      Wish I could take credit, but it’s good old search engine work. I searched for bathroom basins and came across several discussions of this same picture. Among all the jokes and random ideas was that link above that finally explained it.

        Impressive dedication. Do you have an important task to do that you’re currently procrastinating? Whenever I show similar levels of commitment to answering trivial questions, that’s what is usually driving me.

          I was winding down to go to sleep, so I put that off for a few minutes. I don’t want to oversell the effort involved though. It was less than 10 minutes of refining search queries and scouring a handful of message threads for related info.

          Or maybe I spend too much time online. :)

      Probably by image searching it, and finding the r/whatisthisthing post where both this pic and the joke are from.
