Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Obviously once you take it home you’re supposed to screw off one of these heads and store it somewhere. After a few months/years when the brush head is dirty enough, you go find the clean head and shove it up your ass.

My friend wants to know if they have to wait to shove the clean one up their ass or if it's something they can do right away.

One is a replacement head. It's literally right there on the label.

Looks like the second one is loosely attached, and meant to be stored away as a replacement

It’d be nice if there were a lever to help remove the brush. I’d rather not physically manipulate the used brush with my hand.

Easy, just use your mouth.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Woah there! You’re clearly supposed to use your butthole.

It's so you can share the bristly feeling with your partner

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 51 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

The whole thing isn't actually a toilet brush, while you could use it by itself it's intended to be a replacement set for an existing ikea toilet brush, it's two heads and a shaft and you're supposed to unscrew one of the heads and screw your old handle onto the top of it.

They just screw both heads on to keep it all together

Simple ... one side is for cleaning the toilet ... the other side is for doing the dishes

Just don't mix up the ends .... that would be disgusting

You mean you guys don’t wanna turn the brush over and have shitty water drip on your hand?

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 3 weeks ago

It's good because this way my SO and I can each have our own brush, like how you don't share our toothbrush.

[–] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Finally, I can clean the loo and brush my teeth at the same time. So efficient!

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

No way. I want to grip that thing by the end of a nice long handle so I'm holding it nowhere the business end. I don't want two business ends so the one I used last time is hovering above my hand, possibly still waiting to shake droplets of nope on me.

[–] lemmydividebyzero@reddthat.com 8 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Does it even have Bluetooth?

Cleans your butt and the toilet at the same time. I’m not seeing the problem here
