Newspaper
.
Specifically, newspaper in the toilet in place of proper toilet paper. Common,common,common and one of my pet hates.

In my student days I knew a fair number of people who practiced this abomination including one guy who would steal a load of extra copies of the student newspaper for his weekly supply.

"If you're going to steal something" I told him "Why don't you steal bog paper from the loos?"

"I like something to read when I'm on the crapper" was his reply.

Pleb.

Soft toilet paper is one of the necessities of life. I'd happily go without food rather than do without decent loo roll. All a man needs in life to be happy can be summarised in the line"

"Loose shoes, tight pussy and a warm place to shit...."


And while we're on about loo roll I'll share my advertising slogan for Andrex with you. Why they don't use it instead of those fucking puppies is one of life's mysteries.

"ANDREX. Gets the shit off your arse and your fingers don't go through it!"

It'll be a winner I tell you.

Cheers

have you been to India?
I guess you can get TP there if you want it, unless when in Rome . . . in favour of the traditional way. When you've shat your ring inside out and back again, wiping with bogroll can be agony. No need for food in this case, it just assaults the other end.

Anyway, prob TMI. Sorry-ish.

You can tell as soon as someone opens the front door
if they use newspaper in the khazi. It gives off a faint but distinctive smell.

I've had jobs involving home visits, many in unsalubrious areas, and I KNOW.

Good slogan - when Viz came up with it circa 1988.

And
I freely admit that that's where I got it from.

But me, unlike Viz, has been trotting it out and keeping it alive ever since.

That's 20 years I've been using that line. Doesn't time fly?
