I think Americans are spoiled by the very high quality of toilet paper available for sale here. Not that many countries sell toilet paper anything like what we have here (maybe Japan and South Korea are the exceptions).

I always figured the London game was just a lot of roll playing

How many British toilets will our plush toilet paper clog?
To: RummyChick
I haven't been there, Britain, for three years, but the last time I was there the toilet paper was quite adequate for the task at hand. (Get it?....task at hand? I'm here all day folks.)
But I'm not a pro football player. We might not want to go there.

That’s thoughtful of them to put a drinking fountain in the room.

And then there is that commercial with the English gal trying to get us to use special “wipes.”

Most of the world is astonished that we use fresh water to flush the toilet.

Charmin for me. - I like the big rolls of original Charmin. Not the stuff that’s more like cloth than toilet paper.
- Grew up on an outdoor toilet and the Sears & Roebuck catalog. (The Charmin doesn’t itch; most others are treated
with some chemical or something that I’m allergic to I reckon.) The stuff at school was VERY primitive TP.

My grandparents had a big old elegant house that had a PINK bathroom.
It had PINK tile and a PINK toilet, bathtub and sink.
And my grandmother used to exclusively buy Charmin toilet paper in PINK.
Have not seen it for years. I heard lots of women started showing up at their doctor’s thinking they had got the herpes when in fact they were having an allergic reaction to their colored toilet paper.

I remember the French “hole in the floor toilet” . I am a woman and had to undress to make sure I was over it just to pee. Wouldn’t you know it there was a man on the roof peeking at me.
I think I screamed something that they had not heard a Texan say since WW2.

Guess they didn’t want to be caught asking, “Can you spare a square?”

I think I screamed something that they had not heard a Texan say since WW2.If you had told anyone over there about it, you would have gotten that stupid shrug that they do. I had a Depardieu look alike on the Metro show me how he used to fight in the old days. Fists stopping inches from my nose. I looked him straight in the eye and he ambled away. A french dude translated that he had actually been a boxer and was probably trying to scare an American tourist.
All in all it was a beautiful city. Oh, I almost forgot, I saw a salami hit his wife in a McDonalds. He slapped her with a hand he brought from behind his head. No reaction whatever in the place. This was 96.
