Another whacko liberal! If he wants to have no impact, he should dig a hole and jump in.

My user name says it all!

There are many places all over the world that don’t use toilet paper.
When toilet paper is a luxury.
You have seen Communism.

“Ya, I loved it when we had no electricity for 8 days after a hurricane. Talk about a learning and growth experience.”

Hurricanes are probably what started my interest in being prepared, as a kid my mother had to keep the stuff we needed for those long black outs.

As an adult the 12 days I went without electricity after Alicia was no big deal for just one example.

Once a father has tried to teach his family about what to do during a preparedness situation it is always a good idea to test them with a three day total utility shutdown.

Teenagers and wives especially sometimes need to see the reality before they start really paying attention.

This is basicly a clinical mental illness.

When you meet a liberal, seriously think about whether you want to shake their hand or not. You know where it’s been.

“If he wants to have no impact, he should dig a hole and jump in.”

I was just thinking the same thing. If every screaming liberal who wanted to “help the environment” would simply commit suicide, then the rest of us could share the world’s resources more easily. It shouldn’t be hard to convince them to off themselves; just tell them it’s “for the children.”

“Another salon poser eschewing the trappings of civilization so he can feel how the Other Half lives.”

YeP Poser indeed.

Mr. Manhattan can choose TP or not.
Many folks that do not use TP do not have a choice in the matter.

This is a rehash of an even lamer article on the same couple; the key tie-in between the two is the non-use of toilet paper.

There must be a reason why this aspect of the whole thing is so evocative.

Coprophilia.

In Nigeria people would love to enjoy amenities like consistent power, clean water and a sanitary sewer system. Not just for the convience but because it means better health and economic stability.

They could teach Mr. Manhattan a lot about reality.

The liberal, as a liberal is defined, is about as ignorant and stupid about how toilet paper is made and destroyed in waste water treatment as anyone can be.

“though Isabella enjoys stomping the clothes in the bathtub. “

Odds are they use more water to hand wash than my water efficient washing machine uses.

Liberals.
