Japanese Toilet Paper

Novelty toilet paper isn’t new but some of these ones I saw at Tokyu Hands today aroused my curiousity. Besides the standard type of general quiz/maze types, there’s the “How to ask where the washroom is in English” one, the “How to make a toilet out of a box in case of Earthquake” one and the “Awareness of the destruction of the rain forests” one (see below)

I was quite interested in the “Fish-Related Kanji Quiz” one myself. But generally these are only useful if you suffer from constipation and spend a long time in the can, which I don’t. But even when I do spend a longer than average time I can bring my laptop in with me and update my blog like I’m doing now (multitasking). That’s why they invented wireless. ;-)

… There is something mildly disturbing about the idea of you blogging with your pants around your ankles. Just sayin’.

You mean you posted this TP entry while on the can? :)

I saw such paper this other day at an izakaya, and I thought it wasn’t the right place for it since people might stay longer to read while there’s only one toilet. Otherwise I thought the idea wasn’t bad.

Number 5 blue: “It is a diarrhea feeling.” When would one use that?

Doctor: “What kind of feeling did you say you have in your jockey shorts?”

Patient: “It is a diarrhea feeling.”

Doctor: “Sniff, sniff. I see what you mean.”
