No wonder they believe their heinies are clean. Plus why are they advertising toilet paper now? Doesn’t that seem like a bit of a knife in the gut?

Yeah, like bears actually use toilet paper.

Everyone knows they use rabbits to wipe their ass.

Limit one per household. You’re gonna have to rinse that thing off pretty good before re-use.

That’s gotta be what’s happening. I haven’t been able to find rabbits at my local supermarket for weeks.

I switched to stoats. Their fur is nearly as soft, and they’re still in stock (and cheap!)

I am outraged at the ads I am seeing on FB for the price gougers selling TP. I report every one of them damn ads. Fuck Zuckerberg

Damn, now there’ll be a run on the Mariano’s in Westchester for stoats tomorrow. 😃

Might try a raccoon, but according to [this](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb//showthread.php?t=478377), they might be considered a luxury item. AND, perhaps, right up there with the bears.

No TP shortage at my house. Sure, I’m running out of $20 bills, but I got lots of hundreds.

I’m quite happy to not see video adverts. Am I culturally deprived? Or depraved? But I digress. A bear deposited a fat juicy steaming pile on my front porch steps but didn’t leave a rabbit. Damn inconsiderate. Hey old dopers, recall the sad days of pay toilets? We need a coin-op door for the porch so we can collect from the next bear.

I’m going big. A Bidet Llama. They spit. So relaxing and cleaner.

If Amazon would just deliver mine, I’ll be all set.

Finally, the Question of The Ages has been answered. But the Pope’s hat is still pretty funny.

Teddy The Dog got one today. Managed to eat the top half before I could get it away from him. Looking forward to cleaning up puked bunny head in the morning.

Dogs are nasty!
