Moonbats Advocate Reusable Toilet Wipes

Forget Cheryl Croak demanding we use only one sheet of toilet paper. Forget sanctimonious Euroweenies chiding Americans for causing "ecological destruction" by making our TP too soft. The global warming hoax has now truly hit bottom:

What you see above are reusable cloth toilet wipes. According to advocates, reusables not only save the polar bears by supporting a natural lifestyle, but also have the advantage that they "can be used wet without any of the sopping disintegration that regular toilet paper is prone to." If you like to use wet toilet paper but hate that pesky sopping disintegration, these could be for you.

There's always the possibility that people won't choose to use rags instead of toilet paper. But if the government can take away our light bulbs, it can take away our Charmin too.

I just pissed all over a pack of Charmin Ultra and went and threw it is the ditch behind my house. From this point forward, I am going to do that every time someone comes up with a stupid idea like this.

Anyone care to explain why Chinese toys made with lead are dangerous but Chinese lightbulbs made with mercury are mandatory?

This a great example of someone working hard to become the number one person in the number two business.

Toilet paper is not made from old growth forests! It is made from pulp trees grown on farms that use modern, sustainable methods specifically for the purpose of manufacturing! If these farms did not exist, the wildlife that thrives in those environments would suffer.

Stupid enviropsychos are too damned lazy to let facts get in their way!

Yet another movement toward a Muzzie lifestyle.

Achmed says - first we take away the Satain West's toilet paper. Next we make them wipe their asses with the left hand like we all do in modern islam society. We are superior! Make them bend to our will.

Posted by: Oiao at March 1, 2009 12:36 PM

Paper saved, but even more energy and water wasted since these pretty little poopie wipies have to be washed.

Er, the enviro-wackjobs do intend to wash them, don't they?

Posted by: The MaryHunter at March 1, 2009 12:45 PM

What other kind of poppycock will their stupid green moonbats come up with its enough they were wanting horses fitten with silly diapars or for CHERYL OLD CROW to come up with this stupid one peice of toilet paper its rediculous and stupid as this stupid EARTH HOUR proving liberal moonbats have absolutly no brains left their brains were wrecked by their addiction to veggies and stupididy

Crow was joking when she said 'one square' - but liberals should be made to use corncobs left over from the manufacture of ethanol.

Posted by: Jimbo at March 1, 2009 1:00 PM

I'm trying to envision how much bleach and scalding hot water I'd have to use in my washing machine (correction - my SECOND washing machine) to ever adapt something like this. I'm picturing a setup like they'd use in a hospital to sterilize bedding in a post-op ward.
I'll stick with 2-ply, thanks.

Posted by: PabloD at March 1, 2009 1:09 PM

In actuality, the person selling the wipes (me) does not advocate them for use in saving the polar bears. In fact, the person selling the wipes believes polar bears are just fine, thank you. However, wipes are very soft, and get you much cleaner.

Actually, listening to Dr. Dean Edell (syndicated medical advice show) today, he said he doesn't understand paper TP, either. Put something dirty on your hand, then see how easy it is to clean with TP, then try a damp cloth or running water. This is why I started using them.

I'm honestly surprised and shocked at the vitriol coming from some commenters. Take a minute to read and learn a bit about what/who you're painting with the liberal envirowacko brush.

Posted by: Sarah at March 1, 2009 1:46 PM

I do my best to do #2 just before my morning shower. When I fail, I want something that works for wiping my bum.
I think that the people calling for less TP usage are forgetting or excusing certain mornings. Booze and spicy/greasy foods change bodily functions.

I will NEVER go out with someone named SARAH again (hope that's your real name), or go to their house even....UGH!! Can you imagine the clothes hamper!!!

Posted by: TED at March 1, 2009 2:10 PM

OR are you going to tell us you run right down to the washing machine and wash it - UGH! OR give it a quick rense in the sink,,,,where you wash your face - UGH! NASTY SARAH......!!!

Posted by: TED at March 1, 2009 2:15 PM

Why don't we all just wipe our asses with the constitution like that jerk obama.

Posted by: yomama at March 1, 2009 2:25 PM

Sarah, we're not really mad about the thing... until it's made mandatory. I grew up wearing cloth diapers, and I'm extremely frugal about everything I do. Reusable wipes would be a great option for some people. It's just not a good idea for us all. We fear anything being forced on us like the lightbulbs. Those new lightbulbs have ruined my business, because they give off a tinted light and it effects my artwork. I can't get regular lightbulbs anymore.

Personally, I'm just going to put a toilet seat on top of my washing machine and cut right to the chase.

Posted by: J at March 1, 2009 2:36 PM

I just checked out Sarah's Website.......in her defense, she doesn't mention Polar Bears or anything of the like, and I suppose if people choose to use these wipes....to each his own.

What I don't understand are the "Natural living" and "economical" selling points....

First....isn't toilet paper natural? I mean, it comes from trees.

Second....economical? As someone mentioned above, how many more loads of laundry and how much more soap,water and electricity will be used?

Keep in mind.....forests are a renewable resource and harvested every 30 years or so. So by using paper products, you are supporting the planting or re-seeding of millions of acres of trees every year......

The same goes for buying a Christmas tree.....there are thousands of Christmas tree farms in this country....each with many fields of trees. So by cutting a christmas tree, you are supporting 5 to 7 more fields of trees waiting to be rotated....multiplied by thousands of Christmas tree farms.

