Man Size Tissues???

[aaron]

Rite,

Has anyone ever thought why big arse boxes of tissues are called "Man Size Tissues"?? Have you ever seen a man blow his nose with "Man Size Tissues"?

And also...

That new Bountey kitchen roll shit.... Wot do they mean when the say on the TV ad: Have you tried it wet yet? And: Strong even when wet?? erm.. surly they arnt implying you use Bounty to "clean up" after yourself!!

LOL

I been usin' bog roll to blow my runny nose.

That Bounty stuff is s'posed to be the dogs danglies when it comes to wipin' up. Can't say I've tried it myself

the fact uve not had to use it to clear up means one of two things...

1) you can catch it in ur mouth/aim in someone else`s mouth

2) you aint a kitchen hoe
