Why haven't they changed the design of toilets?

i think they need to design one where your legs don't lose circulation from sitting on the toilet too long while surfing the internet with your laptop--like mine are right now.
hahaha i do that all the time it makes time go by faster definitely!

If that won't do the trick, I don't know what would...maybe a 4X4 Animal style!

Some things about the Japanese washlets:

1. The magic "wand" retracts out of the way to avoid fecal bombings. You can't piss on them either.

2. The water is not strong enough to give you an enema.

3. there is no "water poo" mixture to wipe. The water "scrubs" off the Klingons - and is also pleasantly heated before the spray.

On the other note:

Toilets suck today, mostly because they're low-flush. There's barely enough water to move the grogan on its merry way. Some low-flush toilets are better. The ones with the float and chain just suck. Toto and some others have the PowerMax and gravity assist which is much better. Then there's the ones that se pressurized water. Those are loud, but get the job done.

don't they squirt water up? The first time i was in brazil the hotel had them. I was young (13) and had no idea what the hell it was. My brother and I turned the handle all the way and the stream almost hit the ceiling. That only made us more confused


Baby wipes own.

It depends. Those of you blessed with little hair around the sphincter have an easy job at it. The rest of us need three rolls of TP and a sandblaster to get clean after a deuce.

I just put in a new toilet in my 1/2 bath. I bought THE most popular toilet at my local HD...Kohler Cimmaron (1-piece,Elongated bowl,Comfort height). It's made for the avg american guy 6'3" 240lb. Fits me perfect. It's got the elongated bowl like at the airport or at school and the seat is about 3 inches higher than standard.

Go ahead and laugh but my wife calls that my throne. She tells me her feet barely hit the floor.


I think toilets are getting better in design since I was a kid.
