Yes, this post is actually about violently flushing toilets.  We have auto-flushers at work, which I love because then you don’t have to flush the toilet yourself by kicking the stick thing or,  heaven forbid, touching the little handle that hundreds of people touch right after they do their business and before they wash their hands (if they wash their hands at all).   Have you ever noticed, especially on auto-flushers, how violently the flushing is?  They’re loud (I always feel like it’s screaming at me, the sound is akin to the water sucker things at the dentist), often there are little sprinkles of water on the seat post-flush, and you think there’s a good possibility that the water is going to escape the bowl and come and attack you.  I seriously wonder if toilet juice is going to get on me when I don’t get out of the way quickly enough.
