Blue Toilet Paper

I walked into my bathroom this morning and as I was getting ready for class, I began to feel a little disoriented.  I couldn’t quite figure out why, until I was using the toilet.  As I reached for toilet paper, there it was, staring back at me.  Baby blue toilet paper.  I was greatly disturbed.  Why, may I ask, does such a thing exist?  Is colored toilet paper really necessary?  I honestly don’t think it is…

I asked everyone about it to figure out who in my family would purchase adorably colored toilet paper, and no one came forward.  Either they honestly didn’t know it was colored when they bought it (which would be very sneaky on the TP Company’s part), or they bought it and were too embarrassed to admit it.

Now every bathroom I walk into in this house (all two of them) has the toilet paper.  It’s really freaking me out.

So, because I take my weblog so seriously, I did further research into the matter, and what I found scares me even more than the blue TP.  There are places where you can place custom orders for your TP to say “World’s Greatest….” and have pictures of whatever you fancy to be printed on the TP.  Why?!  Why on earth would I want “Wet Willie’s Bait & Tackle Shop” (which was one of their fine examples) to wipe my ass?

 

 

I guess I could see the appeal for a small town business to have “Merry Christmas!”…(if I worked in an insurance agency with fake wood paneling and potpourri…in the late 80’s while sporting a horrible haircut) 

I even saw some camouflage toilet paper.  Oh yes.  How appealing.

You know what?  I change my mind.  I really am okay with having blue toilet paper.  I am actually thankful for it because it just means that - A) I have toilet paper, and (B) It doesn’t have Camouflage, Hillary Clinton, or really awful toilet jokes on it.
