Comfort and convenience are on the rise in America's society. People want faster service, with the same or even better quality. Opulence is also particularly essential; however, efficiency is also required to accompany its presence. Most products have undergone dramatic changes in order to please the ever-growing demand for these luxuries. Telephones changed into cellular phones. Note pads transformed, upgraded, and turned into personal data assistants. Humongous personal computers downsized to a 4-ounce laptop. However, a device has refused to undergo the immense technological change to provide improved leisure and expediency: the toilet.
The toilet has not changed its basic structure or function since its invention; there are still a great number of consumers for the product. Although size and mobility cannot be changed drastically, an improvement for greater amounts of extravagance and expediency should be insisted upon in order to bring the toilet into the 21st century. If these changes do not occur very soon, I fear its users may find it obsolete and even hazardous to their health.
One problem with the toilet is its lack of comfort. Warmed toilet seats are not a new idea "many of the world's wealthy already own them. Nevertheless, no human being should ever be subject to the torture of a chilled toilet seat. The horror of a cold toilet seat may have already taken the life of the greatest musician ever known to man, Elvis Presley. Many speculate that the King of Rock and Roll died due to a heart attack caused by a drug overdose. However, what if drugs did not cause Elvis's heart attack? What if the shock of a cold toilet seat caused the King's premature death? I know if my grandmother found out that a cold toilet seat killed Elvis, she would probably put every cold toilet seat in sight to death. If my theory is correct, maybe America should stop its war on drugs and start a war on cold toilet seats.
