Choice
Two rolls of toilet paper in the hotel room is kind of standard...but your choice of plain or quilted? That's a little too posh...
Some favorite Things to look at SET
20080322 Update: This is one of my most popular photographs. It's been on Explore off and on, almost since it was first uploaded. I have no idea why it is so popular. Do you know?

There should be 4 rolls -- plain vs quilted and front access vs back.

2 rolls are better than 1!

What about the .5 PLY stuff they have at the rest area.
Not that I take dumps at the rest area.

Looks like a His/Her set. BUT... in an emergency, who cares?

I don't know if I'd be more worried that there is a selection of toilet paper, but more so the fact that they have stickers holding the end in place.. now THAT is a little posh.. haha

Yes. Too classy for me.
Of course my wife thought I had gone around the bend when she saw me grab the camera and head for the toilet...

Hey thanks much for the recognition. Odd what sticks.
I had a photo debut at number one once then disappeared altogether. I did a minor rant about that.

Thanks for sharing. Thinking of using it as illustration for message in a church service.

By my guest. Oddly, this is one of my most popular photographs. It has been viewed over 2,000 times and has been on and off Explore several times. After nearly three years, it is still one of the top ten on this stream.

break those seals and an alarm goes off in the foyer and a massive cinema screen drops down.........................

Hehe! That is a funny scenario! Sort of like the scene in M*A*S*H (the movie) where the entire tent goes up when Hot Lips goes to take a shower.
The twin toilet paper shot is still my second most viewed photo with 2,232 views. It comes up in Google and Yahoo Image searches with keywords like "choice" and "toilet humor".
This one:

is still first place with 3,850 views. I still have no idea why.
Back in the early days of Flickr, it was common to have hundreds of views per day on a photo. Now, when there are millions of members and Carl-Sagan quantities of "photographs" from camera-phones, that doesn't happen so much.
blairdashpb (49 months ago | reply)
ah, but quality still beats all.
anyjazz65 (49 months ago | reply)
To thee and me and a chosen few.
I have seen some pretty strange photo streams over the past three years. I saw one that was more than 60K scans of magazine pages, not even old ones. There seems a trend of the free, max-200 quantity, Flickr streams, all self-shot overhead "photographs" of the same teen-girl in gosh, sometimes as many as three different outfits.
I do enjoy sitting watching page after page as fast as I can turn them, of the “incoming” on the explorer page. It shows that there are between 2 and 5 thousand pictures being uploaded per minute.
Inspiring. (Yes, that's sarcasm.)
blairdashpb (49 months ago | reply)
really? shall we start an oldie page?! heheheh
i can change my clothes as fast as the next woman(many outfits), and you can dress in the dark (that's just heresay mind you).!

I think what made this picture famous is choices, which everyone have experience on it. That's why I also love to add it in my blog - Stories of Picture (with a backlink to you of course)
anyjazz65 (44 months ago | reply)
I think you are right. I have followed the links back from the "Stats" on this and it is used often in news items and blogs on subjects involving "choice."
