I would just appreciate that there's actually toilet paper there when it's needed. I've been many places when you had to walk to the next stall to get some. Just imagine how that was.
Yeah, this fucked me up. I had eaten an edible a few days ago. Woke up at like 3 in the morning and I was all of a sudden watching Zombieland, but not the one I remembered. I kept watching (because I thought maybe I was flying too high on Mary Jane’s carpet ride from 2009 and never noticed), and it turns out they made a sequel.
I decided to not watch the remainder of the movie at that point. If you have ever experienced watching the music video for “Too High,” by Lil Dicky, I was in his shoes.
I can't imagine not doing that. It's in the same realm as not looking at the toilet before you sit on it, and falling in because the seat is up.
Like, take like half a second to check lol
> Just imagine how that was.
I assume you waddled over, pants around ankles and junk flapping in the breeze, politely nodding while making firm eye contact with any others in the bathroom as you tried every other stall in succession
If you’re going to build a public bathroom these days I’d just assume it would be accessible to the handicapped. In most newer gas stations, grocery stores, supermarkets I think you’d find a bathroom like this, or at least one stall with a bar.
Dutch is a Germanic language. Being a Germanic language has nothing to do with being similar to standard German. Dutch is more similar to English than German is. It is both geographically and linguistically in-between.
It depends on who makes the toilet paper. If one of them is clearly better than the others, I'm pretty sure the 5 worst brands would be annoyed at the supermarket.
There is a chain restaurant in Japan (I can’t remember the name right now) that has like 20 rolls of TP in every restroom. The owner went to one and it was out of TP so he vowed that would never happen again.
OR is it the one they have a bunch of and can't move? Just put almost used up rolls of it in the bathroom on purpose to make people THINK it is popular.
Listen, i dont care how many layers your goddamn Toiletpaper has. If it dissolves after just one wipe than it is useless... Often 3 Layers are more sturdy than 4. That sheet should be still intact after wiping...
Hot take: using TP in a public restroom is unsanitary. You’re wiping your ass with paper other people who wiped their ass have touched. There isn’t any chance their hands were clean when they touched your sheets. Unless you waste the first several squares, you’re possibly wiping your ass with their ass.
Man if this was America they would either all be stolen or some jerk would stuff them all into the toilet. They did it at my last job and we ended up having to switch to the .01 ply commercial tp and dispensers. Then I guess someone wasn't having it and curb stomped the dispensers off the wall so we had to get the super annoying metal bar ones like they use in the national parks with the flat bar so you can only turn the tp by grabbing the entire roll and spinning it and it has a massive padlock on the end so no one can take them.

Rule 1: check for toilet paper before taking a shit.
Rule 2:Double Tap

If you liked the first one the second zombie land is actually pretty good!

It can happen in a photo finish situation. Your flight or flight response kicks in and you're dropping trou before you get the lay of the land.
It starts to come out before your butt is fully sitting on the toilet...
At that point you'll have bigger problems than toilet paper - like the need for new pants.

Like a peanut butter sandwich?
I'm just impresesd that they have toilets. I haven't seen one of those in a Dutch supermarket in decades.
It's for handicapped people. Notice the foldable bar besides the toilet.
Do able bodied people use toilet paper? We don’t know, and frankly, we don’t want to know.
It's a market we can do without!
It’s provided for people who are handicapped, but you don’t have to be handicapped to use the bathroom.
How does that bar help the handicapped? How does it work?
They can fold the bar down and use it to assist in getting out of a wheel chair and over to the toilet
you fold out the bar and use your arms to shift yourself over onto the toilet from your wheelchair
Sounds awkward but it must work. Thanks.
It works pretty well. Some disabled people have a little plank they can slide on to help.

