$19 Million Toilet

I must say that I've enjoyed my share. I still have my great grandmother's "chamber pot" (aka thunder pot), but I use it for perunias.
And I have fond memories of the three holer that was in the backyard when I was growing up. Porcupines sure chewed those seats up, looking for salt that was deposited by sweaty body parts.
But this Russian built $19 million crapper must be the real deal!

Think of all the money NASA coulda saved if they'd taken my suggestion, the one that uses those plastic bags that you get in the produce aisle in supermarkets, and some of the duct tape that I have left over from the anthrax days.

Anyway, now I know what a "royal flush" is all about.

24 karat gold crapper, in the hiphop world if you dont have a 24k crapper you are nobody.

If I remember right his sinks were 24k gold too, and his bathtub. I think the entire bathroom was 12 million, or 3/4 of a Green Monkey, however you want to look at it.

Id much rather have a golden restroom than a golden lawnmower, which is basically what the Green Monkey is

Gosh golly! Just to think of a 24 karat gold crapper...must have layed awake nights just dreamin' about it, waiting for the plumbers to finish, and the metamucil and kale to kick in. I'd be hiphoppin' too!

i'm a bit disappointed that NASA didn't like my ideas. I already mentioned the produce bags and duct tape one, but another one was very good, and it woulda saved the taxpayers a whole lot of dinero ($).
See, I bought a very good canister style vacuum at a yard sale. That baby could suck! Then I took an old western pony saddle, cut a couple of strategic holes in the seat, took the vacuum hose and put a Y attachment on the end, and epoxied it to the underside of the saddle. The "space crapper" cost less than 20 bucks, and I didn't even go for a patent on it.
But NO! NASA wasn't interested. Seems they're more interested in flushing away our hard earned tax dollars.
So I'm done with them. Done. I won't even be sending them my idea for "space toilet paper". That would have saved them another 4 million.
