There is Origami on the Toilet.

Origami, the art of paper-folding. It’s a realy beautifull and fascinating activity. Also there are intersting but sometimes sad stories which are conected to Origami, like the one of Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. Or the fact that the folding technique of solar panels in satellites had been invented by an japanese Origami Master. But it wouldn’t be Japan if there is not a curious thing releated to that fascinating art, that makes you laugh. That thing is called Toilet Paper Origami. Yes! Toilet Paper Origami! They fold the head of the role so the next person can grab the paper more easyly and be entertained at the same time. Personaly I prefer a comedian standing next to me who is telling me jokes while passing me a paper, but that’s a matter of taste. So what kind of shapes do they fold with toilet paper? There are a lot of forms, from simple to extraordinary. The most complicated thing i have seen, which uses nerarly the half of the paperrole, is the phoenix you see in the picture. But my all time favorite is the Valentine Heart. The message behind it: Take my heart and wipe your ass.
