Taboo?

Yesterday I was sitting in a public toilet. Having used the toilet I reached over and realised there was no toilet roll.

Obviously, I was stuck. The options aren't great, are they? Pull trousers up and walk into another loo - that's pretty nasty.

Call out lamely for someone to come and supply you with toilet roll?

I mean honestly, no holds barred now, what do people do in these situations?!

Drip dry.

yes, drip dry. If it's the other, then always check first or at least make sure you are always carrying tissues (which will block the toilet, but hey, it's not your toilet)

If you haven't followed either instruction, then I suppose the only thing left is to do what you have to do and never tell anyone. ever.

would you like a packet of tissues for such occassions? the packets i bought the other day [because i am ill, not because of these situations] have characters from the movie 'cars' on them.

Carry a small packet of tissues, then kindly leave the rest of the packet for the next poor visitor...

When caught without tissue you could drip dry, or I suppose you could use one of your socks.

Ah, how nice Sarah is. I hope I share a loo with her sometime.

I am in the drip dry camp, as I never have tissues. I have used a clean "butt gasket" (seat protector) as a wipe, but it is kind of slippery.

I always have a tissue in my pocket!

I have learned to check first, most of the time, but if that fails, it's the ass gaskets or a tissue or letting the cool breeze do its thing.

Aha! I see it is a dilemma for everyone then. Thanks for all the comments.

Shortly after I wrote that blog it happened to me IN MY OWN HOME. Yes, I am thick and didn't check for toilet roll again. Still tho, my housemates read my blog, who is doing this to me!!

How come you all KNOW it was a drip-sit?

These probs only trouble men when dripping ain't an option and guess what, we use our underpants, obv.

What, I hear you ask, do we DO with said underpants afterwards???

Easy.

We eat 'em.
