America Goes Down the Toilet but Digs It

There was amusement earlier to see mention of that Italian squatter toilet earlier was regarded as a 'toilet obsession' but that probably will have to escalate somewhat to catch up with the cat videos. 

Even the word 'toilet' gets Americans quivering ... you can't say THAT word.

To grok the full measure of the toilet headworms rampaging in America, check out commercials for toilet paper:

It gives you a better wipe 

(no, I am not making that up). 


No-one asks ... better than what, honey?

Better than a pine cone?

Better than something you thought was just some grass but is really poison ivy?


Maybe it reminds of the General Electric commercials which stated their bulbs give better light.

(Ed:  do you sit around studying poo commercials?)

No more than you sit around studying Massengill products for feminine hygiene, cabron.  And wtf was that doing on television anyway:  here's a product which will kill all the healthful vaginal bacteria and leave the money pot smelling like strawberries.  Oh, oh, how perfectly, um, suburban.  What says welcome to a yeast infection more than killing all the defensive bacteria to fight it, huh.

It's antispecticism!  Yah, that's yer word for it.  It's why no-one can say terlet, your kitchen sink must be as sterile as an operating theater, and the vagina must smell like strawberries.


America is just like your own kid.  Once you get past teaching the little fucker about the toilet, then s/he can get on to learning some important stuff. 

Note: many of them won't make it and if any doubt on that, witness South Carolina where they had a toilet protest regarding the latest poo priority laws they so cleverly invented recently.  In the zoo, monkeys fling poo at you but the Carolinas are where you can fling it at each other.


(Ed:  toilet behavior is highly important for a kid's development!)

Yah, yah, but, as you already know, it will go fine if you don't make a big deal out of it ... which is precisely the opposite of what the Carolinas are doing.


When we first got here, we had to learn what toilet words Americans will accept and right away we knew 'toilet' wasn't one of them because they immediately stiffen on hearing that.  They don't much like 'john' either as that was my ol' Dad's second suggestion.  We needed to work our way down the  list to discover, ah, that one is ok.  Use it.

It gives you a better wipe (larfs).
