Have you in your life ever picked up a piece of toilet paper off a floor in a public bathroom? |
|
We have a Republican Senator who swears he did.
Something doesn't seem quite right.

35. Larry was deeply impressed |
|
by the famous commercial with Iron Eyes Cody. Ever since watching it, the sight of toilet paper left thoughtlessly on the floor has brought a tear to his eye. Clearly, this police officer had littered. The good senator had tried to make eye contact, to encourage the cop to pick it up. Didn't work. So he tapped his foot, then pointed to it. The cop panicked, and believed that the senator was about to invoke a citizen's arrest. That is obviously the true story here.

Sheesh!
Larry Craig saw an "Inconvenient Truth" the night before. He was desperately worried about global warming and the deforestation of our planet. He saw that lonely toilet paper square, and he knew he could make a difference--if only a little one.
He planned to fold up the square, catch his flight, land and then locate and dash to the nearest recycling center, where his little square would be used to make teddy-bear wrapping paper.
The man wants to save trees and all you can do is tear him down!!!

toilet tissue off a Public Restroom Stall floor. But, Craig wasn't in the "stall in a men's room" to "drip dry" but if I was in that situation with a bowel movement...I think I'd just pull up my pants and get a paper towel and go back in and do what I needed to....
But, most females "check the stalls" before they go in to see if there's toilet tissue on the roll left (because we like to be prepared.)
I don't know what men do when they have to clean themselves and there's nothing available. :shrug:
Most men today don't even carry handkerchief's or tissues in their pocket like my Dad and Grandad did...maybe...because they knew there were always "emergencies." Craig is of an age that should be carrying a handkerchief or tissue... He's not a kid who just "takes a dump" and lets his undies take care of it for him.

Edited on Thu Aug-30-07 05:39 PM by The Backlash Cometh
now about allowing a young male in any public bathroom. Not until he learns all the signals so he doesn't do anything inadvertently. And the one thing that never occurred to me is that any gay man would be inconsiderate enough to masterbate over an open urinal, in plain view.
So, taking all that into account, now you ask, can I visualize a man picking up toilet paper from the floor of a public bathroom? Once my mind grasps the reality of what's actually going on in there, yes, sir. Unfortunately, I can.
