I guess I'd rather the toilet enjoy itself. As long as it doesn't start making little happy noises while I'm trying to poop π°

I find the thought of encouragement more disturbing.
"Come on, buddy you can do it.. yeah, I see that's a big one...."
ghasp
"a REALLY big one. I can see it. Push, don't forget to breathe.. yeah, there ya go, pinch it off. Nice! You've changed your diet, haven't you? Good job!"
Oh hey, suggestions of diet changes for health might be nice, suggestions because they like corn, not nice.
I can't believe I wrote that
I heard this in a sports announcerβs voice, with everyone in the house listening.

It'll moan loudly
I will probably opt to go poop in a bucket out in the yard then
If my toilet were sentient, I would get a non- sentient normal toilet. Idiot OP.
Would you keep the sentient one as a friend?
Sure. Itβs not like I have many friends.
This would probably be the only option but it would still be difficult because for a start there'd have to be a period of time between discovering it was sentient and getting that new toilet and you'd still have to shit and then there's the issue of whether the toilet can survive if removed and if it wants to or is OK with being move/removed. If not, you'd have to basically get an entire new bathroom to place a new toilet in which could be financially difficult.
You vastly overestimate my level of empathy for my talking toilet; Iβd rip that bitch out in a heartbeat
Any strong feelings are undesirable.
Wouldn't you rather bring great joy and pleasure every time you go?
I consistently shit at work, I don't want to disappoint the guy I live with.
If they were sentient I'd put them in the living room, so they could watch TV with us.
Is it just my toilet in my house or all toilets in the world? Could I move and avoid having this problem?
Is killing my toilet an option?
If I have no other choice I guess crave....
If you could kill the toilet, would you really wanna defecate in the dead body of a sentient being?? Thats cold
If I am being honest I don't really want to defecate in an body of a sentient being living or dead. Although I don't know what would be worse.

Toilets do a really important job and it is one that I would not enjoy doing myself.
If it's got a poop fetish then fuck it, I'll host parties and take suggestions on what too feed guests!
I'd want it to love it but hate itself for how much it loves it.
It's disturbing when I have a clever response to the title of a post and then click in to see it already typed out staring back at me.
You sick (and prompt) fuck.
I donβt know what show or year even, but when I was a kid I remember some weird sci fi show or movie with people being on a sort of sentient organic space ship, and the toilets were literally this. Living things that would feast on human waste, iirc including going the extra mile of having tongues to lick the user clean.
I already spend too much time sitting on the toilet. If I got a good tonguing, I may never leave.

Iβd like it to the the personality of Wilma Flintstoneβs vacuum. βItβs a livingβ
Aaand that's enough internet for today.
Crave it. The other way would be cruel.
IRL I'd go somewhere else, of course, but that's not the spirit of the question.
I mean I don't wanna force my toilet to consume my poop, i'm not a capitalist!
Crapitalist*
While your toilet isn't alive to crave your waste, the microbes and such at the waste water facility that your crap goes to do in fact crave and need your waste to survive and propogate. It ain't ice cream, but your crap always ends up as food for something.
Hate me for it. I don't need to hear moaning everytime I need to take a shit.

I wish it was indifferent and defeated, like the appliances in the Flintstones.
You definitely want it to enjoy the experience, otherwise it seems too risky to sit

I could deal with either as long as it doesnβt terrorize the dog.
Both.
When you poo in the woods the poo is instantly covered with bugs and bacteria that love poo and start to break it down.
I guess it would be just the same, you know someone is eating it but it doesnβt really enter your thoughts
Feed me poop daddy uwu
Soil is kinda sentient...and it doesn't "crave" waste but definitely uses it as food to get healthier so let's do that instead of water sports nightmare toilet collection?

Look up skibidi toilet... oh no wait, better yet, don't! :-P
I'd rather they think of it as a normal function, like breathing is for us.
But I guess I'm not into extremes.

If my toilet was sentient, I'd start going to the bathroom outside.
That's cruel if it enjoys it, like not feeding a pet.
no its not, consent is important
I do not consent to having my bodily waste be enjoyed by my toilet
Since its main purpose is to flush bodily waste, I'd be making it extra happy. Since a toilets' nature seems to be wanting to be clean, it will be very happy with me. My diet produces very easy to process waste.
We'd be best buddies, and I would expect some moaning and groaning. Probably posting about it on their assbook pages.
