Toilet Stickers Help Men Target Their Pee

Check out this genius invention intended to help men with wandering pee issues target their urinary flow much, much better. These stickers, which can be placed strategically inside any toilet bowl or urinal, change color when peed on.

Pretty crazy! But then again, if there's a pedometer for dogs, why not one for hamsters?
