My Japanese Moment....

So I was out of toilet paper and got some today at the store. I just put it in the bathroom and didn't bother opening it up.

Later tonight I use the toilet. I open up the toilet paper and see that I've bought paper towels on accident. I guess I wasn't looking closely when I bought them.

And suddenly it flashes into my mind: When my Japanese friends come over, I'll just tell them that it's American size toilet paper.

...and I had a little laugh.

 

After that, tell them it's common to recycle the paper(as in: put in back in the box) or give it to friends as a token of respect.

 

hrough

never ever flush paper towels throug japanese toilet sinks. may be you japanese friends will tell you:lol:

 

That's pretty much any toilet.

 

Maybe I'm lucky. I've been doing it for years, and never once backed one up (Asian & North American regions).

On the flip side, I have backed them up with massive logs out of my ass many times.

 

oh gp you never end to amaze me with your stories. lol

 

That's probably a bad idea.

a friend of mine, when he was young (like 3 or 4), did that a few times.

Instead of using toilet paper, he used used paper towels. After a few days of this, it backed up his families septic tank, and they had sewage coming into their garden. Very messy and very expensive to fix (a backhoe had to be called in to get the thing replaced)

 

Lol! A true Lumberjack!

 

What can I say. I offer the truth, with a twist. :rambo:

 

If you want to see a large one you should check out the stalls in a high school at the end of the day. I helped my uncle with his cleaning job a few times and I swear that some of the "messes" left behind could not be of human origin. The worst part is the big ones have to be broken up with a stick.

What's even worse is that he uses the same stick to take scuff marks off the floor(puts a tennis ball on one end) and I touched the stick many a time before he told about its other purpose.

"I bleach it every time" he would say. I don't care how good its been cleaned I'm never touching the turd stick again.

 

LOL! I have a friend who did the best thing ever at the gas station he worked at.

He had to clean the bathrooms and one day he took a similair stick and smeared....stuff allover the place, allover the light switch and then turned the lights off and quit afterwards....hehehehe.

 

I was in Toronto last year with my girlfriend and we stopped into a local restaurant. At the conclusion of our meal I went to relieve myself. When I entered the bathroom I noticed that someone had thrown some paper towels into the toilet... Not one to leave hot piss staring me in the eye, I flushed.

The toilet immediately overflowed and I narrowly escaped with dry shoes. I grabbed my girlfriend and bolted for the door as the water slowly seeped under the door and into the dining area.. Damn that was a fun trip.

Anyway moral of the story is:

Only flush towels in public places that you can run out of in an all fired hurry.
