Have you ever thought about wiping your butt with one of your boss’ annoying memos? Well, now you can without fearing the dreaded anal papercut. This machine from Tokyo-based Nakabayashi can recycle your office paper waste into toilet paper right on site.
With his radical new simple toilet design, Alejandro Bona has single-handedly made pooping outdoors cool again.
Bathroom technology has taken yet another leap forward my friends. Hot on the heels of the news that toilet paper researchers have discovered the mythical 3-ply tissue holy grail, the Japanese have developed a simple but effective one-handed TP dispenser called the “Korobe-Kun”. The main purpose of the device is to help elderly individuals who lack manual dexterity in their hands, but it seems to me that the design is far better than standard dispensers overall. Plus it comes in five hot colours! [DigInfo via Core77]
In what is surely the technological breakthrough of the century, the brightest toilet paper minds at Georgia Pacific have done the impossible—they have created a 3-ply tissue. I know, I know…it’s hard to contain your excitement. Can you imagine what this means? I mean, to wipe with something with this calibre of softness? It boggles the mind. However, industry analyst Bill Schmitz is skeptical, saying that the TP of the future will most likely be stronger, not softer—but my arse and I are hoping for the best. [LiveScience]
