When was the last time you purchased a roll of toilet tissue in any colour other than white?
Toilet paper was once available in a rainbow of colours such as pink...
Green...
Lavender, blue, and yellow.
You could choose a colour of toilet paper to match or complement the colour of your bathroom.
Coloured toilet paper was popular in the U.S.A. and Canada until the 1980s when it fell out of favour because of health and environmental concerns.
Coloured toilet paper is back.
The scented three-ply toilet tissue by Renova will come in Black, Fuchsia, Cyan, Red, Yellow, Orange, and Apple Green.
And it has built-in moisturizing lotion.
They say their product is eco-friendly and dermatologically tested.
Will you wipe your butt with it?

i remember all the colors of the 60s & 70s.
ReplyDeleteoh wait, that wasn't the paper.
Having a flashback, dear?
DeleteOr a hot flash?
mustn't wipe back to front!
DeleteI'll use your sleeve, regardless, Norma.
DeleteMaybe we shouldn't wipe at all.
DeleteHUGGY JON: Please vacate the premises.

They used to sell "Woody Wipe" toilet paper in Ann Arbor in the 1970s.
ReplyDeleteNow, it is something different...
LX: Does your “friend” use “Woody Wipes?”
DeleteIt says that they are also good for removing "lent balls"... does that mean that they wee originaly borrowed?
DeletePRINNY: Lent balls?
DeleteIs that something I have to give up on Ash Wednesday?
The red toilet paper is enough to make me queasy.
ReplyDeleteThey stopped making the colored toilet paper in the early 1970s becausethe dyes polluted the eco system, and they gave women UTI's.
So I'll stay with white. And remember, check your poo paper for anything abnormal and get a COLONOSCOPY people. Colon Cancer is the most easily prevented disease, but you have to get your poop pie scoped out!
COOKIE: “Poop pie?”
DeleteIs that cousin to cake farting?
Well, I was hoping, preferably for something that would compliment the Virgin Cherry Pink.
ReplyDeleteMISTRESS MADDIE: When decorators speak of adding a “pop of colour,” your popped cherry is exactly what they have in mind.
DeleteMaddie's cherry was on sale in Ann Arbor in the 1970s. Jx
DeleteI'll have you both know, not only is this Renova working on a color for me, but the ass wipes will be gin scented! but Benjamin Moore Paints is coming out with Maddie's Sweet Cherry Pink!
DeleteJON: Maddie’s cherry for sale?
DeleteI heard she was GIVING it away!
If I was confronted with black toilet paper, I would find another place to do my business. Possibly my host's bed.
ReplyDeletePEENEE: A typical host-parasite relationship.
DeleteDefinitely! I like it!
ReplyDeleteNot the black and the purple, but all the other colours, especially the organge. They say that since they introduced the colour series in 2005 there are no complaints - and the built-in moisturizer is simply charming!
The fifties' green bathroom above is well known to me. My flat has a grey one from the seventies.
MAGO: After all the time your butt spent in the sun recently, you could use a good moisturizer.
DeleteDO they glow in the dark?
ReplyDeleteHUGGY JON: I don’t know if they glow in the dark.
DeleteDo you do "your business" in the dark?
Funny, I didn't even notice that they stopped making the colored tp till you pointed it out. My mother used the ones that had floral prints on them.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'll stick with the Sears & Roebuck catalogue...
I guess Goethe writes somewhere that he went to an outhouse in the dark while travelling to Italy; the paper felt funny, so he took it with him out to the light, only to discover that they used a cut up incunabulum, a pre-1500 printed book.
DeleteShit, I can't find it yet!
Have you tried using a "sniffer dog" Mr Mags?
DeleteWally, please keep the men's underwear pages for me.

DeleteUn incunable!!! Juste Ciel.
DeleteI hope it wasn't Gutenberg's Bible.
*faints*
BITCHES: I love that Goethe was worked into this post on toilet paper.
DeleteI prefer to continue using old newspaper and collected tissue wraps from boxed apples... Have you tried wiping your arse with a kindle?
ReplyDeleteSandpaper solves the problem, dear Princess.
DeleteThanks for the tip Mr Mags...
DeleteI tried it and I've discovered that sandpaper provides a much smoother finish than a "Kindle"
or just drag your arse along the ground like a dog with worms.
DeleteMistress MJ just coughed up a lung from Mitzi’s comment.
DeleteColoured bog roll has never been away in the UK but only in delicate pastel shades. I read somewhere that white toilet paper can cause irritation due to the bleach they use to whiten it.
ReplyDeleteThe question you have to ask yourself is what colour goes best with brown? I think a nice fresh yellow.
MITZI: I once moved into an apartment with a brown & yellow bathroom.
DeleteCan you imagine?
Most definitely not. I prefer a bidet with attendants to gently blow on my butt until dry.
ReplyDeleteAYEM8Y: One more thing I have to add to your Relaxation Unit.
DeleteGenerally I use coffee filters or fabric softener sheets.
ReplyDeleteTHOM: You smell Downy fresh.
DeleteI remember once using the bathroom at a friend's house, a REALLY HOT GUY, and there was no toilet paper left. I saw a box of Bounce on the dryer so I took two sheets and... you know.
DeleteUnfortunately, that's the only bouncing that occured.
HUGGY JON: Never leave home without some of these.
DeleteYou’ll thank me later.
