No, world toilet day is not about the overly narcissistic use of social media, its a wonderful initiative for something a lot of us in the developed world take for granted and perhaps have rarely given thought to, our access to toilets.
More info at World toilet organisation website

Here is a great article TIME wrote about the history of toilets
World toilet day is an important reminder that basic access to clean non contaminated water, secure enclosed toilets and the spread of disease at the lack of these 2 basic necessities of life, is an every day part of life for billions still on this our planet.
"The urgent run" is a great fundraising initiative and I hope world toilet day and the organisation start to catch on with people, especially those of us lucky to have secure hygenic toilets
