"International Toilet Day" huh? Well if that ain't enough to give you the shits! :)
But on my favourite topic - I saw a report on TV the other day that was saying that Germans are predominantly folders, whereas Americans are predominantly scrunchers. Because of this, the Germans find the American thin and baking-paper like toilet paper too easy to break through (if you get my drift...), whereas the Americans find that the German multi-layer softer paper isn't rigid enough for the folds to be able to grab anything...
God, I nearly spewed writing that...sorry. :)
PS: Folders are people who fold the paper into many layers, and then use sheer finger pressure to remove the .... Scrunchers scrunch the paper into a ball, using the edges and the folds to, I guess, kinda scrape it off.
Keep all that in mind next time you eat a Picnic bar... :)

Folders: Intelligent, rational human beings improving society daily simply with the addition of their presence.
Scrunchers: Weird, misunderstood folks who don't mind playing in the mud, are typically vegans and have a penchant for alternative medicine. Not-so-distant relatives of the Carny people.

All's I'm trying to say is that scrunching just seems odd. :D
and that vegans are too apparently
don't forgot one half of the brushandbel is a vegetarian - not disciplined enough to be vegan, but in awe of those who are :)
hi from an internet cafe in rural Philipinnes - a country that I imagine has no term for vegan, vegetarian is already beyond comprehension
after reading too much about the finshing indistry's damage of marine environment and watching happy feet i decided i nolonger eat fish - except here where it is inconceivable not to have soemthing meatish in their cooking (plus which they have no protein substitutes so i need something)

Heheheh...playing in the mud...arse mud... :)
who would have thunk that Germans would tend to be neat, precise, control-freaks and Americans tend to be chaotic, 'if-it-works' types,...
Thats blown all my stereotypes out the water
I would like to see some stats relating intelligence (as well as we can measure it with IQ tests etc) with the fold/scrunch approach. I think there will be a major correlation.
I completely agree with Matty on this one, scrunchers are weird, backwards folk that evolution will surely pick off as time goes by.
I didn't even know there was such a technique until an ad on Aussie TV which showed a stereotypical "folder", (neat, precise) growing up in a house full of scrunchers (rough, uneducated yobs).
