Environmentalism has never been so intimate as with the TwoDaLoo, billed as the world's first simultaneous-flush two-seater toilet. The side-by-siders can be emptied individually or in a single 2.6-gallon-saving flush. With a "privacy wall" and LCD television and iPod docking station add-ons, couples (and, perhaps, just good friends) will enjoy doing double duty for Planet Earth.
And if we really want to do double duty for Planet Earth, just think of how many virgin arboreal trees could be saved by sharing the toilet paper?
The price is $1400, but the minimum order is 12. Think about it, though: where else can 24 people have that much fun for only $16,800?
They don't have a picture showing actual models using the TwoDaLoo, but here's one showing a really cute crash dummy couple:
Maybe I'm a big square (perhaps I'm getting curmudgeonly in my old age), but sitting together on that thing (or whatever rhymes with sitting) just doesn't strike me as a terribly sexy or romantic thing for two people to do together -- even if they are in love.
And if they aren't in love, well, it seems even less sexy and romantic.
But I guess it's a good way to get to really know someone.
MORE: The pot plot thickens. Wouldn't this encourage men to sit to pee? In violation of God's law?
No seriously.
MORE: Commenter Kevin points out that "this product was spoofed on SNL probably about 15 years ago, except it was called the 'Love Toilet'."
Hmm...
Does that mean that SNL should be allowed patent holder's rights?

The family that prays together, plays together, or eats a meal together: stays together. I'll just stick with that one.

That may be true, but communal toilet experiences are hardly new. The Romans used to have several-holed privies, as did medieval castles and some good old American outhouses had "two holers."
Even with LCD screens and iPod docks, the environmentalists seem determined to send us back to the Dark Ages.

Yes, the Romans had multi-holed marble privies, and I've seen these toilets at Ephesus.
Rich Romans had slaves to sit on them and keep their "places" warm.
Just ask anyone who's ever been to a sporting event at an old stadium with a trough.
Actually, this product was spoofed on SNL probably about 15 years ago, except it was called the "Love Toilet".

Saturday Night Live did a faux-commercial of this very product back in the, I don't know, late-80s or early-90s. It had Victoria Jackson and Kevin Something gazing lovingly into each other's eyes while conducting their respective elimination activities.
Once again, life imitates art.

Prior art? This is perfect for people who for whatever reason is into watersports, won't it?
And think about it this way. No more 'wide stance' arguments!
