Wait a second, – $2618 to look like a urinal? I thought you were supposed to pay me to be a toilet. Boy, things sure have changed since I was in college.
I have no idea if urinals normally have one, having never looked closely enough, but the dress is actually based on Marcel Duchamp’s Fountain which has a spout. Hence the spout. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain_%28Duchamp%29
It’s not actually a spout. Duchamp laid the urinal on its back. That’s where the pipe for the water inflow hooks up.
Aaaaaand my failed attempt at a Master’s in Art History is finally of some use.
Wow, that was so easy I can’t believe I missed it.
Just once I wish I had seven penises so I could finally know the joys of urinal use. I’m sick of using the same contraption for all my waste allocation. I want a new thing to pee in!
(Thanks, whimsiclekrissery. I thought you were going to link to the female urinal–I went to Catholic school in the 60s and the toilets there were odd–instead of an oblong seat/top, the front extended out a few inches (maybe 7) and was narrow. I found out later it was for women to pee standing up and not having to sit down or squat.)
@MugsyDoodle: One night another nurse called me in tears because the bathroom of the home she was in was so nasty that she didn’t want to get anywhere near the toilet. I found this and recommended it to her, but in a pinch you could fold one out of a paper grocery bag .. assuming you can find one.
My college dorm was one of the oldest on campus, part of a pair joined by the dining commons. Originally, in the pre-coed-dorm era the other dorm was the women’s one, and ours was the men’s dorm.
They hadn’t bothered doing any remodeling when the dorms went coed, so our womens’ bathroom had an alcove with six urinals. They were more toilet-like than the one Duchamp used for “Fountain.” I heard from other girls that they were useful for puking in.
There was also a story about a foreign exchange student thinking they actually *were* really weird toilets and commenting how uncomfortable they were to use, but it may have been a dorm legend.
It actually looks very useful for camping. But some people work hard to ruin an O.K idea. Note the “model” looking so happy about having people taking her pictue while she is peeing (maybe she’d like the dress?), why is she peeing at the side of a busy roadm & why don’t her pants legs match. I also think that these people went to an Etsy workshit
“The P-Mate is covered with a 4-leaf clover design as it is good luck to have one with you when you are in need.” How cute (gag) and
“The P-Mate does NOT get all wet and soggy after use. You can easily slip it back into a pocket or bag…POCKET? I think not. Not an aroma I’d want to be wafting.
There really was a Golden Showers Lane on base housing at the Naval Communications Station Guam. Even in the early eighties it generated a chortle whenever we were dispatched to take a report.
I think she’d be really upset. I think most girls who would wear something like this would do it for capital-F Fashion and would not have a sense of humor about it. The people who would wear it for humor would never spend such a ridiculous amount for it.
Weeell, I guess that is one way to make sure no one steals your lunch at work. The sad thing is that I felt pretty confident that something was out there.
Great, now I’ve got Prince’s (or whatever the fuck he calls himself today)voice singing “Raspberry Bidet” in my head. It is really annoying the other voices.
In my city, there was a bar that had a urinal shaped like a woman’s mouth. City Council was up in arms about it. Finally got it removed from the bar, called it “demeaning to women”. I didn’t find it demeaning. Stupid maybe, but not demeaning. But this dress actually does kinda piss me off.
Or is the teardrop like the prison tat concept? Lady Gaga is going to be mad someone thought of this first. But it does have “intense” sequin and embroidery work, as opposed to the “slacker” work most urinal dress designers put out these days.
Awww, the sheep logo, how cute. As we all know, people who buy their clothes from mainstream retail stores are all stupid, mindless sheep just being brainwashed by the man and the bleeding edge, independent fashion isn’t at all overpriced or ridiculously ugly or impractical.
If you noticed, it is only for sizes 2-8. I you couldn’t wear vulva panties, you are also denied the joy of wear this. Just another example to support my belief that there is a plot to make petite persons pay gobs of money to look asinine.
What always pisses me off (no pun intended, but there it is) is when people make shit and think they can charge ridiculous amounts of money just because they call themselves designers or the idea is unusual. I’m a goldsmith apprentice, and this shit (oh, look, another toilet reference) goes on in that business, too.
You can charge outrageous prices for good design and good craftsmanship. If that involves a toilet somehow, I might not wear it, but I can respect it.
Proof that just because something can be made, doesn’t mean it should be. Which describes about half the stuff on Etsy, actually. The other half is resellers.
At least on Etsy it is one deluded person mking crap that they (and maybe their friend or mom) thinks is worthwhile. The sad thing here is that it is international fuckery, an entired business, not sanitation related, that based on crap.
