Texting too much to give (or take) a crap

Speaking of unintended consequences:
The rise of electronic communication may soon affect your bottom line in restrooms.

A paperless world means consumers are no longer filling their recycling bins with the high-quality newspaper and printer paper necessary to make toilet paper.

The shortage has paper companies scrambling to find new paper supplies, according to a study published in Chemical and Engineering News.

Toilet paper needs pulp with long, strong fibres to be soft. Each time paper is recycled, the fibres become shorter and weaker, creating a scratchier tissue.

Oh nose!

Personally, I am more worried about not having the water to flush in the future. I HATE composting toilets.

When I was at a boarding school, I was on the crapper, and a friend came in and hurled the only toilet paper out onto the deck (which was adjacent to the crapper). He wanted me to have to hobble out into public view, pants around my ankles, fetching the tissue.

He forgot only one thing.
























I was wearing his socks. :rsp

They had some nice composting toilets in Canada Last time I was camping. They weren't half bad certainly a lot better than the usual pit toilets I'm used to.

I am going to take the cheap shot and mock you for your grammar mistake.

You can return the favor later. :D

Never light a fag when you're sat on a pit toilet, and never ever drop the match into the pit below you.

Methane.

Nuff said?
