Pa, Pa, Pants Man!

Back when I was a toddler, one of the local television stations used to screen cute cartoon community service announcements on the importance of vitamins, of eating a balanced diet, of personal hygiene, of not being a "ding-a-ling," and so on. What was missing from my education in those days, however, was a cartoon character teaching me how to use the toilet:



At least now I know I've been doing it correctly for the past thirty years. (But methinks Shimajiro could use more fibre in his diet. Cabbage never fails for me.) There's a squat toilet version also, but the English subtitles are, well, less "faithful" to the original Japanese, and given the audience of impressionable young students I've acquired of late, quite inappropriate.