It would be embarrassing if one person wore this to a party. Although a shit or bathroom themed party might be fun. At least you wouldn’t have to go to far to puke from too much partying.
I had to switch browsers because I couldn’t log in but THIS IS SOMETHING I POSTED!! I’m so excited something I shared on the Facebook page made it!!! Yay!
If someone did it before me or you found it on your own I’m still going to pretend it was me alone. Delusions of grandeur baby.
In other news, a few years ago I was at a 4th of July fireworks show with some friends and their then 5-year-old daughter. The show was using those huge gold ones that crackle as they come down, and the 5yo says: “It’s like there are beautiful golden showers falling all over me.” Needless to say, another friend and I had to leave and hide until we were done laughing until we cried.
Agreed. Drunk people pee everywhere. I worked in goth bars for over 5 years. I know the insanity which is the drunk goth ALL too well. It’s no wonder I have hardly set foot in one since I quit.
Let’s really improve things. Rancid chickenhead mask on face, TP “koozy” hanging off arm, and chewed gum doily pasted on top of head. The “I’d Rather Be F-ing” guy could dance around her. C’mon I don’t know how to photoshop. You people are my lifeline.
You and my girlfriend would get along. I worry sometimes about her getting in trouble for the stuff that comes out of her mouth, but it’s all so effing funny that nobody can stop laughing long enough to be angry that she said something way beyond non-pc. I don’t get it, but whatever. There’s no hate behind it, and that’s what is important!
My husband is disabled. He knows he’s disabled and hates it when he’s called “differently-abled” and other bullshit labels. He had a stroke when he was 28 (he’s 44 now). Along with being paralyzed on his right side, he has speech and communication disorders that make him say the funniest, fucked-up shit ever. I write a blog about him called “Conversations with the Disabled Guy” (linked in my screen name). He’s fully aware I call him that online, he’s fully aware I write about him, take photos, post videos. I get his permission before I share with the entirety of the Internet. Even the videos where I hide the fact I’m filming. I show him first and if he’s cool with it, then everyone gets to see it.
There’s a Facebook group for the blog. HK helped us raise money to send our kid to NYC because he builds things from wood- we sold birdhouses he made (and my photos because that’s what I do).
The fact that he’s disabled is relevant to everything.
I’m sorry if I offended, this was not a blog I was aware of and I hadn’t ever seen any of your previous Regretsy posts. Anyway, I’ve started reading your blog.
I think they should engage in some really innovative cross-marketing. For instance, at the market where we buy all the ingredients when we cook Indian food, sitting on the counter next to the cash register was a product called “Gentle Bidet: The Jet Spray Butt Cleaner.” Considering how we feel after eating Indian food sometimes, I thought it was brilliant. Though using “gentle” and “jet spray” in the same product description threw me off.
I just facepalmed so hard I got a concussion. The whole point of Duchamp’s “Fountain” was that it was a readymade and not made by hand. That’s like putting Che Guevara’s face on a shitload of cheap mass-produced merchandise.
Jim Fitzpatrick created the poster based on a photograph by Korda (unknown at the time). Fitzpatrick chose to keep his image of Che free of copyright because he wanted it to be reproduced.
At first glance I thought this was an athletic cup and I thought Wow, someone would have to have delusions of grandeur regarding their manhood to buy this!
Also, why is nude apparel always so hideous? That sequined abomination looks like someone wearing a white bra and panties with nipples and pubic hair on them, not like the Tom Wesselmann nude they attribute it to, where the model has tan lines. Plus it’s ugly and way overpriced.
I don’t know if I should give this a thumbs up or down… Usually it’s so clear to me. This is a new category — I wish there was a third thing to click on… one that just has a screaming face. Instead, I’ll just offer this response:
Where the hell do they get those models? They all look like they walked into a room with a really bad smell. Just what makes me buy a godawfully ugly and expensive dress.
I’m pretty damn fat, if I wore that I’d look like a bathtub, and then hipsters would try to sit in me and things would go even further downhill from there.
Suprised, dismayed, disgusted yes, I can still be all these things, but I foolishly believed my days of being shocked were left in my distant youth. Now that the initial shock of a urinal dress…A URINAL DRESS!…is over, alright not over but waning, I’m shocked that I was shocked, and I think I’m feeling a little younger, and I thank you.
June 10, 2011 at 10:41 am
I love her spout.
June 10, 2011 at 1:42 pm
I’m scared to ask, but does a urinal have a spout? I thought it just flushed down the drain in the bottom, no need for a spout. Or???
June 10, 2011 at 4:17 pm
No spout, but the do on occasion overflow when flushed.
June 10, 2011 at 4:59 pm
I have no idea if urinals normally have one, having never looked closely enough, but the dress is actually based on Marcel Duchamp’s Fountain which has a spout. Hence the spout.

