In my local library there is a toilet roll dispenser with a company name on it (I forget the company) and the slogen 'less is more' Now, I don't know about you but when it comes to toilet paper, I'd prefer more rather than less, I hate having to wait for it to dry out afterwards.

What else don't you want to see on consumer goods?

Ahez thats a bit stingy innit - they're only about a penny each. I guess past experience would tell you whether they are worth buying or not.

penny each? no they're not. I just eat a couple anyway and if anyone says anything i claim to be dyslexic and I thought it said try before you buy.

well, I used to work at woolies and they're about 6p each minimum! So I want freebies!

I also hate it when the picture shows you a delicious meal and you open the packet or can or whatever, and the food inside looks like a shrivelled, anorexic, anaemic, shocked version of the packaging.

on a hair dryer..."Do not use while sleeping"

If anyone did, I'd call that natural selection.

Thats why it always says "serving suggestion" in small print...just so you know that if it doesn't turn out right , it's YOU that fucked up, not the manufacturer. Of course.

Waking up in the morning and seeing saliva dribbling down the side of my partners open mouth.
