Danish bathroom ads dispense with nuance
(Larger image here, if you're so inclined.) It only took 10 years, but Goatse has broken into mainstream advertising courtesy of these public toilet-paper dispensers from Denmark, sponsored by Silk Soft and credited to an ad agency called By Far. (The goal, apparently, was to get across the idea that Silk Soft is 100 percent recycled.) There have certainly been ad parodies referencing ol' hello.jpg before, but this is the most direct homage to date. It also doesn't make any sense, from what I've gathered about the mechanics of toilet paper over the years. But logic has never stopped the fall of man before, and it's not likely to start now. —Posted by David Kiefaber |

Just think, if the TP was brown, that would really be the s**t.

I suspect that this system may be open to abuse...

I'd hate to go in after some bummer who'd thought it was a sex toy and ruined all the paper.

Jacob, I must say I found your tale very interesting and informative. Do you have more?

I find it sickening! Pulling a tissue form it is something very hard to imagine! But the idea is unique!
