It's just a mobility assistance device.

This meme is like laughing at the idea of wheelchair ramps because you think they're for people who are wrapped up around the legs like mummies.

Are they laughing at the device, or the promotional photo?

Seriously, it looks like Sarah Palin really hit hard times with this one.

Don't forget I was actually the person who searched for this product in the first place

Mate, I literally have four support rails in my bathroom alone and i'm still laughing at this. The butt (heh) isn't the idea of assistive devices.

Well yeah, that's ok if it's so bad you're feeling weak, but they really need to add a seatbelt for extreme cases where liftoff may be a concern...

Putting both handles on a single pole promotes bad form.

The top handle is for someone stepping into or out of the tub. The lower handle is for someone trying to stand from a shower chair, or pulling themselves up from the floor.

It's like a subway handle for pooping.

So, a subway handle.

I didn't know toilet capacity was measured in the hundreds of pounds

Edit: I hate to explain jokes but I was referring to the quantity of mass going into the toilet, not onto it.

I think that's the capacity for the bar, not the toilet

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Well that's just going to absolutely ruin the bartender's day

Porque no los dos?

Critical thinking: the weight capacity refers to the mobility handles.

Once you have mobity issues, movement typically goes down while caloric intake stays the same.

The US is an important market.

JANET! Let the cat out of the toilet…

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

I need one that has a plunger on the other end.

There’s a towel bar in front of my toilet (small bathroom) and holding onto it during a poop can absolutely elevate your form. Mind you I have a squatty potty too so this is an advanced technique.
