Hello Kitty Toilet Sign

What is it about Hello Kitty and toilets? She has a whole line of Hello Kitty toilet paper and while it really didn’t surprise me that there was a Hello Kitty toilet, the Hello Kitty urinal target and Hello Kitty electronic toilet paper dispenser simply confirmed that the evil feline likes her face everywhere. Then, of course, there is our disaster of a bathroom. So I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that there are also Hello Kitty (and Dear Daniel) toilet signs:

As a man, the Hello Kittification of my bodily functions is extremely disturbing. No matter what remedies Hello Kitty tries, it’s never going to be “cute” and there’s really no reason to pretend it ever could be. Of course, my wife doesn’t believe that for a second (but then the Japanese have buttons on their toilets that make a flushing noise so that you can’t hear bodily functions as well – it won’t surprise me if the Hello Kitty theme song replaces these flushing noises someday).

It’s bad enough (and obviously a sign that there’s something terribly wrong in the world) when a man can’t sit down to take a dump without Hello Kitty all around, but now we actually have Hello Kitty telling us where to do so…which pretty much sums up Hello Kitty Hell…

Sent in by deniz and brightspring, both of who should have to live with Hello Kitty bathrooms as bad as mine for the rest of their lives for even considering it would be a good idea to send me these photos…

  1. Ugh! Is that tacky or what? I’ve been an avid reader of your blog over the past few weeks and I love it.

    I used to love Hello Kitty as a kid, heck I still like some items here and there (My sis gifted me a t-shirt). But I could NOT live in the kind of hell you live in. Ther IS such a thing as too much cuteness.
    And those toilet signs look really stupid

  2. It kind of looks like Hello Kitty is devouring them from the head down, no? I’m imagining that she can somehow dislocate her jaw, and the rest of her body and lower jaw is miraculously hanging behind the person. That’s quite an appropriate image for Hello Kitty, no?

  3. Squat or sit, Hello Kitty has it covered.

    The second they go into pet products as a brand spin off ( and I don’t mean the occasional HK mask for pets- Hello Kitty cat litter, toys, etc) Sanrio will make another billion.

    All that’s left for Sanrio and people is HK caskets!

  4. I’ve come to realize something looking at your blog….Hell Kitty is going to do what no one else could, take over the world. And I bought into it!! Despite that realization I still cant say no when the wifey wants HK…but atleast I’m not in your hell man.

  5. stupid gaijin question – what’s a Japanese style loo?

    the image is just a bit. . . uninformative. . .

    They are basically “squat” style toilets. Instead of sitting on a toilet seat, you squat over it. If you haven’t grown up using them, it takes a bit of practice…

    These exist in India and we call them indian style toilets, it’s a hole in the ground and you squat on them…probably the only toilet that will have both men and women on an equal stand as it’s practically impossible to pee without creating a catastrophy around it. Unless you grew up using them all the time…it’s impossible to use with grace. My old flat had those only and I hated every minutes of them…plus try squatting and peeing while drunk on those.

  7. huh. Sounds like what I had to do camping. Except that you had to dig your own hole.

    How. . . yuck.

    However, I always had good aim. 🙂
