A new invention wants to help you get your s--t together.

The Squatty Potty is trying to change the way people poop, and they're using a prince, a unicorn and ice cream to spread the word.

A viral ad for the crap-centric company's stool for stools by the Harmon Brothers featured a unicorn squatting and making rainbow ice cream droppings.

The ice cream, which represented poop, was cramped inside the unicorn's bowels while sitting on a traditional toilet, because of the angle it was sitting at. The Squatty Potty, the ad promised, to fix that, by putting toilet-sitters in a more natural pose, to let the "ice cream" flow free.

It does what they say it does and it's actually healthy to use this posture as opposed to just sitting. You could just use a step stool (no pun intended) but these fit around the bottom of the toilet and aren't as much in the way as a stool.

don't worry, they'll tell you!

an acquaintance recently got a SP as well as a bidet attachment for his toilet. i've never seen anybody so eager for other people to take a dump at their house.
