Bog roll

    I bought a 12 pack of kitten soft today in the supermarket today. There was an attractive lady behind me, and an attractive lady at the checkout till. I suddenly became very self concious when I saw the gigantic bundle of loo paper trundling down the conveyor belt, It seemed out of place with the rest of my groceries. They seemed a bit distracted too.Has anyone else felt a pang of embarrassment buying loo roll?

    try being a female buying a single carrot in a supermarket

    Just rob the blue roll from a petrol station forecourt.

    At €0 / sqM you can't get cheaper and it's ultra absorbent.

    Stings the ring a bit at first but it will soon callous up nicely like leather and then you're set.

    There was some study done a few years ago that revealed women with big boobs buy small melons. Thankfully the important things are being researched. :pac:

    No, because everybody go 2's.


    Imagine of it was a box of tampax going down the conveyor though, those bitches would have wet themselves thinking - 'nawh.. he went out and bought her some tampax.. Isn't he so sweet? nawhhh. I want him inside me'.


    Or something like that.

    That's like wiping your arse with a blade!

    Aw man, up to that moment those women thought you didn't need to wipe and were going to have lots of sex with you for that reason, but you blew it by revealing your weakness.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    OP it was Kitten Soft, so if anything, you're in. Buying Kitten Soft, instead of own brand arse sandpaper, looks sensitive.

    Too right. Getting someone else to do that would be a Cardinal sin.

    I share a house with 5 others so once a month we all take a turn to go and buy a months supply of jacks paper for the house. We live a 4 minute walk from the pound shop so the last time it was my turn I had £25 so bought £25 packs with 4 rolls each. They put them into two massive clear bags so I had to walk home with two huge clear bags of jacks paper.

    I held my head high and proud.

    I remember reading a study that stated 'Penalty kick takers in a (soccer)World Cup Final feel more pressure than Penalty kick takers playing in a regular Sunday game'.

    How do these things get research money?

    I would have said:

    Me: 'Well, this is awkward'

    Her: 'Why do you say that handsome'?

    Me: 'Don't you feel uncomfortable touching those knowing that I'm going to be wiping my arse with them in the not too distant future'?

    I was so disappointed when I found out its not actually made of kittens.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,331 ✭✭✭RichieC


    Used to. when I was ten.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,573 ✭✭✭pragmatic1


    I know what you mean OP. Its like whoever is around then associates you with poo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 955 ✭✭✭Scruffles


    forgive the pun,but coud not give a sht about being seen with toilet roll.
    it is only paper and there is nothing moraly wrong with having a sht-better out than in as anyone whose ever had constipation knows.:eek:
    - it is only recycled food,perhaps if scientists can invent some sort of supplement people/animals can take to add scent to faeces so it comes out smelling of anything-perfume,flowers,aftershave,deodorant,coffee,freshly baked bread,freshly cut grass etc-anything that humans tend to love the smell of.

    Could have been worse OP, could have been buying some cucumbers, condoms, and vasaline.

    I thought the same thing, but all you'd get is the assumption people might think they want you.

    However if you act on it they will brand you as a cheating scumbag and you'll get nowhere, it will go from a mildly pleasant encounter to your being demonized.:(:(:(

    Or cucumbers, cling-film and elastic bands.

    If on a budget

    You should have just said it was for your kitten. Chicks dig kittens.