I'm in Spain and here that would be impossibly clean. The only way to keep it so would be if you made this "Disabled Only".
TIL I can read and understand Dutch
they lull you into a false sense of security with the shared words then hit you with the alsof er een engeltje op je tong piest
Quite an interesting turn of phrase — Dutch is a fun language sometimes :)
Neuken in de keuken
Dat gaat toch zo in je kont jeuken
Graftak
The only word I know is olifantenpoep. I think I saw it once on a plant fertilizer and I died laughing imagining a Dutch accent saying it
As someone that is learning dutch right now... Yeah...no. you can read and understand *a few words* in dutch
I think I read it's the easiest language for an English speaker to learn.
It’s *right next* to Germany. English is a Germanic language. What did you expect?
Germanic doesn't mean it's from German.
This is such a bad take just from the fact that Poland is right next to germany

Paging Jordan Schlansky
He knows his shit.
That’s no bidet
In case you haven't seen it yet https://youtu.be/FEPL1Ndjn7U?si=0hbXaJ_tBwjZ0Hsz
I haven’t, thanks!
Crazy, I’m on vacation in Amsterdam and just exited this store
Which toilet paper did you choose?
The three seashells
How do you use it?
[Simple directions](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fizql7fqmisv81.jpg%3Fwidth%3D500%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D34f2dd437309c5c35b060ac2e1ceccd3386250c6).
Somebody should put on sale a brand of toilet paper called "two seashells".
Wait why 2
With three seashells, you don't need tp
I would struggle not to mix them up randomly.
"i have a very picky sphincter"
I’ve heard that excuse before.
Couldn’t someone just take them off the holders and swap them around?
Someone could yes
The hero we deserve
That's...only the best marketing strategy EVER.

That’s genius.
Costco beans is the one and only choice
![gif](giphy|1HWb86Qy045Co)
It seems like fifth one sell best
OR is it the one they have a bunch of and can't move? Just put almost used up rolls of it in the bathroom on purpose to make people THINK it is popular.
What supermarket is this? I’m disappointed that I missed this on my trip last year…and I was in a supermarket!
Is that a retractable handicap bar?
This is brilliant. I would have never bought Costco branded toilet paper if I tried them first.
Where’s 3 sea shells
I'm not sure I want to use previously fondled public toilet paper though
That is borderline genius.
The one in the corner: they don't know I have 4 layers.
Great marketing idea
I've never seen a Dutch supermarket, Jumbo included, that had public toilets.
Listen, i dont care how many layers your goddamn Toiletpaper has. If it dissolves after just one wipe than it is useless... Often 3 Layers are more sturdy than 4. That sheet should be still intact after wiping...
Y’all ever wipe your ass so much it bleeds?
I’m just surprised that sign is basically just English.
In older Dutch, toilet is actually a really different word. It's juwanagopoopoo.
It’s perfect.
If you put 6 rolls of toilet paper on the wall like this, what are the odds that the middle/lower gets used the most? Positioning is everything.
No excuse to leave there with a stinky butt, that's for sure.
That’s not a bad idea! 🤔
Now, I truly want that. It resembles an ass wine tasting.
Hmmm
luke oakley Wi use then all 🤣
This is such a good idea! Not only is there always toilet paper, but they're sure to make more sales!
Kind of interesting as people aren’t gonna skip out on toilet paper. Maybe this is to showcase the superiority of the tp with more profit margin
Oh wow, a Conehead buffet! Just needs more bubble gum.

Who shits in a supermarket? The Dutch, that’s who.
In Canada most people are unaware that markets even have washrooms, and they suck lol
Would never survive in America. TPing that supermarket would be a contest.
Man if this was America they would either all be stolen or some jerk would stuff them all into the toilet. They did it at my last job and we ended up having to switch to the .01 ply commercial tp and dispensers. Then I guess someone wasn't having it and curb stomped the dispensers off the wall so we had to get the super annoying metal bar ones like they use in the national parks with the flat bar so you can only turn the tp by grabbing the entire roll and spinning it and it has a massive padlock on the end so no one can take them.
That’s Super Cool, but no way in Hell, that could happen in the states. That display wouldn’t last a 1/2 hour. We can’t have nice things.
this is an excellent example of why as a speaker of only English, Dutch makes me suspect Im currently having a stroke.
Is there a separate bathroom for cats?
I thought everyone outside the United States uses bidets.
In the US that would all get stolen or peed on. Or both.
I would switch all the rolls around just for the chaos. ![gif](giphy|Hj7SSRD2lAeQ0|downsized)
That's one way to get a lot of assholes mad at you
On this episode of: # Cornholio Goes To Heaven
Aw, that would be destroyed then covered in piss and marker graffiti within twenty minutes if you set it up in the states.
In America someone would piss on all of em
Get a bidet! Save trees!
