Last week New York City unveiled its first automatic pay toilet. For $0.25 and at a limit of 15 minutes per use, you could hit a streetside loo that automatically self-cleans.

The effort to promote the APTs (as they’re so trendily called) was called First Flush. The automatic public toilets were unveiled last Thursday.

“City big-wigs,” as WCBS TV calls ’em, say this is “a truly historic occasion.”

Bravo for progress, especially when it’s in the ass-wiping arena.
