CONTEST #17: Bottom-Scraping Advertising: The Winner

Posted 03.22.2005 by Dave (11538)
Walking out of his Midtown office a few weeks ago, PoopReporter Harry Pooter was handed a roll of toilet paper printed with promotions for the WE Network's Oscar Night Bathroom Break Party. While he didn't watch the show (or use the paper), it got him thinking: what if other companies used toilet paper as a promotional vehicle?

PoopReporters submitted over a hundred ideas (click here for the full entry list). Five finalists were chosen. 245 poopers made their voices heard. The results are below.

Thanks to Chris Rockwell, Cliff, Harry Pooter, Trevor, The Crapitalist and Jenny for helping pick the finalists.

Congratulations to Soggy, who, as a reward for his indisputable comic genius, will receive both a copy of The Journal of Ass Production AND the roll of WE promotional toilet paper that kicked off this whole thing. Soggy says:

Fellow Poopreporters,

I am genuinely honored to have won this contest. In the general pecking order of seniority at PoopReport, I would have to be considered an intern. Although I have only been visiting the site for a few months now, I believe all of you have always been my peers. It is we who laugh the loudest during poop humor in movies. It is we who giggle uncontrollably when witnessing a funny poop incident, like the faces dogs make when they are pinching a loaf. And it is we who have been telling funny poop stories since before PoopReport or the Internet even existed.

I have heard it said that the only constants in life are taxes and death. But taxes are only paid once a year, and death is a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. I assert that pooping is the greatest constant on earth. I know I make brownies at least twice a day. Pooping is the most universal and binding (pun intended) act known to man.

In closing, thank you to my fellow PoopReporters for the votes. Thank you to Dave for giving us this wonderful forum to discuss all of the intricacies of poop. And thank you to all who entered their great submissions to this contest and to the website in general. You all make my life more enjoyable. In short, thank you.


A PoopReport contest can be compared to the aftermath of a three-day bout with constipation. In the toilet lie a handful of impressive logs, each of which would be perfectly admirable in their own right. These poops, however, are dwarfed by that one immense grogan, twelve inches long, four inches around, bobbing proudly at water level, glistening in the attention it receives.

Let's hear from some of those lesser -- yet still quite impressive -- poops.

It is not without some degree of disappointment that I come before you at this bittersweet moment to acknowledge the obvious and concede victory to my compatriot in poop, Soggy, for submitting what the plopping public apparently prefers as its motto of choice for defining the abysmal state of bottom-scraping affairs in the world today.

It saddens me to ponder the probability that so many disenfranchised defecators are deprived of the fruits and fibers required to expel sufficiently softened feces, and must resort instead to power tools to assist the extrusion and post-plopping particulars of ass-crack clean-up. But if, in fact, it takes a chainsaw to get the job done, it may as well be the best chainsaw available (even if Poulan would've been a more phonetically subliminal reference to the task at hand).

So, as I bow my head in humility, and fade into the faceless masses of also-rans, let me just say that I appreciate each vote cast by those PoopReporters who supported me during our valiant effort to carry our copropolitical message that "every asshole deserves a decent wipe!"

Continue to Promote Fanny Values!

I was definitely surprised when I saw the "You're a Poop Finalist!" email, because my only really funny entry was that Progressive Auto Insurance one; and I saw many others that I personally thought merited a finalist status more than my own. This makes the second time I've ever been a finalist in any contests -- the first being the time I got second place in the PoopReport Sellout contest. Congrats to the others for having great entries!

Congratulations to Soggy on a well-earned win (oh, and thanks for the... interesting... visual)! Kudos also to Turd Hugegrunt for choosing the best of all possible products to advertise. Most of all, three cheers to the lot of you for making this such a hilarious contest! I loaf you guys from the heart of my bottom [ducks and runs].

I thought progressive was really funny.

Thanks, ty! It's always good to know that at the very least, I made it into the 20's.