June 10, 2011 at 10:59 am
@Rev: “Urine is for amateurs” That’s your analysis.
I don’t like to pee in public restrooms, you can bet I’d never be able to mistake this for a place to go.
June 10, 2011 at 11:06 am

June 10, 2011 at 11:19 am
I’m fairly sure that’s why she’s got the make-up teardrop. She’s already crying on the inside.
June 10, 2011 at 12:38 pm
Then she’d be off looking for a hot janitor! That’s the real reason why she’s wearing this….
June 10, 2011 at 1:49 pm
I think she’d be really upset. I think most girls who would wear something like this would do it for capital-F Fashion and would not have a sense of humor about it. The people who would wear it for humor would never spend such a ridiculous amount for it.

It’s the teardrop makeup that really sells it.
June 10, 2011 at 10:44 am
I just noticed the make-up tear under her eye. Is that because she’s sad she has to wear that ridiculous sequined get-up or is it some pee splatter?
June 10, 2011 at 11:46 am
Pee splatter. No question.
June 10, 2011 at 10:44 am

QUICK you guys there are only 5!!! Do you think they could them all to line up against a wall together?
June 10, 2011 at 11:04 am
Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if two people wore THIS dress to a party?
June 10, 2011 at 11:07 am
What a gaffe!
June 10, 2011 at 11:21 am
It would be embarrassing if one person wore this to a party. Although a shit or bathroom themed party might be fun. At least you wouldn’t have to go to far to puke from too much partying.
June 10, 2011 at 10:57 am
I had to switch browsers because I couldn’t log in but THIS IS SOMETHING I POSTED!! I’m so excited something I shared on the Facebook page made it!!! Yay!
If someone did it before me or you found it on your own I’m still going to pretend it was me alone. Delusions of grandeur baby.

It looks like someone took the foam packing from the box their TV came in and colored on it with a sharpie.
I think the spout is hysterical, though.

Can someone please photoshop a Matryoshka doll in there? It would be a perfect fit and I just can’t stop imagining it.

Where’s her owl TP “coozy”?!?
In other news, a few years ago I was at a 4th of July fireworks show with some friends and their then 5-year-old daughter. The show was using those huge gold ones that crackle as they come down, and the 5yo says: “It’s like there are beautiful golden showers falling all over me.” Needless to say, another friend and I had to leave and hide until we were done laughing until we cried.
June 10, 2011 at 11:02 am
If I’m about to pay that much for a dress, I expect there to be an apostrophe in the ‘Its’ of the description.
June 10, 2011 at 11:21 am
I expect the whole thing to be sequins, none of this gimp bullshit.
June 10, 2011 at 11:02 am
Dressing for the Romeo Void reunion concert: you are implementing incorrect interventions.
June 10, 2011 at 11:05 am
Well, here’s one dress that should never, ever, ever be worn around drunk people.
June 10, 2011 at 12:49 pm
Agreed. Drunk people pee everywhere. I worked in goth bars for over 5 years. I know the insanity which is the drunk goth ALL too well. It’s no wonder I have hardly set foot in one since I quit.
June 10, 2011 at 1:10 pm
Hey there are people out there that like that kind of thing. I’m assuming that they are the market for the “dress?”
June 10, 2011 at 11:06 am
Let’s really improve things. Rancid chickenhead mask on face, TP “koozy” hanging off arm, and chewed gum doily pasted on top of head. The “I’d Rather Be F-ing” guy could dance around her. C’mon I don’t know how to photoshop. You people are my lifeline.
June 10, 2011 at 1:19 pm
Level 4 cat, on the other hand, is way too good to be seen with this bullshit.
June 10, 2011 at 4:23 pm
Don’t forget to make it a “watercolor” from your laser printer.
June 10, 2011 at 11:07 am
The disabled guy walked by and I said, “Look, a urinal dress.”
He stopped walking for a second, replied, “That’s fuckin’ stupid.” and continued on.
I told him the cost and he said: “People are fuckin’ stupid.”
Yes, sir, they are.

