    You have to wonder who thought this was a good idea for a product...

    (go ahead and post more, I enjoy staring at these things)

    (but do provide a link so that we know it's actually for sale and not just a photoshop)

    so, like, the thing you pee and poop in is actually connected to the fishtank? and someone was like, "this is a good idea. let's sell it." wtf indeed.

    also, it's giving me a fop fanart idea, haha. cosmo, wanda and poof living in that fucking thing...

    Reminds me of the Poor Little Fish sink. (If anyone's nervous about clicking that link, fear not: the fish involved is not actually in peril, although I can't imagine that the setup is very pleasant for it.)

    kmoss whoops

    ok so i just spent like five solid minutes staring at that toilet tank thing trying to work out how it's still ok for the fish
    and it totally is[ish, depending on where you get your water, i guess]! because the tank water is clean[ish], and only goes into the toilet when you flush. i don't know how they made that to be less violent/draining for the fish when you flush, though. because the tank should get pretty low. Maybe if you put it with the filtering systems? I am in the weird position of knowing a lot more about toilet tanks than fish tanks.
    (Oh and then I actually click on the link and my brain is filled with hey they cheated. man. they wrapped the fish tank around the toilet tank? I feel so betrayed by the designers. we were this close to solving the filter problem.)

    Remember modern toilets often have a really tiny tank but they make them look a lot bigger because people expect it, plus then they pack it full of polystyrene sound insulation so it's not so noisy.

    This is true. I know more about function than structure re: toilets.
    I just feel so betrayed by these people. :D

    @Morven that's my exact reaction to it, it's either "why would anyone create this horror" or "this is great I want a dozen"

    This seems like simultaneously a product that will look like WTF to neurotypicals and seems actually useful for people with sensory weirdness (it is an oral hygiene product that is not mint-flavored):

    Eek, I bet. The figurines I find unsettling but neat, because i like unsettling things, but the platters are nope.

    kmoss whoops

    I am weirdly oversensitive to mint. i get migraines

    i hate being an adult because they don't even ask you at the dentist if you want mint or cherry or bubble gum
    and i have to go into the kid's section to get toothpaste that doesn't make me hate the entire world (sparkle fun!)

    that floss looks excellent
