I suggest you name this thread something classy: iPotty.

[Fragems]

Posted this in the What made you smile/ticked you off thread a while back. Went on sale around Black Friday and I laughed my ass off at the reviews at amazon.



for example

I bought this for myself because, let's face it, I'm a busy lady on the "go" (pun intended!) and I don't always have time to properly do my business when there is so much internetting to be done.

Fortunately, I was blessed with a pretty minuscule frame and some freakish flexibility, so I am able to mount this sucker like a barely-oversized toddler.

At first, I found myself only using time-wasting apps like Flow or Fruit Ninja. Then, as my restroom visits lengthened (thank you, iPotty! My rushed toiletings had lead to some pretty serious lower G/I issues), I realized that we had some serious multi-tasking opportunities here.

In the past week, I have edited my NaNoWriMo novel, stalked my ex-boyfriend (whose new wife, by the way, is hideous... but at least she's tall, right, Rich?!), filled out my passport application - AND PRINTED IT! FROM MY BATHROOM! - and completed an online mobile app development class. And I've never been more regular!

The only downside I can see is that now, every time I try to use my iPad in a non-water-closeted venue, I experience the sudden and undeniable urge to eliminate waste. It makes my normal bedtime routine pretty uncomfortable, and makes me feel weak for my Pavlovian response.

I'm trying to taper off using this, but now a regular toilet just feels so high. There is a reason most of the world squats, people! It's better for you!

My next plan is to use this to toilet train my cats. I have tried those cat apps, but they don't like them. They LOVE the keyboard app, and one of my cats wrote a pretty incredible song the other night when I was drinking and watching House, but by the time I came out of that wine stupor, the other cat had apparently deleted the recording out of jealousy.

Neither of them has successfully mastered the potty yet, but I have high hopes! And I guess I'll just start reading before bed or something. I don't know what people who read on the toilet do to unwind, though...

Why, why, WHY would you let a kid that can't even piss in a toilet use an iPad?! A used iPad 1 goes for more than a hundred dollars. Are there really that many people willing to let their kid fuck up an electronic device that expensive?

EDIT: If you want to give your kid an Angry Birds machine, just buy a shitty Android prepaid phone off eBay.

No to mention the germs.

My niece, who is one, has an iPad. My Sister is a lunatic.

A kid needs to be at least 3 before they start touching electronics, and at least six before they have their own.

I'm so with you on this. That kid is sooooooooooooo over stimulated it isn't funny. She also has a smart phone. Why? Hell if I know. It's simply not good for development in my experience.

I have a very dear friend who has a child who is the same age as my niece and it's like night and day. My friend's kid is mobile, inquisitive, not shy at all, and has already dropped her first F-bomb (my buddy said "Shit. Tilly said Fuck yesterday. Time for me to start watching my God damned mouth". I love that guy.) Tilly's favorite toy? A ball. Which at her very young age already plays catch with. Kid is crazy smart and she's only a baby.

Is there an app connected to it that measures urine levels? Strength of stream, amounts, content, etc? Peeing could be the best game ever!

I once hung out on a really tiny forum that had a special board just for members to post stats about the last poop they took.
