Any way is fine as long I have to clean my precious "rabinho"!

That was well before they started using glossy printing.

If you're short on cash, recycle a phone book.

That's when you switch to the phone book. It's not like it's good for anything else these days.

I once hauled a giant roll of TP from Oregon to Quebec. It barely fit in the back of a fifty-three foot trailer. It was then made into a bunch of standard sized rolls.
Since it was loaded on it's end, it didn't matter if it was over or under.

Stranded.
Stranded on the toilet bowl.
What do you do when you're stranded
and you can't reach a roll...

Forget the old plan
You must wipe with your hand
Just to proooove...

You're a man!

Congratulations!
You're our first party pooper.
Would you like a few sheets with that?

You'd make a good straight man for Triumph, the insult comic dog.

Weighing in on this debate, I'll go with present.

I'm pretty content so long as toilet paper is present in the bathroom. After my whole Appalachian experience, I'd say dry is important as well, if nothing else in your backpack stays dry, make sure the TP does.

That's also true. Sometimes I manage to get it right. Obviously this wasn't one of those times.

Also, sometimes, certain words are necessary because ones choice of words also conveys the level of emotion or feeling behind what is being communicated - and in that capacity some words just fall short while others do not.

I can understand your feeling on that. On the other hand Neal made the rules for a reason, and whatever his reasons may be it's not our place to question them. The rule is simple - don't use certain words. Oh, and your first point: Kids do read these forums.

And it could be argued that certain words are not necessary to convey feeling, they are only needed by minds too limited to be creative without being vulgar. Before you think I'm talking down to anybody, I also have the same problem in my own life. It's only in my writing that I manage to contain myself.

That said, the bottom line is: Neal's house, Neal's rules. Follow them or don't; your choice.

That's the way it is in some cultures, use your hand and water, no paper allowed

Actually studies have shown that cuss words do have a medical release effect over plain words. Drop a bucket on your toe, say dern, you'll have more pain than if you let go with some good cussing.

I'm with Duci as far as my personal life, I hold no value towards word except how they're used............but yes, I do get the rules, if I didn't I would call you more names than I do.
