Sure, wives usually buy the tissues, but how macho does it look when you have a flowery tissue box in your tool shop? Or in your hunting cabin? Let's face it: Shotguns and pink flowers don't mix. But what kind of tissue box would be appropriate for a guy? How about camo? Olive Drab? Or some kind
of plain color that isn't a pastel? It wouldn't be too much trouble to produce, and I'm sure guys would prefer these over the 'pretty' tissue boxes.
Looks manly enough for me

Should the tissues inside the box be made of sandpaper, too? |
|
| |
How about these? They're white, but there are manly blue ones available in the same sort of packaging. (link) |
|
| |
For the mechanics shop : porn tissues to match the calendar. |
|
| |
they should look like oily rags. |
|
| |
Camoflage patterned tissues -
although it would be hard to tell
whether one had been used |
|
| |
[ghillie]. Do you feel threatened by your feminine side? Are you not comfortable with your personal sexuality? Sounds like you're trying to prove something. |
|
| |
(P.S. Y'know, YOU could always go and buy the tissues and get a plain box) |
|
| |
[squeak] Would if I could, but I'm not married, and I can't find any plain boxes. |
|
| |
If you're not married, whose wife is buying your tissues? |
|
| |
(aside: men who say "the wife" should have their left kneecap busted.) |
|
| |
*gulp* [changed 'the wife' to 'wives']
Um, this was pretty much to relate to other people, since I'm not married. And I said that I can't find any plain tissue boxes. |
|
| |
lets get this straight: is it the tissues or the box you want masculinised? or both? |
|
| |
Just the boxes. Plain, white tissues. |
|
| |
shame, removing my croissant :) |
|
| |
Why, do you want novelty tissues? Would you rather have tissues with people's faces on it? Imagine expelling your snot all over Bill Gate's face... |
|
| |
I wanted my oily rag lookalikes <disappointed>or hippo's camouflage tissues. gawd we don't come up with these ideas for fun you know. we woik at it. |
|
| |
My original idea was tissues that weren't feminine. So if they could make macho tissues and tissue boxes, that would be great.
(P.S. Those ideas are cool, but they've been baked by me and my dad, both hunting and in the garage.) |
|
| |
you *baked* oily rag tissues or oily rags? |
|
| |
Not me, my dad. He uses them as rags and tissues. At the same time. |
|
| |
thats what I thought. thats why paper tissues that *look* like oily rags is such an appealing visual to me (well, I say appealing - appeals to my sense of humour that is ) |
|
| |
How about a tissue box that looks like an old tire. |
|
| |
Hee! hee! [suddenly understands Rods' joke] |
|
| |
oh.....yes..... good show, Rods. (Shame on me, I was just there 2 months ago). |
|
| |
Um, I don't get it. What's he talking about? |
|
| |
Say the title of the idea out loud. |
|
| |
Send in a tissue sample for tests and we can then tell you if it's macho or picho. |
|
| |
I've seen Kleenex brand facial tissues with hunting motifs. For example, a pheasant flying away and a hunter with dog in foreground. I don't think the tissues were bright white. That would seem like a bad idea if you were hunting white tail deer. |
|
| |
Puffs has a box with images of animal fur. They call the design "skins"
http://www.puffs.com/products/images/family/d_family_skins.gif |
|
| |
The pastel flowers don't match my decor, but neither would hunting patterns. I think I need something a little more gender-neutral. |
|
| |
How about putting them in a uncoated beige box? Color your own design on 'em. |
|
| |
But then you'd have those ridiculous macho men that would just have to customize the thing. I can just see it, guys making high-performance tissue boxes with chrome and neon... -shudders- |
|
| |
At least there should be an aisle at Home Depot where you can buy metal planks, vulcanized rubber tubing, and plywood blocks to put around your store-bought tissue box. |
|
| |
I'm envisioning a do-it-yourself TV show also, dedicated to this idea. |
|
| |
Beige is so...beige! Let's get's some fabulous primary colors in the house! |
|
| |
Hmm...OK, maybe what I'm looking for is Tissue Boxes for Gay Men with Taste. |
|
| |
Do real Macho Men even use tissues? |
|
| |
No. If you're at your hunting cabin, you just give it a good
farmer blow, stepping outside is at your discretion. I
however, admittedly not wearing the pants in the house,
enjoy my wife's purchase of the tissue with the lotion, as
my hay-fever will often necessitate more than 20 blows an
hour, which really rubs the membranes raw pretty quickly.
But outside the house, I always use the Fresno-hanky, to
show my manliness. |
|
| |
[oxen crossing], maybe it's *not* hayfever... |
|
| |
May I suggest you see someone about having your Chi
"reversed"? I think you'll be most satisfied. |
|
| |
Yup, it's hay fever, no question about it. Allergic to 45 of
the 60 allergens tested for. Worst are juniper and
redwood, but cockroaches are on the list as well. Good
thing I don't breathe too many cockroaches. But maybe I
do need my Chi checked. Can't be too careful. |
|
| |
Maybe it's all in the FLOW of your Chi. |
|
| |
Anyway, just think about it. |
|
| |
is a backward chi, an itch? |
