Clearly our thoughts on recycled toilet tissue have changed...But that is one skillful use of scare tactics!

That's got to be the most frightening advertisement I've ever seen. Jesus!

Could they make this ad any more manipulative?

Toilet Tissue Illness is apparently no joke! :grin:

Actually, I can sort of sympathize with the toilet tissue troubles as I have multiple chemical sensitivities and can't use some brands. Scott is one of those brands, perhaps because they haven't changed their formula since the days when this ad was in circulation.

I really never want to associate "surgical instruments" and "my rectum". Please, God, I don't want to be a rectal case!

Millions of women are using this tissue! Idiot men are still using corn cobs.

In my 35 years on this planet, this is the first time I've ever heard of "toilet tissue illness".

I suppose you learn something new every day... but since I've gone 35 years without being afflicted with this, I'm not exactly going to start worrying about it. :)

So, use this toilet paper, or someone with horrifying black rubber gloves might have to cut into your asshole?

This is the most disturbing thing I've seen in awhile.

"65% of all men and women over 40 suffer from SOME SORT OF RECTAL ILLNESS". Define rectal illness, please. Hmmm.... on second thought, don't. Ew.

Rectal illness?
"Sorry, I can't come in to work today, I have rectal illness."

This calls for the "fear-mongering" tag!

My guess is that they're referring to hemorrhoids, which can be exacerbated by rough toilet paper but is not likely to be the cause. If your hemorrhoids get to a point that you need surgery, you're too far gone for a different toilet paper to help.
