You can't beat a Newfie when it comes to inventions

A Native American walks into a corner store and asks the cashier if there's any toilet paper for sale. The cashier responded, "We have 2 kinds of toilet paper, the premium super soft 3 ply Charmin and our cheap store brand that doesn't have a name." "Give me the cheap one." And the guy went home. A few days later, the Native American comes back and tells the cashier that he's come up with a name for their store brand toilet paper: John Wayne. "Why? Because he's rough and he's tough and he don't take any s-h-i-t from Indians.

Perhaps we should get the Red Cross and the U.N. to airdrop masses of T.P. into Australia. It'd definitely be a humanitarian mission of the highest order and the most useful thing out of them in a long time.

The paper towels are delivered pre-mud slinging I presume.

Yes, people are amazing... often for the wrong reasons.

All I can say is, if someone posts that us Aussie's are full of S**t, they are probably going to be right!!!

It is a global crisis. Local media reported Costco was running out and people rushed in to buy all they could. It was nuts. And now people are stealing it from public buildings and restrooms. It could be the new currency.
