Apparently it is difficult to sell product that has been excessively squeezed. I don’t think Canada has Sam’s Clubs. No doubt they offer great value. But that is still an unfortunate name despite its authenticity. ---

Name still makes me chuckle. Did you “make your mark”? _Sure did. Guess which celebrity it looks like?_ ---

This is an area in which male genitalia may have an advantage over female. I can’t speak for all males, but we generally don’t use TP after peeing. We simply shake it vigorously and let the droplets land as they will. Sometimes a drop or two lands on your face, or on the face of the guy one urinal over, but that’s the price we pay for convenience. ---

Shoot. That’s ~~not funny at all~~ almost even funnier. “I’m not just a _client_ of… the club. I am also a _member_. Here’s my mark. I made that.” (Wondering if Tibby has choreoathetosis. Perhaps just a vigorous Harry Belafonte fan?) ---
