Pay to Piss?

Lets hope this stays grounded. On second thought, maybe this better stay "up in the air". Apparently a European airline Ryanair is contemplating or at least joking about having people pay to use the bathroom on the plane.

I could just see how that would mushroom into something even more insane like having pay toilets in all public restrooms just so stores, malls, and small businesses could all make a buck.

Where does any self respecting business get it into their mind that they could charge people to piss? Even if they are joking, if they are going to even think about this seriously, they would have to make the airline restrooms slightly larger and more comfortable if they expect you to pay to use it.

Take the money from luggage fees, take away the snack cart/beverage cart to save a few bucks, charge a little more on tickets, but for the love of all that is good and normal in this world you can not charge people to use the crapper whether it is on a plane or in a public building. That would be going one step too far. What's next? Paying to breathe on board the plane?

If it came down to that here in the States, I would wear depends on the plane, I wouldn't give the airline the satisfaction of seeing me pay to use their on board restroom.
