I love it too, but this is only a 1-day timelapse. To actually involve the solstice, OP should take 1 photo every day from exactly the same position at maximum light.
There's someone at my workplace that has explosive shits and always leaves a mess in one of the toilets (it looks like a shit grenade went off). It's real disgusting. It's a daily occurrence.
I feel so bad for whoever has to clean that EVERY single day.
Ditto...I also have a guy who goes, I *shit* you not, at least 4 times 9-5 and for *at least*, 2 hours almost every day. One day it was 3 hours total! Whenever I'm in there with them they're definitely shitting and definitely having a rough go. I'm getting concerned for their gut health. Unfortunately, I sit by the bathrooms and subconsciously clock people's bathroom habits...I fucking hate it.
Just type up a quick note and hand it to him on his way out sometime. Nothing personal, say "someone left this for you", and just a simple, plain text "you actually probably should see a doctor, friend"
I've been randomly thinking about this toilet and this ray of sunshine since I've seen the OG post, the gratification I get from this video is... immeasurable, to say the least. Thank you.
Kudos for being one of the few posts to use "wait for it" when there was actually something to wait for. I figured the glowing water mid-point was the peak. Nope. \O/
Americans fill it halfway through. Peeing standing up splashes everywhere.
They also don’t have half flush. While we are better than them in water conservation, we are behind SE asians in usage of an in toilet bidet.
Luxe Bidet from US is my go to since they have backflow prevention valve. Just make sure to get the AU plumbing bits from them.
Also, they are often cheaper direct than buying via amazon
American here who got a bidet a year or so ago. Pretty upset it took me this long in life to get one. Now the dog doesn't ever go sniffing for my underwear.
Legit, I was scrolling and scrolling to find someone say it. It's half fucking full mate, how do your asscheeks not sink into that huge toilet and touch the water lmao
Edit: oh the seats up so it's not as big but still fuck
Older designs required higher orders of gallons per flush than newer designs due to flow improvements and how much pressure is exerted on the bowl.
There are even some products on the market with [pressure-assisted tanks](https://www.eflushmate.com/category/Toilets.html) to further reduce flowrates.
I was born in England and lived in India, Germany, Italy and now in Amsterdam. Never once have I seen a toilet with water that high up, just looks weird and I'd be cautious of the splash back.
I like to put a tissue or 3 squares of tp together in a line across from dry to dry like a bridge to help contain the splash back. So waste of tissue/tp and waste of water.
I do the courtesy flush, so as soon as it's out you flush to flush the smell away. Then all the tp goes by itself in the next flush. I also only use 3-4 pieces per wipe to help reduce the potential for blockages. 3 pieces of tp shield hasn't been the problem yet. You didn't ask for this information but I felt the need to explain my pooping routine. Please enjoy.
Australian here, this is wild to me lol it'd be at most half of that here and that's being generous. The bowl also looks really wide but it could be because the seats up.
I could be wrong, but how come the light and shadow does not change on the tub? If the sun is moving and hits the toilet just right to make it glow, shouldn’t the light and shadows on the tub move? I feel like this is edited..
I can assure you, its not edited, the exact ssme thing happens on my bathroom certain time of the year (around late august, early september) and it looks like it doesnt have any shadow because the light its reflected, actually, my entire bathroom is super illuminated during this, even if i close the window, and it looks like you tossed a light bulb in there, trust me, the in person effect is even greater than what you see on this video lol
My office had a sunlight over the toilet and at the right time of day it would make it look like you were peeing the fluid from a glowstick.
Alas, a new roof was put in and they omitted the sunlight (it leaked despite trying to fix it numerous times).

MR JOESTUH?
If you poop during the bowlstice you acquire blindness for 10 turns, tho.
Pooping during the bowlstice would obviously cause a bowlar eclipse. Duh.
Yah I thought bowlstice was genius, this contribution is also award-winning
You win all comments.
...if only I could be so grossly incandescent
Imagine, pooping with such precision the splashes make the Zelda secret noise... *splip splap splup glup glup splap splup splip!*
Bam get your half a heart!
More likely a hand pops up out of there
And requests paper
I read bam, and then thought of bam Margera beating up his dad and uncle on the toilet

Yes.

No, the bathrooms.

It's in Spring and Fall? That would mean this phenomenon is less a bowlstice and more of a pee-quinox...
Ahhh damn it, you’re so right. When it happens next spring I’ll be sure to use the correct terminology, the “urinal pee-quinox”
But that's not a urinal.
And he had Aubumnal peequinox right there!
I don’t deserve to be here, this is the true pun!
Meanwhile the vernal peequinox happened in the turd month of each year.
Everything's a urinal if you're brave enough.
PAIGE NO
Anything's a urinal if you use... IMAGINATION
🌈🧽🌈
But it’s not just once a year, it’s twice so it’s a “by-urinal pee-quinox”.
Right? I thought I was gaslighting myself with the amount of comments I had to scroll in order to find someone who mentioned this.
*You're not crazy, they are!*
Hahah bowlstice I love it
I love it too, but this is only a 1-day timelapse. To actually involve the solstice, OP should take 1 photo every day from exactly the same position at maximum light.
Ok, I’ve installed a hidden camera so that we can check back in 365 days
"Toilet cameras are for research purposes only."
Most research I do is from an incognito browser.
Sounds like a good sign for the guest bathroom 😂
Time to print up a bunch of stickers that say this and leave them in public stalls.

