Send In The Clones.

I need some clones, please. Even with the help of Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar, I'm struggling to keep up.

Been going on a tour that is the irony of ironies and I keep noticing a photo of myself all over the internet.  In the meantime, while I go searching for some clone-type help, I shall leave you with a short posting.
Yes that bummer, butt oh so important question I've posed before.  When I say "posed" as in asked the question.  The toilet paper this way?  
Or this way?
Or oops!  I really need some clones right about now!

While you're contemplating such important questions.  I shall leave you with the theme music to "Jeopardy!"    See ya and this posting has reached the bottom, so to speak.....

    You're in luck - I have a clone machine!
    Glad you enjoyed seeing your mug everywhere (as much as you could, of course) and understand that a lot of friendship and honor went into our posts.

      Hi Alex,

      Yes, that was a subtle cry for help from you. I need to have you clone your clone machine.

      Seeing my mug all over the place was a nice, thoughtful gesture. And yes, beyond the irony, was the friendship we all share. That is an honour and thank you, kind sir.

    Yes, he have the clone machine. The only one that works at this time. Dragon had one but it blew up because of Mark Koopman's fault, hahahha. If you were to wait for it to be repaired, your legs would go numbed waiting in that toilet. Don't recommend it. :)

      Hi Al,

      I would anxiously wait for the repair of your clone machine. Numb legs might well be worth it. I think Mark Koopman should take the blame for a number of things lately :)

      Thank you, Al.

    Do you remember back in the 60's when toilet paper was decorated? If you unrolled it to the back, you couldn't see the pretty checks or birdies. So it HAD to be rolled OVER the top and outward. That's how I know the CORRECT way. So there.

    I'm outta here. Got the runs. I mean, I've gotta run.

    Have you been on a . . . a . . . blog hop, LOL? And re the crucial TP issue, all decent, right-minded people know that the proper way is for the paper to come over the top and down the front of the roll. Only barbarians and heathens put it the other way.

    Well isn't that the age old question! Over the top I'd say or what about those places that insist on folding the ends into a triangle. Still either way is better than that scratchy stuff of times gone by! I'll pop and check the local small ads for any second hand clone machines for you!

      Hi Suzanne,

      A question that goes back even before those days when British toilet paper seemed more like waxed paper. Folding the ends into a triangle. I'm going to give those napkins on the tables at the restaurant a closer inspection. If you see any second hand or third hand clone machines, I would be eternally grateful to you.

    Toilet paper need to come OVER the roll, and hang down in front. Not that there's any chance of it being done the wrong way around here...no one else seems to understand the technology behind putting a new roll on...

    A friend of mine said that she thought people who put toilet rolls a certain way (I can't remember which way now) were possessed or had no souls or something. She was kidding but she did think those people were weird. I told her that I never really pay attention to which way the toilet roll goes, meaning that it sometimes goes this way, and sometimes goes that.

      I sat on one of those things that spray upwards. What the hell! I bet the Romans did some roaming. I've studied up on toilets and I noted, for instance, that toilets in Britain are higher off the ground than the average one in North America. However, the North American version has a wider bowel, um bowl.

    Even people that don't care about which way it hangs have something to say about people that do care. Dirty fingers (esp. little people) leave marks on walls, if the paper hangs over the roll there is no need for those dirty little fingers to be reaching under the roll to find the end of it... of course you could just teach little people to clean the walls, which all comes in good time, but for now I just prefer to hang the paper over. I offer a paper turning service for free at other peoples houses, they don't even have to ask. The big question really is are you a folder or scruncher?

      You hang it over the top. Which means, if you visit somebody's house and it aint that way, you are going to re-roll it for them. Very kind of you. I'm a folding scruncher.

      Toilet paper up and over. Young folks and cats and dogs, think toilet paper is a really fun toy.

      We could discuss recycled butt wipe ass well. Or mention that we saw on the toilet rolls we purchased that the words stated, "New and Improved!" I certainly hope it's new!
