It has been said that you can judge a people by the infomercials created in hopes of separating them from their money. So, oops, Americans, the inventors think we need these disgusting contraptions just to complete the most basic personal hygiene:

“Your bottom! Between your legs!” Yes, WE GET THE IDEA. Please just stop:

Noted, but there has to be some other way. (Thanks for the tip, Katharine!)

  4. Finally, i am so tired of bending over and having to exert myself to get clean. This will have to do until we perfect disposable latex full-body suits that we can just strip off and toss at the end of the day.

  5. Is the reason they used larger less attractive models because
    A. They’re pandering to fat people
    B. They couldn’t afford attractive models, or
    C. They don’t understand basic marketing skills.

    Honestly, it could be any of them.

  13. It’s hard to bend over to wash your own fucking feet when you’re teabagging.

    when i clicked play, i was taking advil and drinking water, and just as i was about to swallow a pill, he shoved his foot in that thing-needless to say, there is now advil and water EVERYWHERE

  15. This commercial tells me a lot. It tells me that this product was designed for fatties, those who bedazzle their fingernails, and people who only buy things that are PROUDLY MADE IN AMERICA. Fortunately, I am all of those things.

    I’m going to name mine Gwen. Get it? Because it’s name is Gwen, and it’s here to warsh my vagina.
