this reminds me...
On "How I Met Your Mother" a few weeks ago, they showed Barney's apartment. In case you don't know, Barney is a BIG-TIME womanizer. He was showing how everything in his apartment is designed to make women uncomfortable, so that they never stay. There's no food in the fridge, his porn collection is out on a bookshelf and tastefully lit, he only has one pillow on his side of the bed, etc.
but the best was the toilet. he had a device that automatically RAISED the seat every time it was put down.
