Saturday Photo Hunt- Soft Bottom

February 23rd, 2007 by Rose DesRochers · 53 Comments

Photo Hunt

This weeks theme is soft. I would just like to thank my son JD at Digital Frenzy, who suggested I take a photo of the following soft item.

Toilet Paper

Suddenly Mr. Whipple comes to mind saying “Please don’t squeeze the Charmin!” This isn’t Charmin toilet paper, but it is just as soft.

Have you noticed that toilet paper manufacturers have not only given you fewer sheets per roll, but the cost of toilet paper has gone up?

Would you look at that? Is this what I have become? I’m sitting here talking about toilet paper on the internet. It is all tnchick’s fault. “Laugh” Have a great weekend folks.

If you liked this post, why not buy me a coffee?

  • Barbara UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:09 pm

    I’m reading about toilet paper on the internet, soft toilet paper.

  • michelle UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:09 pm

  • Angelo CANADA Windows 2000 Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:15 pm

    It’s important that the TP is soft eh? Happy Photohunting Rose :)

  • Lisa Renee UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:16 pm

    That is good, I thought about that or a picture of some marshmallows but went with a picture of our puppy instead. Though I have to admit when I saw your title, I thought it might be a baby’s behind…

    :-)

  • tnchick UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:19 pm

    I didn’t want to post my cat because I use my pets, often… and really *almost* posted toilet paper, too!! LOL!! =)

  • Becci UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:22 pm

    lol..I blame TNchick too! But what a lovely idea for blogs huh? Your photo is a great take on the theme this week! My photo is up, please come and visit

  • Tasra Dawson UNITED STATES Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.9 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:45 pm

    Very original! Would never have thought of it, but it definitely qualifies this week.

  • Linda UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:48 pm

    That’s definitely one of the most original I’ve seen so far this week. And you’re right about the rising costs!

  • Marcia UNITED STATES Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 23, 2007 at 11:59 pm

    Oh, Rose, that is what I almost posted, but I keep forgetting what brand was the ’soft’ brand and buy a different brand all the time trying to find it, so I didn’t want to “fake” soft. . . glad you have the real stuff. Certainly made me smile.

  • srp UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 24, 2007 at 1:04 am

    This is the first toilet paper I’ve seen today! Really, you never know how much you appreciate the soft kind until you are forced to use something else.

  • JHS UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 1:24 am

    Oh, my . . .that’s hysterical and unlike Marcia, it never occurred to me! :roll:

  • eph2810 UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 1:30 am

    :lol: that is a great way to interpret this week’s theme of soft. I thought it was only me that thought that TP got very expensive…
    Have a wonderful weekend.

  • Larry CANADA Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.9 // Feb 24, 2007 at 1:40 am

    :lol: I have to buy the 3-ply — that’s how spoiled I am LOL - thanks for stopping by too. Have a pleasant and soft weekend!

  • Biker Betty UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 2:19 am

    I never thought of toilet paper, lol. Great idea of your son’s.

    Have a great weekend.

  • superkimbo MALAYSIA Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 3:12 am

    Nice! Very creative - I like to see a different take on the theme :)

  • Kai CANADA Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 24, 2007 at 4:19 am

    HA! That’s a great one - how clever!

  • viamarie PHILIPPINES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.9 // Feb 24, 2007 at 6:39 am

    Thanks for the visit.

  • Hootin' Anni UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 7:20 am

    LOL—that was the first thing that came to MY mind when I read it was ’soft’ this week!!

    Mine’s posted

  • ChupieandJsmama UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 7:55 am

    Perfect! Best picture I’ve seen yet. And you’re right. They are giving us less for more money.

  • Lisa UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 8:04 am

    Your son was very creative to come up with this idea. It is indeed something very important to be soft!:grin:

    I agree with you, even these “super rolls” seem to have fewer and fewer sheets. I’m always changing the roll.

    Have a wonderful Saturday.

  • Beckie UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 8:23 am

    :lol: That’s the best I’ve seen today. Dragonboy is very clever. I’m up too.

  • Dragonheart GERMANY Windows XP Opera 9.10 // Feb 24, 2007 at 8:32 am

    Fun interpretation of the theme! Being a cat, I don’t use toilet paper, but I understand it’s use and softness is very important to humans!

  • Rach PHILIPPINES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 8:53 am

    Great entry. That’s very true. I noticed how the tissue rolls seem to shrink because manufacturers has given us fewer sheets per roll.

  • roman UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.9 // Feb 24, 2007 at 9:08 am

    Now that’s a great entry for today’s theme.

