Stuff We Want: Potty Putter, Mini Golf for Your Longest Meeting of the Day
You were going to scroll the same three apps in there anyway. Might as well work on your short game.

Let's be honest about what happens in there. You sit down "for a minute," open your phone, and resurface 25 minutes later with numb legs and strong opinions about a stranger's kitchen remodel.
What if that time built a skill instead?
Meet the Potty Putter Toilet Time Golf Game from Fairly Odd Novelties. It turns your bathroom into a tiny putting course, so you can practice your stroke while you, as the listing so gracefully puts it, answer nature's call.
The listing photo shows the whole setup: a green putting mat with a cutout that hugs the base of the toilet, a putter, two golf balls, a cup with a flag marked number 2 (of course it is) and a Do Not Disturb door hanger. The brand calls it an all-inclusive set, so there's nothing else to buy before your first round.
The sales pitch is that it helps your short game. We can't promise that. We can promise that your putting will be the only thing in that room anyone wants to talk about.
It's also the rare gag gift that doesn't go straight into a closet. It lives right where the recipient will see it every single day, which is either a thoughtful gesture or a declaration of war, depending on the friend.
Best part: the next time your roommate asks what took so long, you can just say "I was on the back nine."
Who it's for
- The golfer in your life who already talks about golf in every room of the house. Now there's one more room.
- White elephant and stocking stuffer shoppers who want the gift everyone fights over.
- Anyone with a guest bathroom that could use a conversation starter.
Who should skip it
- Tiny bathrooms with zero spare room. The mat needs room around the toilet, and the listing doesn't list exact mat dimensions, so eyeball your space.
- You want real putting practice. This is a party gag first. A full practice green belongs in the garage.