That's the real poop.

the first nappy on the right with the bunny rabbit reminds me of a joke:

"Rabbit and Bear

A bear and a rabbit are taking a crap in the woods when the bear leans over to the rabbit and asks it if he has a problem with poop sticking to his fur. The rabbit says no so the bear takes the rabbit and wipes his butt with the rabbit."

Posted by: nancz at March 1, 2009 3:41 PM

sorry, nappy on the left...

Posted by: nancz at March 1, 2009 3:43 PM

My Lord, these weirdos get weirder every damn day! Leave us the hell alone! Get out of our lives, you fascist scum! The words "despise you" don't even begin to cut it . . .

Posted by: jc14 at March 1, 2009 3:45 PM

My tender assed ex used to use baby wipes but he flushed them (wasn't stupid enough to even suggest I wash them). Don't think that's what they have in mind but it may be the result if Sarah convinces people regular TP just doesn't do the job. Clogged sewer lines everywhere. Does that fit the definition of "moonbattery?"

Posted by: bertie at March 1, 2009 4:07 PM

My dad, who served in Nth. Africa in WW2, would have been amused at this.
He said it was a rule that toilet paper use was limited to 3 sheets a sitting (say that slowly for clarity) and that 3 sheets were just enough for 2 wipes and a polish...

Posted by: Ayrdale at March 1, 2009 4:27 PM

What a complete load of horse apples. The sopping disintegration is designed into the paper so it doesn't remain intact. How much hotter would your wash water have to be to sterilize this stuff?!
Earth hour will become earth night, and all those who have lights on will get their electricity turned off.

At the end of Young Frankenstein, Madeleine Kahn announces to hubby Peter Boyle (the Monster) that's she's set up two hampers--one for clothes and one for "socks and poo-poo undies." I guess these reusable wipies could go in that second hamper.

Posted by: ruddie at March 1, 2009 5:27 PM

"In actuality, the person selling the wipes (me) does not advocate them for use in saving the polar bears."
The use of the term "Saving the polar bears" is a kind of slang term that Van Helsing uses for stupid, ridiculous products or measures which are seemingly intended to aid the environment, specifically global warming, since many of the global warming scaremongers try to guilt trip us by claiming that unless we start living like the Flintstones, global warming will cause all the polar bears to go extinct as a result of the melting polar ice caps.

"Do enviromentalist moonbats have reusible brains?"


Would you really want one that full of $hit??

Posted by: TED at March 1, 2009 6:53 PM

I will make sure to wipe my ass three to four times now and flush my toilet just as many times. I think that I will take a fat nasty on my liberal congressmen's front porch. Fuck all these GOD-DAMN liberal enviromental choads. Your time will come Liberals, lefty fuck sticks. I am hostile again. CLICK CLICK!!!!! Locked and loaded I am!!!!

Posted by: Sage at March 1, 2009 8:00 PM

Sarah, I have a few suggestions for you.

First, if they were embroidered with "Hope and Change" or "Yes We Can" I think you would sell a lot more.I for one, would gladly wipe to that.

Second, be careful not to sell too many.....you may become successful, in which case you will be considered a problem and therefore punished.

Posted by: turner at March 2, 2009 6:15 AM

What happens when you have explosive diahrea? Can you imagine having rinse, wipe, rise, wipe, rinse. How much water would that use? Not to mention everthing you touch would be covered in poo. Okay, I know Mythbusters proved that bathrooms and even unopened tooth brushes are contaminated with poo to a limited degree, but using reusable wipes would be 100 times worse.

Posted by: Anonymous at March 2, 2009 6:19 AM

After reading this while in the bathroom, I used 2 rolls of tp, and flushed the toilet 20 times! Hands off my ass!

Posted by: john aka schwein at March 2, 2009 6:28 AM

Plus, this is offensive to other family members. I don't think marriage vows call for dealing with this sort of....household duty...(sorry) on a regular basis. Plus, it doesn't do much for sex appeal between spouses & partners, does it?

Thanks, but no thanks Sarah.
Betula, funny comment on the succesfulness of the venture!

Posted by: Karin at March 2, 2009 6:41 AM

My family has used cloth baby diapers for quite a few generations. The cost of one name brand pack of diapers will wash over 15 loads of laundry + soap.
I do not belive in global warming, it snowed twice last year in Texas. However, I don't diss the inventor of "cloth TP" either.
To each their own.
Actually, I think the prints are cute. So I ordered a few.

Posted by: Amber S. at March 2, 2009 9:12 AM

wow someone invented.... the washcloth! good for them. and what about the energy for washing and the mildew.... iky!

plenty of asswipes in washington.

These patterns remind me of the doll blankets my nieces used to play with when they were little girls.

Posted by: Graycat at March 2, 2009 1:33 PM

Just jump in the shower after a big country s---.
I just use the paper towels when not at home as the tp is touched by those of questionable hygene and the towels are usually used by those who have just washed their hands. they work fine and its really hard to stop up an industrial.
And if you do, Then brag about stopping up an industrial. I do.
but washable cloth? Eeeh, not so much

Posted by: Liberal neighbors at March 2, 2009 6:36 PM

The healthy diets of us moonbats give us nice, clean wipes. but then again, you lard asses wouldn't understand that. I can pretty much guarantee that all those Big Macs, Extreme Gulps and dinners at Applebees make things quite messy down there...
