The Charmin Extender: Hold Those Big Rolls

Posted 04.10.2005 by Stew Brown (24)
I would like to introduce the PoopReport community to an advancement that I think will revolutionize the way we think about toilet paper rolls.

On a recent trip to a popular, low-cost chain store that rhymes with "ball-mart," I ventured into the toilet paper aisle expecting what I always expected: gargantuan rolls of toilet paper for an affordable price that I couldn't use because they were too big for my standard roll holder.

Over the years, I have been dismayed by the fact that as toilet paper rolls got bigger, the standard roll holder remained the same. Have you ever bought a new "bigger and better" roll only to realize that it just barely fits in the holder? If you're like me, you can't afford to take time out of your day to break in a new roll. And what happens when the roll holder is compromised and jams up under the pressure that the new roll is exerting on its tiny frame? It's the same damn thing with hot dogs. You buy bigger and better hotdogs, only to realize that you just bought twelve and you can only buy buns in packs of eight! What kind of crap do they think they're pulling here?! You get screwed when you buy the hotdogs and then when you're crappin' them out, you're getting screwed because your roll holder is overextended!

The Charmin Extender. (Editor, please bold these words as they make me happy.)

Once I thought there were no good people left in the world. Now I know there is one company that is fighting for all our rights to have a roll and a roll holder created equally. The new Charmin Extender allows you to put a big roll in a small holder by extending the holder by half an inch. Half an inch! What this means to you and me is that we finally have the freedom to not fear the big roll.

Once, the big rolls were left to the specially trained, or those with specialized equipment designed to handle a full roll. Now anyone is able to enjoy the extra wiping power provided by the big rolls. Our butts have been opened to possibilities never before imaginable. Now, if you will excuse me -- I have a few dingleberries I am going to show who is boss, thanks to the extra wiping power of The Charmin Extender!

Yeah, hot dogs are in packs of 10, buns in packs of 8... whatever, his point is still perfectly valid. I've had so many instances of toilet paper rolls bigger than my holder. They don't roll! They're awful. This extender is great.

Bunghole Delight (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

Hot dogs have never came in packs of twelve.

ParaPooper (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

Tx Stew, the extender idea is long overdue. But I am curious, how does the extender stay out straight from the wall? Doesn't gravity make it fall down and the roll the drag on the bottom half making a free spinning roll drag and rip before adequate TP is offered? Great Idea! Just not sure it is enough gap. I will get one for free from them and report back later.
Over and Out!

Speaking of ass wipe, has anyone else seen the new "Kandoo" brand of big kid baby wipes? The have a pic of a frog wiping it's ass on the front of the box. Guess everything sells better with demonstrative graphics.

Rectal Inversion (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

Now some little demon kid out there will catch a frog, then start wiping his ass! This will surely remove protective mucus from the frog's skin, possibly causing an infection and death.
Incidentally, this frog comment reminds me once I accidentally dropped a toad down near some of my plastic Army men. One with a rifle ended up puncturing the frogs throat, and later he died. I've been traumatized ever since..

ParaPooper (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

lol...I just went to the charmin link and signed up for the free extender and saw the "demo" clip on it. It shows baby bear sneaking out to go poo next to a tree down the path (he must be a shameful shitter if he has to sneak to poo in the middle of the night). The tree just happens to have a roll of TP on it (empty of course) and the little guy has to call out to his Mom for more TP. Mom is asleep down the patha nd wakes up and smiling widely, brings the smiling baby bear no less the 4 rolls of TP, which then are magically pressed into one roll and go on the holder with the help of the new "extender". A spellbinding story line and performance that will be up for an oscar I'm sure. The baby bear squats most perfectly behind the tree so as not to be seen pooing when Momma Bear hands him the new roll. He is smiling as he accepts the roll, so maybe he is not shameful shitter...A classic for poopreport though. Any other viewers of the clip?

Marcos (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

Hasn't this been around for years?

And what about the roll holder that releases a fresh scent with each tug?

I can only imagine the perks that a rich man would have in his can.

Poopster39 (189) -- 04.10.2005

Didn't you know? Rich people don't wipe their own butts. They have others do it for them. And they never use ordinary toilet paper. Perish the thought. How gauche. They use baby wipes only. Afterward, their cracks are sprayed with the scent-of-the-day.

the shitter (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

hot dogs are in packs of 8

El Poopadore (46) -- 04.10.2005

someone should collect all this stuff and make a prop-poo-ganda section for it

C Everett Poop (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

I want one of those industrial-sized units like you find in military latrines. You know the kind of toilet paper dispensers that you only have to refill once a year? The down side to that is that you can only fine one ply toilet paper, but hey - after being at sea long enough you kind of start to look forward to that kind of action.

