Bad idea file: Toilet monster
Categories: Development
What do puppies, drum sets, permanent markers, Hungry, Hungry Hippo, and that super loud Fisher-Price popcorn-popper-on-a-stick toy have in common? If you answered that they are all kid gifts from hell, you're right!
I stumbled across a toy/prank/bizarre idea and was struck by what a colossally bad idea it would be around little kids. Not only is the Toilet Monster a pointless germfest, it also has the power to unpotty train kids and make them terrified of all toilets, perhaps for the rest of their lives.
(However, it would have been loads of fun in college!)

I have one. And I've gotta tell ya... the shriek that came from my cousin was *totally* worth the purchase price AND the shipping!!!
Of course, my cousin was 18 at the time, and there were no babies in the house to be frightened off of potty training. Only an aunt (who was the REAL target) who would have screamed louder than my cousin.
