I am back. I am linking to the website for Great John Toilet Co. You have to see it. It saddens me that it is such a great idea. It is a toilet for fat folk. Here is the URL. http://greatjohn.com/grjodi.html
Regardless of who you are buying for, yourself or a loved one, there are a few things you might like to know about our toilets. The GREAT JOHN is by no means a STANDARD toilet. It was designed from the ground up.
COMFORT ISSUES A regular toilet has a terribly small seat. This creates very uncomfortable pressure points, consequently producing numbness in the legs and thighs from lack of proper blood flow. Our toilet seats have 150% more contact surface area than a standard elongated seat, yet it can be used by a small person or a child in a safe way. Considering ergonomics, the toilet seat and bowl have more than 6 extra inches in the front. We made the toilet bowl 17 ½” tall, which gives most people an easier time getting up. It also makes it ADA compliant. Finally, for those of us that are tall regardless of our weight, a standard toilet seat and a low toilet bowl create a very cramped and uncomfortable position. The GJ toilet has 10.5” longer legs and thighs clearance than a standard round toilet assuring a comfortable and ultra-relaxed experience.
SAFETY ISSUES The Great John is substantially more robust than a standard toilet. Standard designs are not meant to withstand a big person. For STABILITY, we designed a super wide base. To insure STURDINESS, we also added reinforcements into the base. Our toilets are tested to 2000 lb. To eliminate the problem of the SEAT SLIDING, we provide "Anti-Side" fins for safety. This also prevents pinching. Finally, GJ has added a second SET OF ANCHORS at the front sides of the base to increase protection against movement of the unit from the floor.
Just think about it for a minute. You are too fat to sit on a standard toilet comfortably, what does that say? You know you are too fat when you need fins for safety and to prevent pinching. Given your girth, though, I bet you don't feel the "pinch" for a few minutes anyway. It takes a while for the pain signal to get through all that fat.
I do not want to be insensitive to the obese and I do think that this is a great idea with a large market, pun intended. I am wondering, though, if it has an extra wide bowl to handle the dumps that are the size of a baby. No sense losing weight, just get an Great John HUGE toilet. That will solve all your problems. Of course, the drain lead out of the house will have to be expanded to handle all the extra waste.
I think that I am jealous that I did not see this need. Big ass toilet seats, what a fucking concept. I could start a line of big ass stuff, shoes for clowns, toilet seats for the morbidly obese, the list really is endless. Oh yeah, dig the couple on the website. We are fat, but jolly and even more so now that we can take a dump without fear of toilet collapse, seat slide or pinching. The world is good once again.
Just thought I would share that with y'all. It cracked me up and that is all that matters. It was the Heat of the Moment telling you what your heart meant.........