June 10, 2011 at 12:22 pm
We’re getting butthurt all over the place lately. Let’s just everyone calm down and stop this political correctness. It sucks all the fun out of life.
June 10, 2011 at 12:49 pm
“Sucking the fun out of life” is that some sort of anti-vampire sentiment? Do you have something against the living-challenged?
June 10, 2011 at 12:53 pm
You and my girlfriend would get along. I worry sometimes about her getting in trouble for the stuff that comes out of her mouth, but it’s all so effing funny that nobody can stop laughing long enough to be angry that she said something way beyond non-pc. I don’t get it, but whatever. There’s no hate behind it, and that’s what is important!
June 10, 2011 at 1:11 pm

I wouldn’t say I was “butthurt”… more curious how that fit in.

@whimsiclekrissery
Oh dear. It didn’t come off that way. Or I’m PMS-ing more than usual this month.
On the bright side, it looks like we’re getting a sampler out of it!
June 10, 2011 at 1:56 pm
My husband is disabled. He knows he’s disabled and hates it when he’s called “differently-abled” and other bullshit labels. He had a stroke when he was 28 (he’s 44 now). Along with being paralyzed on his right side, he has speech and communication disorders that make him say the funniest, fucked-up shit ever. I write a blog about him called “Conversations with the Disabled Guy” (linked in my screen name). He’s fully aware I call him that online, he’s fully aware I write about him, take photos, post videos. I get his permission before I share with the entirety of the Internet. Even the videos where I hide the fact I’m filming. I show him first and if he’s cool with it, then everyone gets to see it.
There’s a Facebook group for the blog. HK helped us raise money to send our kid to NYC because he builds things from wood- we sold birdhouses he made (and my photos because that’s what I do).
The fact that he’s disabled is relevant to everything.
June 10, 2011 at 2:05 pm
I just stepped outside to tell him about the comments here (he’s still rebuilding the deck, the rain kept him indoors for two days).
I enthusiastically said: “You’re exceptional!”
He said: “I know *sigh*”
I said: “You’re differently-abled!”
He replied, “That’s right. I’m better than you.”
And then he said, “Move, you’re standing on my wood.” Because I was. Not that wood, but you know, the actual wood he’s using on the deck.
Now you know. The Disabled Guy likes playing with his wood. One-handed.
June 10, 2011 at 7:22 pm
I did a video with the disabled guy…

June 10, 2011 at 9:38 pm
I’m sorry if I offended, this was not a blog I was aware of and I hadn’t ever seen any of your previous Regretsy posts. Anyway, I’ve started reading your blog.
June 11, 2011 at 1:55 pm
Hey, I got a blog out of it and I got the disabled guy to do a video (something that takes A LOT of convincing), so everything’s cool.
For what its worth, I thumbs-upped your original comment.
June 10, 2011 at 11:11 am
I think they should engage in some really innovative cross-marketing. For instance, at the market where we buy all the ingredients when we cook Indian food, sitting on the counter next to the cash register was a product called “Gentle Bidet: The Jet Spray Butt Cleaner.” Considering how we feel after eating Indian food sometimes, I thought it was brilliant. Though using “gentle” and “jet spray” in the same product description threw me off.
June 10, 2011 at 12:57 pm
Using “jet spray” and “butt” in the same product description made me giggle like a 12-year-old.
June 10, 2011 at 1:46 pm
You want to giggle?
Try “fecal mist jet spray”
June 10, 2011 at 11:18 am
“Urinal dress inspired by Duchamp. Hand made”
I just facepalmed so hard I got a concussion. The whole point of Duchamp’s “Fountain” was that it was a readymade and not made by hand. That’s like putting Che Guevara’s face on a shitload of cheap mass-produced merchandise.
Oh wait.
June 10, 2011 at 11:21 am
My husband has a che guevara shirt that is a picture of che guevara wearing a che guevara shirt, infinitely meta.
June 10, 2011 at 1:52 pm
You mean Jim Fitzpatrick’s DRAWING of Che Guevara’s face. (I’m a huge fan of Jim’s Celtic art and his 70′s album covers)
June 10, 2011 at 2:13 pm
http://store.theonion.com/product/che-wearing-che-tshirt-tshirt,115/ I believe this is a vector created from a photograph actually.
June 10, 2011 at 2:48 pm
The story gets a little more meta.
Jim Fitzpatrick created the poster based on a photograph by Korda (unknown at the time). Fitzpatrick chose to keep his image of Che free of copyright because he wanted it to be reproduced.