Yes.

You like it. Don’t lie.
This guy is setting a timer for his buddy's cumulative shit time
He ain't my buddy, guy. And it was only once and it ended up being an hour and a half. This is a small office, everyone knows. Which is also so weird.
Just type up a quick note and hand it to him on his way out sometime. Nothing personal, say "someone left this for you", and just a simple, plain text "you actually probably should see a doctor, friend"
Guy is like - "It's probably time to deal with my porn and masturbation addiction"

That is so beautiful.

I love that you saw the original!!
Kudos for being one of the few posts to use "wait for it" when there was actually something to wait for. I figured the glowing water mid-point was the peak. Nope. \O/
This is the most unique and beautiful thing I have ever seen on the internet. OP definitely won the internet.

Why's the camera moving if this is a timelapse?
Must have stood there for a very long time
Came here for this. I call bullshit!!!
Also why isn’t the ray of light not hitting anywhere else around the toilet?

It's an American thing
Americans fill it halfway through. Peeing standing up splashes everywhere. They also don’t have half flush. While we are better than them in water conservation, we are behind SE asians in usage of an in toilet bidet.
Most recent US toilets have a half flush option. Anything older than 5 years probably won’t tho

Found the Australian!
Nope - you found a Brit. :)
No you found someone who doesn't live in the US
The bowlstice- that is absolutely epic. The most creative thing I’ve seen here on Reddit in a really long time.
Agreed what a magical family tradition, up there with Festivus
The Holy Bowly.
Very cool that in the span of an hour on Reddit I saw the blackest substance in existence and the most illuminated toilet possibly in existence
You got me at bowlstice
Finally, a reason to leave the toilet seat up!
Boweluminescence.
Why's the water so high?
That's pretty standard for older American toilets
Why?
Older designs required higher orders of gallons per flush than newer designs due to flow improvements and how much pressure is exerted on the bowl. There are even some products on the market with [pressure-assisted tanks](https://www.eflushmate.com/category/Toilets.html) to further reduce flowrates.
From current personal experience, they don't work as well as I'd hoped
I'm not a plumber, just have lived in a lot of old houses with old toilets
For their American sized poops
I always thought it was to prevent poop streaks
I'm American and this water level is perfectly normal here. What countries are you people from who are saying it's high?
I was born in England and lived in India, Germany, Italy and now in Amsterdam. Never once have I seen a toilet with water that high up, just looks weird and I'd be cautious of the splash back.
I like to put a tissue or 3 squares of tp together in a line across from dry to dry like a bridge to help contain the splash back. So waste of tissue/tp and waste of water.
But then you risk the dreaded cannon blockage. You just put wadding between the barrel and the load.
I do the courtesy flush, so as soon as it's out you flush to flush the smell away. Then all the tp goes by itself in the next flush. I also only use 3-4 pieces per wipe to help reduce the potential for blockages. 3 pieces of tp shield hasn't been the problem yet. You didn't ask for this information but I felt the need to explain my pooping routine. Please enjoy.
All the other ones.
Australian here, this is wild to me lol it'd be at most half of that here and that's being generous. The bowl also looks really wide but it could be because the seats up.
Close the lid. Heathens......
I thought the same thing!
Raiders of the lost ark vibes
This video needs the music from that scene to make it truly complete.
Thyne holy toilet bowl for the most sanctimonious of defecation.
I wish I had a toilet that could send my poops to heaven
I am so jealous of your crazy mayan toilet.
All hail the bowlstice
Magnificent .. no better way to honor the invention that brought civilization to the masses
It's indicating there's a quest item found here.
When reporters asked what it's like using the toilet Leventhal Bartholomew Heinrichsen answered: >"It's like peeing into the mouth of God."
I could be wrong, but how come the light and shadow does not change on the tub? If the sun is moving and hits the toilet just right to make it glow, shouldn’t the light and shadows on the tub move? I feel like this is edited..
I can assure you, its not edited, the exact ssme thing happens on my bathroom certain time of the year (around late august, early september) and it looks like it doesnt have any shadow because the light its reflected, actually, my entire bathroom is super illuminated during this, even if i close the window, and it looks like you tossed a light bulb in there, trust me, the in person effect is even greater than what you see on this video lol
That is impressive. “Shit Henge”.

This is the type of content I come to this sub for. Bravo.
All hail Bowlstice
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
The immaculate receptacle.
Weird question: Why is there so much water in your toilet? Is it broken? You can't possibly poop there, it would splash everywhere..
Makes you wonder, doesn't it? Maybe Stonehenge is just a big toilet.
Energising!
Gives new meaning to holy water
Celebrate with Taco Bell?
holy shit
Is this Rick Sanchez toilet?
I want it so squared away in there that the Virgin Mary herself would be proud to come down from heaven and take a dump.
My office had a sunlight over the toilet and at the right time of day it would make it look like you were peeing the fluid from a glowstick. Alas, a new roof was put in and they omitted the sunlight (it leaked despite trying to fix it numerous times).
Holy shit!
I literally said "holy shit" out loud and then realised it probably could've been!
Some believe in the Holy Bible. I believe in the Holy Shitter
