    Does any one remember the toy and show, “care bears?” We should have toys and a cartoon called the Charmin bears. When the bears are defeating evil, they will yell, “Charmin bear shit,” and then bend over to perform a perfectly synced team goatse followed by a super high pressure stream of diarrhea right into the evil doer which knocks the bad guy off his feet.

      I truly believe the world needs more of this kind of flagrant lack of regard for decency, good taste, and morals when it concerns children.

      It is the only reasonable counter to “won’t somebody please think of the children?”

      Like. Sure. This is what we think.

      Just make the world so utterly polluted with shit that will ruin a happy childhood that parents will have mo choice but to actually be parents and everyone else can just go on with their fucking lives.

        Guy, we could legalize child soldiers tomorrow and as long as they promised to keep the kids from home 8 hours a day people would throw their kids at them.

    I don’t know. If I was a bear and I just discovered toilet paper was a thing. I think I’d be pretty stoked about it.

    Unpopular opinion: I prefer Scott. Doesn’t clog toilets easily, doesn’t leave a bunch of crud after wiping (I’ve heard it called clitter but that is gender and region specific. Conveys the idea though) Also is cheaper and lasts longer. I’m sorry so many buttholes feel the need for this stuff

    One time, I was in New York-- it was around Christmas, may have even been new year’s eve. Anyway, me my wife and our friend were walking around and after awhile, we all needed a bathroom. What do we see? A “Charmin” sponsored bathroom um, ‘store’. There was a line that started on the street to get up one story where the bathrooms were, but it was moving along pretty steady. When we got upstairs it was a big square room, with bathroom doors lining 3 sides-- maybe 15 in all. Each door had an led number above it. There was some kind of carnival music playing, and “Charmin” employees milling about who would cheer and clap every time someone exited a bathroom. It was very weird.

    When charmin killed the bear they killed their revenue.

    That bear was an icon, a symbol of soft toilet paper and a clean asshole. No ripped paper, no surprise on your hand, just a soft and strong piece of TP.

      When did they do that? Maybe it’s confabulation, but I could swear I’ve seen commercials on streaming in the last year.

      I’ve had a bidet since right before COVID (coincidentally and conveniently,) so maybe I’m just confused. It was surprising when I found out there was a toilet paper shortage in the US, then finally seeing the empty shelves, but checked the cabinet and after seeing a few rolls realized we were fine for a while. At least a dozen friends installed them soon after based on our feedback, and I know of at least three dozen through them. All bidet, e’ry bidet!

    I don’t mind the bear characters, but I hate these commercials because they are a constant reminder that a statistically significant number of people are not fucking wiping their assholes properly and are perpetually traveling down skid row.

    The commercials make me very uncomfortable. But I think about them from time to time, so I guess Charmin wins.
