Would you buy one?
Would you give it a shot just to find happiness?
What will you do for happiness?
It's being marketed in New York City...what do you think about that? Should it be? Is this marketing tactic in the picture over the top?

First my serious comment: This would not even catch my eye as I was walking around here. And if it did, I probably wouldn't think it was that riske & probably wouldn't go see what it was about (because I'd be scared to check the site :-) ).
But on the flip side - is this really designed to be for more than one person? I mean, I know that you can "change the water flow with a push of the button", but really?
And as far as the remote thing goes.... never going to see that where my family will also be! This is just asking for trouble.
I wouldn't be suprised if this starts to be used on high-end homes/offices/hotels & maybe eco-friendly houses....maybe.
There would be times that I'm sure the heated seat would be valuable.
Okay, two things--one, I'm not sure how I would react to that ad other than pure unadulterated laughter (kinda like what I did at the website).
Second, this quote kills me (from cleanishappy.com)--"The Washlet is the bathroom fixture with one fixation--your happiness." I'm sorry, but I really have a hard time thinking that a remote controlled water wand and a blast of warm air across my backside is really sufficient to make me happy. (To be perfectly honest, I think I would be really creeped out.)
I think what is most interesting about this ad campaign is that it is yet another example of the cheapening of words within our language. Pure and simple, "happiness" should never describe a toilet.
All that aside, I think this thing is hilarious, ridiculous, and I would try it in a heartbeat.
I love, love, LOVE a high-tech toilet.
I've ordered mine already.
I'm not so sure whats going on. I'm ok with my own toilet.
shadow puppets. nice!
