    Don't drink and prime! Seriously ... I ended up with a squatty potty this time last year. 

    Effin bourbon 
    Saw the promo videos of the "Squatty potty", and was curious about the science behind it.  (<<< huh huh huh, he said "behind"!!)
    I grabbed two stacks of phone books, or magazines, or car jacks (can't remember) in my bathroom to test the position out, but quickly realized that you can achieve the same angle between your legs and your torso, just by bending over when you take a dump.
    Sorry that this is probably TMI, but damn it changes everything!  Things just work much better, and you don't need some damn plastic contraption to prop up your legs.  
    FWIW.

    We have 3 in our house and only 2 bathrooms! It changes everything! 
    My wife thought I was crazy when I asked for one for Christmas last year. Then we ended up putting 2 on our wedding registry she loved it so much.

    It's a bit different if you simply bend over while sitting, though it is probably better than sitting upright.

    With your feet propped up so your thighs make an acute angle at the hip, the pelvic floor muscles are more relaxed, and you can generate better intraabdominal pressure. The rectum also straightens out somewhat and comes more forward. 

    More than is necessary for a BBQ form, but couldn't help jumping in :)

    Are those two issues related?

    Is the number of items you buy from your cart proportional to the extent to which your colon evacuates?

    Like, “Whoa!  That’s a big pile. I can buy all 7 of those items.”?
