Moustache Monday: Bolsheviks!
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
Scot points out that your cheap, uncomfortable paper towels may be turning your employees against you. Indeed, this gentleman has already acquired both the demeanor and moustache of the Communist. In other news, were you aware that you can catch Fascism from public restroom toilet seats? Believe it.

Many years ago I was given a framed copy of this as a housewarming gift- never thought I’d see it anywhere else.

I Caught Fascism From A Toilet Seat Once. It’s True, Fortunately The Uncomfortable Paper Towels Counteracted It And I Was Fine The Next Morning.

I, for one, welcome our new paper towel overlords

If poor paper towels breed communism, what about that crappy 12/256th ply toilet paper public bathrooms always have? And that nasty smelling green soap has to rate at least a pogrom.
Now is the bathroom of our discontent…

Scot brand sends mixed messages, because, while they claim that their towel prevents communism, their moustached mascot looks startlingly similar to Orwell’s “Big Brother”