Someone should tell them they’re a couple years behind;

Um. I need mental wash to make the image of that girl playing with her fathers fake balls go away.
June 10, 2011 at 1:35 pm
Also, why is nude apparel always so hideous? That sequined abomination looks like someone wearing a white bra and panties with nipples and pubic hair on them, not like the Tom Wesselmann nude they attribute it to, where the model has tan lines. Plus it’s ugly and way overpriced.
June 10, 2011 at 11:37 am
This is deeply disturbing.
June 10, 2011 at 12:05 pm
I don’t know if I should give this a thumbs up or down… Usually it’s so clear to me. This is a new category — I wish there was a third thing to click on… one that just has a screaming face. Instead, I’ll just offer this response:

What the fucking HELL? And what icraftoncrack said times 1000.
June 10, 2011 at 11:36 am
I suppose he’s never, you know, been with a lady (wink wink, nudge nudge), hence the transparent yet opaque lingerie.
June 10, 2011 at 12:16 pm
That poor model’s expression is hilarious. You just know she’s thinking about her paycheck for consolation.
(Be sure to mouse-over zoom for the full effect.)
June 10, 2011 at 12:21 pm
Oh, god, this one is also amusing. And the model’s expression is even more so.
June 10, 2011 at 1:12 pm
Oh, that’s so special…
June 10, 2011 at 1:20 pm
My aunt once made a bikini out of three of those actual flowers. Fortunately, I wasn’t alive to see it.
June 10, 2011 at 1:25 pm
Where the hell do they get those models? They all look like they walked into a room with a really bad smell. Just what makes me buy a godawfully ugly and expensive dress.
June 10, 2011 at 9:49 pm
I prefer the marine penis.
June 10, 2011 at 12:21 pm
That only works for me if I can wear it with the vulva panties.

June 10, 2011 at 1:59 pm
Why put tan lines on it?
June 10, 2011 at 11:25 am
Is that a teardrop in the corner of her left eye? Even the model is humiliated.
June 10, 2011 at 1:19 pm
Nah, it’s a tiny drawing of her dress.
June 10, 2011 at 11:25 am
I always tell people it’s better to be pissed off than pissed on…..now I’m not so sure that’s appropriate.

My girl likes to potty all the time, potty all the time.
June 10, 2011 at 11:33 am
I’m pretty damn fat, if I wore that I’d look like a bathtub, and then hipsters would try to sit in me and things would go even further downhill from there.
June 10, 2011 at 10:31 pm
Thank you for a wonderful mental visual of sad hipster trying to sit in a urinal dress – I’m still laughing every time I think about it.
June 10, 2011 at 11:37 am
um, where do you put the urinal deodorant bar?

June 10, 2011 at 12:00 pm

I can hardly wait till later today - I’m hoping for dog poop streaked carpet art.
June 10, 2011 at 12:49 pm
Heehee, is that photobombing or carpetbombing?
June 10, 2011 at 1:57 pm
You can use it multipurpose!

I found a buyer!!!!!
June 10, 2011 at 3:22 pm
Suprised, dismayed, disgusted yes, I can still be all these things, but I foolishly believed my days of being shocked were left in my distant youth. Now that the initial shock of a urinal dress…A URINAL DRESS!…is over, alright not over but waning, I’m shocked that I was shocked, and I think I’m feeling a little younger, and I thank you.
June 10, 2011 at 3:28 pm
