I just learned this...it's difficult to be grateful for something, when you didn't even know how grateful you should be for it...or that tp with splinters existed.

Today I am grateful for splinter free toilet paper.

The first splinter-free toilet paper was invented in 1930 by the Northern Tissue Company.

Before 1930, toilet paper manufacturing techniques often left splinters in the paper.

In 1930, Northern Tissue began advertising their toilet paper as "splinter-free".

I don't understand how people today still don't have a bidet. Toilet paper today is for drying not smearing crap.

What about the smeary poo? I figured bidets are only good for squirts or the rock hard poo.

Unless your bidet has fire hydrant pressure, I'm not buying what your selling

This. Someday civilization will awaken to the genius of the bidet.

I was curious to see what the advertising for this looked like. Earliest ad I found for Northern Tissue making the claim:



Wonder if booty splinters were a real problem or if this was clever marketing by Northern Tissue.

The Soviets got their first toilet paper factory in 1969. People were so used to using newspaper from all of the propaganda papers that they didn't see a need to spend money on toilet paper. The Soviets had to launch a whole propaganda and marketing campaign to get people to understand the benefits.

It'll damn sure suffice to prep your bottom for a clean pegging if that's your goal.

He said he's not buying and you thought "gaying up" the bidet would sell him?

Water pressure is gay? Ok. I did have a girlfriend who use the bathtub water to stimulate her bean. Bet she loved the invention of hand held shower heads. What are we talking about?

Humans did just fine for hundreds of thousands of years.

Just in the last hundred years did we adopt practices like bathing regularly, using toilet paper, changing clothes daily.

I think if one were to time travel back to the 1600s, the first thing you'd be floored by is the smell. If you've ever wandered too close to a homeless dude,, just imagine that kind of smell being everywhere all the time.

Thank you, Dr. Anthropology.

Very chronocist to judge others by their life spans from their time period.

You would do better to acknowledge your privilege.

Flushable wipes for the win. If TP was going to give me splinters why not just dump and use grass to wipe like at the deer lease as a kid?

Waste Water plant workers, and plumbers that handle the sanitary sewer lines that feed to the waste water plants, will tell you that "flushable" wipes don't really break down.

Neither does the splinter in my butt! I do try to be mindful of that fact about the lack of breakdown and really limit their use.

I don't believe any of this splinter-in-the-TP BS ....

Has anyone asked Tarp if this was actually a problem?
