All I want for Chrismas is some glittering poop?

[Phillyman]

WTF? Is this suppose to be for rich people that can wipe their ass's with $100 bills?

If you've got so much money that you're just looking for new ways to waste it, Tobias Wong and Ju$t Another Rich Kid created the Gold Pill for you. It's a pill dipped in gold and filled with 24-karat gold leaf. You're supposed to eat it "to increase your self-worth." That would be funny if it didn't cost $425 for the joke. Supposedly an added benefit is that it will make your poop sparkle, but no one seems to have proven that part yet (and if you do, please don't send us the pictures). This is either genius social commentary or a brilliant way to bilk rich people out of their money. If Wong's name sounds familiar, it's probably because he also created the $2,000 ccPhone.

well, seeing as having bling braces even when theres nothing wrong with your teeth seems to be a rage in america at the moment (i know a guy who bought them because all his "gangsta" friends did) this will probably sell too

I'd like to punch whoever buys this straight in the face.

Same here. That kind of thing is like literally wiping your ass with thousand dollar bills.

EDIT: Argh, it's exactly what the OP said...

Seriously, whoever buys this deserves to be brutally beaten.

This is just silly. Those people thinking of buying this shit should donate their money to whoever it may help! I mean, come on, how many people are starving to death each day and some others are eating gold?!!

This world is really a nice place nowadays.

QFT!

Nope, it's inert. Gold leaf is a popular decoration on desserts and in drinks because it's sparkly. Maybe if you eat several pounds of the stuff...

 

[enarky]

This is either genius social commentary [...]

Looking at the crap that news outlets call "news" nowadays I'd go for the social commentary. And gullible journalists like the one from Phillyman's quote really fall for that bullshit.

I wouldn't be surprised if some c- or d-class "celebrities" would try to get some of these, just to market themselves.

They aren't actually that popular, I only know a couple people with them. And they aren't braces, they just go over your teeth as a sort of covering.

haha, that's actually what I was thinking even before I entered the topic.
