<\/a><\/p>\n“It’s time to get real about what happens in the bathroom,” one woman exclaims. “And start talking about what you really want from your toilet paper,” another woman exhorts.<\/p>\n
Well, Quilted Northern, don’t take this the wrong way, but I need to respond. “No thanks!” and “Never!”<\/p>\n
That is, don’t we do ENOUGH talking in this country about all kinds of issues and topics?<\/p>\n
Can we draw a line SOMEWHERE?<\/p>\n
I have … my line to not talking starts where the bathroom door opens, closes and re-opens. What happens in my bathroom … STAYS IN MY BATHROOM!<\/p>\n
Sorry Quilted Northern, but I won’t discuss ANYTHING that goes on in the bathroom … I can’t and I won’t.<\/p>\n
Maybe it’s just me, but my bathroom is OFF LIMITS! Perhaps growing up with a father who combined coffee drinking, smoking, sweating and gosh knows what else in there has made me kinda’ sensitive to not discussing matters of the bathroom.<\/p>\n
See … I said too much already.<\/p>\n
