Being the family oriented site that we are, it's going to be challenging to talk about this toilet paper creation without actually naming the product. Yup, these are toilet paper mittens, the product name rhymes with mittens, but the 'm' is replaced with a foul-mouthed euphemism for poop.

Fortunately for the IndieGoGo campaign by Rachel Fine, she plans to call the toilet paper creation 'Scmittens' if she secures enough funding for the project. I imagine that these 'Scmittens' are designed for people who know how to clean up after themselves. Either that, of maybe there's a bunch of people out there whose hands just get really cold while they do their business. Either way, the 'scmittens' are such a clever idea that it got the attention of Howard Stern and [Dallas Mavericks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/womens-wellness-day) owner Mark Cuban.