    H/H
    Happy Hunting

  • Barbara H. UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 9:48 am

    LOL! I love the twist on the theme!

  • expatraveler CANADA Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.6 // Feb 24, 2007 at 10:19 am

    LOL - now that is too funny… But I guess so, that works. Thanks for visiting.

  • Coll CANADA Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 10:51 am

    Now.. this particular softness, I consider a “must have”. :razz:

  • MamaDuck UNITED STATES Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 12:46 pm

    ROTFL!!! We just bought the generic stuff and wow can you tell the difference ;). Have a great weekend and thanks for visiting us as well.

  • MamaDuck UNITED STATES Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 12:48 pm

    Hey, I was just working on an adaptation of Cutline myself, actually, as I posted that last comment I saw the Cutline thing on the bottom of your page. I presume you didn’t adapt it yourself tho, from the other link. I need my two sidebars tho and 800 pixels across, which requires quite a bit more adaptation than I have time for at the moment. Do you find your search engine traffic doing well with this theme?? I’ve heard things…. ;)

  • Carmen UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 3:31 pm

    Too funny. Soft indeed!

  • deb UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 3:53 pm

    Hah! Great interpretation! And YES tp is outrageously high these days….we may have to go back to using the funny paper ;~)

    Have a great weekend!

  • meeyauw UNITED STATES Mac OS X Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 24, 2007 at 4:21 pm

    That’s great! I wonder how many trees we kill for toilet paper? Happy weekend!

  • Jennifer UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Feb 24, 2007 at 4:22 pm

    The value of soft toilet paper can not be underestimated:) I accidentally bought the cheep, cheep single ply at Costco of all places. Apparently they put twice as much on the roll because it is single ply so it takes you twice as long to run out of the stuff. I have about 8 more rolls to use before I can buy the soft stuff again:)

  • Shoshana UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 4:33 pm

    I love your take on the theme! This just reminds me of my daughter who took a pack of 24 TP and rolled herself into it with the help of her little brother. I couldn’t take picture, it was a Saturday and we were religious then, but the memory can still make me giggle.

    Did I mention she plasted Desitin all over her face so she will be all white?

  • Mari UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 24, 2007 at 6:52 pm

    Now that is definitely something that needs to be soft!!

  • Stacy UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 7:23 pm

    That’s funny. I wasn’t expecting to open up the page and see toliet paper, even if it does fit the theme:smile:

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 24, 2007 at 7:54 pm

    MamaDuck , My husband Shawn did the modifications to the cutline theme. He owns Invision-Graphics.com.

  • Autumn UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 9:17 pm

    I had to giggle when I saw the toliet paper. What an orginial idea!

  • Desert Diva UNITED STATES Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.10 // Feb 24, 2007 at 10:16 pm

    Yep, that’s soft. Great choice for this week’s theme. Have a great weekend!

  • Teena in Toronto CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 10:50 pm

    I bought cheap toilet paper a couple months ago and I never heard the end of it from Gord. Sigh …

    Mine’s up too :)

  • Bella UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 11:17 pm

    I wasn’t expecting toilet paper in the hunt today, but it makes perfect sense! LOL

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 11:25 pm

    Bella, I’m full of surprises.

    Teena, I cannot say I blame Gord.

    Desert Diva, thanks. You too!

    Autumn glad that I brought a laugh.

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 24, 2007 at 11:39 pm

    Stacy, what were you expecting?
    Mari, you bet!
    Shoshana that would have been something to see.
    Jennifer, I’m now using Charmin

    Mom, you only posted a picture of toilet paper for this week photo hunt, cause you are full of poop. I’m just kidding. I guess if I wasn’t grounded before this comment, I am now LMAO. My photo is up!

    Your Brat Miss Pink:lol:

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Feb 25, 2007 at 7:32 pm

    Me too Amy!

    Hey watch it there Miss Pink or I’ll make you scrub the toilet. :twisted:

  • Bernare MALAYSIA Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 // Feb 26, 2007 at 8:21 pm

    Cute! Reminds me of the toilet paper advertisement in Malaysian TV of the softness of it’s brand. :-)

  • marie CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Oct 9, 2007 at 9:54 am

    Great idea for the softness photo.

    Now, I have a huge “beef” about toilet paper and here in Canada, it is the 2 taxes that we have to pay on it.

    It looks like the government thinks that toilet paper is a luxury.

    If it wasn’t such a “gross subject” I think I would like to start a national campaign to abolish the those taxes.

    Your opinion on this subjet please….

    Marie
