New toilet could stay clean forever

There’s been a major scientific breakthrough – in skid marks!

Could We Possibly Have Clean Toilets Forever?

It’s the worst. You lift the lid, and there it is – eww!

Researchers might have discovered a way to fix toilet bowls so that, well – waste – won’t stick to the bowl.

Have we just given up on curing cancer, or climate change? Or maybe this was just a side passion project for the real Sheldon, Leonard, Howard and Raj?

Poo Free Toilets:

I get it -no one wants to see that in their toilet. But how do you stop the natural landing, and stickage – and skid marks, left behind Well, you can keep flushing over and over, but doing that uses a lot of water, right?

Study Finds has a whole batch of info about Scientists who used 3D printers to come up with a super-slick toilet bowl surface. It basically hits, then just quickly slips down the bowl, to the water

They wanted to find a material that would stay slippery, and not just put a coating on the bowl. A coating could break down over time. They tested it by using sandpaper on it 1,000 times, and it stayed intact, and held out nicely.

I wonder about those of us who live in Las Vegas, where our water is so hard you could bounce it off a wall. That hard water eats at everything it touches, especially porcelain. So I’m intrigued.

The Testing Process:

The test is kind of eww, because they needed to use a fake poo. They used all sorts of goo’s, like yogurt, and honey. The made almost an oatmeal like poo you can see a picture of here. (I promise, it’s harmless)

Apparently the super dooper slippery pooper (what I think it should be called) performed well, and stayed clean!

Don’t know when the new, state of the art, poo resistant toilets will be available to consumers. Or even for businesses, cuz – public restrooms. Double eww. But I do know I’m in!

Next up: fitted sheets that fold themselves, Cha-ching – million dollar idea!

Toilet Paper Might Be One Of Best Christmas Gifts Of All Time

Tis the season – to shop! It’s holiday shopping season, so the age old question, once again: What do you buy for someone who has EVERYTHING?

We always try to think big, or unique. Well, why not think practical! Get them something practical that you know they’ll use. It might not be sexy, and it might be downright boring – but I guarantee they will love it!

Years ago a friend of mine had a secret Santa/white elephant holiday party. You know how it works – everybody brings a gift and everybody leaves with a different gift. A lot of people go for the small packages or boxes – perhaps because of the old adage “big things come in small packages.” My friend went for the huge, poorly wrapped package. She said it was one of the best gifts EVER – 48 rolls of toilet paper!!

Everyone thought it was hilarious, but she said “I’ve never come close to getting secret Santa gift as amazing and practical as that, and I have no idea why nobody tried to take it from me – unless they somehow knew I’d physically fight them over it, because I would have!”

There are things we need that sometimes we don’t just don’t want to buy – necessities, and “have to buys” are just no fun. We always need them, so maybe it’s just nicer if someone else buys them for us once in a while, right? Saves us a little money, time, and yes – they’re practical!

People online are talking about the most UNDERRATED Christmas gifts they’ve received, and would like themselves, and there’s a lot of practical, useful stuff on it.

Here are some great – yet still very unique – gift ideas. Maybe try one at your secret Santa. And definitely make sure you pick the awkward looking gift!
