Carry Post-it Sticky Notes with You

Carry Post-it sticky notes with you in case you have to use a public toilet that is automatic. That way, you can cover the sensor up with the sticky note, and the toilet isn't flushing the whole time you are emptying your ostomy.

That's a neat trick. I hate those auto toilets. Thanks.

My work has recently installed those. At first, I would forget. Line the bowl with toilet paper, step back to undo my bag drain... and whoosh... my liner is down the drain. Dammit!

So now I grab a paper towel and drape it over the sensor.

I like the "post-it" note idea. It will be fun leaving it on the sensor for the next guest.

Good idea, thanks for passing it on.

You know who else this is a good idea for? People with young children... I seem to be in the minority with kids still at home, but some little kids really flip out with the auto flush. My daughter thought I was the devil incarnate once when I moved my hand away from the sensor too early. This would've helped me so much when mine were younger. I'm going to share this with family/friends with littles. They'll think I'm a genius but don't worry, I'll give you credit. :)

Brilliant! I will use this for sure, thanks!

Oh gosh, so glad you posted this! I usually step away, far away lol, but this is a much better idea!

Sheer genius! Thanks for that tip!

Just leave a nice note behind!

You can also just lay a piece of toilet paper over the flushing mechanism to prevent the flush.

Bubble gum... a thick, fat wad of it. No one will touch that shit.
