Sheryl Crow calls for bog roll restrictions

Post by Dadaist » 23 Apr 2007, 14:14

3 sheets max, and only then if it's "troublesome"

wtmf????

do her poos have a bog brush attached to the end, self-cleaning her celebrity sphincter?

my life, if every celebrity has an opinion like this on some privation one must endure in order to appease the latest environmental mores then we've got a miserable life ahead of us

we got one of those mega packs of bumwipe from Costco - in Sheryl Crow's house this may well be a lifetime supply but not here in Dada Towers.

This goes in the same bag as when I "invented" the car with a steering wheel on each end, and you said that there already was a "push me - pull you" or something.

There must already be plenty of patents logged for bottom cleanliness - and it wouldn't surprise me if someone invented a capsule with enteric coating such that it emerged as a functioning cleaning system attached to the end of each poo - like the corkscrew bit on the end of a torpedo.

I'm sure you'd sing like a canary.

Probably not bad, but not as good as Kate Pierson, I'll bet.

I hate Sheryl Crow for lots of reasons, not least of all musically, but this takes the biscuit.
She and her campaign can definitely 'get to Falkirk' as far as I'm concerned.

Maybe like a lot of celebrities she just doesn't eat? Or has colonic irrigation on a daily basis?

Who's going to monitor the "one-square" rule, and will every house have a mediator in case of disputable "troublesome-ness". :pottytrain5:

I am going to market a roll whose sheets are 4ft long each. Dragon's Den will love this genuine innovative entrepreneurialness.

Saw Sheryls comments today.
Was puzzled
Does she use a bidet instead?

Does she propose policing this by making us leave the used sheet in a bin Greek style?

I think the Dragons will worry about how easy and quickly the well established loo roll manufacturers could copy you. Before I consider investing, I need to know, "Do you have a patent?" 8)

I'm feeling a certain synergistic relationship between the initial hot nip of Reggae Reggae Sauce and the relaxing wipe of Big Roll.

That song has a ring to it OH NO, PUN ALERT - THREAD DEATH - AAARGH!

To be fair to the brush, it didn't actually say it was being used for teeth.

My mum used to keep a bag of old toothbrushes for if we ever came home with dog's dirt on our shoes. Boy did I ever not want there to be a mixup.

Neither wonder. You would have looked like Ali Bongo with toothbrushes on your feet, especially if they were odd.

Not that old. Wasn't he married to her that played the jewel thief a couple of times in Bergerac - you know, the one he used to fancy and let her get away?

She was on Give Us A Clue too.

That's what I was about to say Marya. You beat me to it. I'm sure he was married (or still is) to Victoria Wood.

VW was married to Geoffrey Durham an English comedy magician who was known for many years as The Great Soprendo.

They separated in 2002.

:o Ahhh that's right Poppy (what a smartypants). I remember him now.
He was a chubby cheery chappie. Now that you've jogged my memory did he not write the material Ali Bongo used?

Tying the knot with a magician must be a tricky business.

I was thinking of Liza Goddard. She was married to Alvin Stardust.
