anyone else noticed these ads, not exactly work-safe, showing naked asses with smiley faces over them? i keep getting them on sites like Wired. they make me mildly uncomfortable every time i see them.

it turns out that Japanese toilet technology has finally come to the US.

behold the (all-flash all the time, featuring an opening butt montage) home of the Washlet. i am both repelled and intrigued.

there is a buy/try page on the site where you enter your zip code; silly me, i was thinking that perhaps they were featured in hotels or something. nope. there are several plumbers in the city that have a demo model. is it prudish of me to feel odd about the idea of going to a plumbing showroom to use the toilet? i'm trying to imagine the pro/con conversation with the salesperson later, about the temp of the seat, the water pressure, how well the dryer worked...

A friend of mine was a missionary's kid in Japan. Besides working well, they are great for pranks!

I just liked running my mouse over their pictures when they were done way too cheerfully announcing their purpose - just to watch them twitch.
