It's typically understood that talking on the phone while sitting on the toilet is pretty gross, but what about talking through the toilet? This odd novelty phone is designed to look like a miniature baby blue toilet.
There are several pieces to this picture that are unusual. First of all, you rarely see colored toilets anymore. Secondly, talking through a toilet seat is just all together odd.
This toilet telephone is meant for home use. It works just like a regular phone, except you open up the toilet seat to dial your number. It isn't clear where the receiver is located, although there is a small speaker above the toilet tank, which may be used for speakerphone.
