The Hot Seat...literally!

TC is so used to my wierd requests...Sometime last week while on the freeway, I spotted this truck with  a rather curious image from afar...

Me to TC: "Hurry, get the camera from my bag and take a picture of THAT please!!!!"...

((Sigh))...."Okay....mom", fumble, grumble, snap snap....

I mean, this had to be seen to be believed...


Apparently that truck was advertising toilet seats that can be warmed up. This is the brand, "Ultra Touch" and their logo features Rodin's "The Thinker" on the john/crapper/shitter/porcelain god/commode with his pants down, no doubt pondering how nice his ass must feel while taking a nice dumparoo. Missing in action? Proper reading material!

I don't think the seats are heated up so that you'd burn yourself, though.
.
According to their website, the seats are not foam padded but they are "soft to the touch". Ewww.

"The seats also feature a molded-in 12 volt Circuit heating element that heats to a comfortable 20 to 25 degrees above room temparature.  Treat yourself to a heated toilet seat. It is an unexpected pleasure that you will enjoy everyday. Once you try the heated UltraTouch seat you will never want to sit on another seat again!"  (EVER!!!!!)


Nice!

Who else has seen this truck?

DeadTreeMedia spotted the truck in LA traffic back in 2010! Ha ha! I had to search the interwebs for this!

UltraTouch's website is the aptly named: heatedtoiletseat.com

The closest thing to this I've ever experienced was the awesome toilet at Robata-ya Oton (aka the Toto Washlet Toilet) which had all kinds of gadgets (air, water, etc). It wasn't "warm" but it could do almost everything else, ha ha!

All righty then!
