It wouldn't at all be surprising that even after finishing the promotional video for AirWC, people won't realize social media toilet rentals are a clever spoof. A hilarious comment on the rise of the sharing economy, AirWC is an app that helps people locate clean and intimate washrooms when needed at a moment's notice.
The social media toilet rentals goes by the motto, "Cause taking a dump doesn't mean you have to be in one." Not only does the AirWC app provide people with great options wherever they are, complete with detailed descriptions of the water closets, there is also a premium service for those who want to take it to the next level. The owner of the toilet will provide emotional support at an extra cost.
