Lotta lakes must be iced over already.

It's only December 10th and the threads are already starting to go down the toilet.

:DWhat toilet paper?! Us lot, the average people, didn't have toilet paper right up until the 1920s. Perforated toilet paper on a roll wasn't invented until the 1890s and it was nothing like the soft, aloe vera infused, absorbent tissue we prefer today the first types of toilet paper had splinters in them. Imagine that! So what did we do before toilet paper? Well that depended on where you lived. We thought we'd find that our ancestors used leaves and moss and some of them did but others used materials we simply did not expect. Corncobs and maize husks and shells were among these. Ancient Greeks used stones. Ancient Romans went for a piece of sponge. (In their public toilets see Weird History 1 they used a piece of sponge attached to a stick after use the sponge was put into a bucket of salted water ready for the next person YUK!). In later times, thanks to the invention of the printing press (1500ish) and newspapers (from 1600s but loads after about 1820) we used old newspapers and magazines. At least one magazine the Farmer's Almanac (published in the USA) had a hole in its centre so you could attach it to a hook near your loo.

I often *** my dogs when I take them out for a walk. "Just realized I have to poop. This spot smells good. Done. Why are you picking it up you sick freak? Let's keep walking!"

Imagine having that kind of freedom.

On the other hand, I often say a little prayer of thanks for being a guy. Imagine having to sit down everytime you pee. Man, that would suck in a very big way.

Hopefully, for their sake, none of the females on this board sees this thread  8-)

As Seinfeld said:  Imagine how that would look to aliens.  They must think that dogs are the higher life-forms.  Why else would we pick up after them

I too go with the "man-roll" method.  I have my own roll hidden in my main bathroom and in the kids' bathroom.  Since you northerners are gonna be bored pretty soon here I have a simple lil prank for you.  Next time you are at a friend's house, take the TP off the roll and reverse the way the paper comes off the roll.  For instance, most people have the tag end coming over the top.  Take it off and turn it around so the tag end has to be pulled up from the bottom.  For some reason this drives people nuts.  (you can also fill the roll with marbles or a buncha pennies for extra madness)  ;D