Poop Diddy (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

I think this is made for the guys that hate going to the store to buy toilet paper.

The Amazing Anus (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

You guys are luckey, I don't even HAVE a rolley-thingy in my bathroom.

The Shit Volcano (3740) -- 04.10.2005

I never use the rolly thing anyway. I just stick the fucking toilet paper roll on the nearby bathroom counter and grab it when I need to wipe. Solves the whole problem.

Still, that wiper-extender thing looks pretty cool!

anus (not verified) -- 04.10.2005

I don't use toilet paper. Bare hands work just fine.

Crapslikeclockwork (58) -- 04.11.2005

Everytime I see Charmin I think "does a bear shit in the woods". I wonder if this is the idea behind the bear and why haven't more people got the joke?

Slim Jim Junkie (not verified) -- 04.11.2005

I just bought a package of Kleenex extralagre rolls, wondering if they would fit.

I was thinking of modifying the TP holder. The Charmin TP extender is a much better idea.

Pebbly Poo (not verified) -- 04.11.2005

OMG, craps, I never even THOUGHT about the bear shitting in the woods angle of the Charmin commercials! That is so funny!

There was a night many years ago when an ex and I were visting a friend at his (unbeknownst to us) toilet-less cabin in the country. In the middle of the night (in the middle of our partying), the ex (Bobby) got the urge and then became aware of the cabin's lack of facilities... Undaunted, he made his way out among the trees surrounding the cabin and did his biz. As he emerged from them, I said, "Now we can answer questions in the affirmative by saying, 'Does Bobby shit in the woods?'"

Stew Brown (24) -- 04.11.2005

Dear PoopReport Community,

It troubles my soul to the core that hot dogs don't come in 12 packs. Those piece of crap scumbags! How can they let this go on!!! Is there no end to their greed!!! They'll manipulate your minds until you believe that hot dogs and buns come in different quantity packs than is truly the case! It's maddening! At least now I can take solace in the fact that my rolls will no longer be hindered by oppressive capitalistic scum who thinks we should all have air conditioning and refrigerators!

Now if only someone would only open the bowl up to allow for larger discharge. Why do I have to be confined to a standard pipe! Plungers wouldn't even be necessary if some virtuous company would just allow for large loads. I say increase the pipe diameter by at least six inches. Let my feces flow freely!!!! We may lose small children and pets down the drain, but it would be a small sacrafice to what we are losing now... OUR FREEDOM!!!

The Dump King (not verified) -- 04.13.2005

Stew Brown, thank you for bringing such a wonderful invention to our attention. Have not, waste not! Now, I won't waste economy rolls that are too big for the roll. Now, if someone can make an extender for the plunger so we don't get crap on our hands when it gets clogged.. the world would be a better place.

Jobie (not verified) -- 04.22.2005

After reading and analyzing the aforementioned articles...I was quite astonished at how primitive the working class really is. Being of the Connecticut shipping industrial "Montgomery's" (Thank you), I find it much more convenient to have Native Americans wipe my ass after a good "vacancy". They are not only known for being alcoholics and construction workers, but also great at the art of wiping. Which brings me to the roll situation...I personally prefer to use garments from slave labor countries...it's important to remember that their dreams are important too...that's why I always look for the Guatamalan Label. Those poor Lutheran bitches.

daphne (3608) -- 06.14.2005

If the Charmin Bears were correctly depicted, they would be in tiny cages with pieces of their skin torn off for testing.

Fucking Charmin.

Nice toilet paper holder though.

Crappen Geocacher (not verified) -- 06.23.2005

funny stuff here, ive seen this charmin paper on my grocery shelves, but never bought it. I tend to keep my Toilet paper sitting on the potty, so it usually never sees the TP holder.

I suppose (not verified) -- 03.03.2006

the extender looks like the quintessential mis-engineered product. An add-on to top all add-ons.

GottaGoGirl (2616) -- 03.17.2006

Good story, Stew B.!

A couple years ago at a an Angels Baseball publicity event (cotton candy and batting cages in the Big A parking lot), my daughter walked up with a little stuffed bear.

I asked, "How did you win a bear?" She said, "I didn't. The people at the toilet paper booth are giving them away to kids."

Yes, Charmin was at the Angels' event, giving away shitty bears.

The Dumpster (2505) -- 03.17.2006

Hot dogs are in packs of 8; buns in packs of 12. Buy 3 packs of hot dogs, and 2 packs of buns, and not only will you come out even, but you will probably have one hell of a good story for PR!
