Follies of the Mad Men #19
Those darn males! We've already seen that they need to be spritzed regularly with Poo-Pourri, and now we find out that they make three times as much mucus as women!

Not three times - nobody makes one ply tissues. One-and-a-half times as much, or 50% more. Can't anybody do elementary math anymore? I remember these; they were a good idea. They would have to change the name now though, we wouldn't want to offend anyone would we?

Kleenex still sells 'Kleenex for men' in Europe.

Hey, it's like those huge towels they make and call "Bath sheets". They could call them "snot tarps". Actually I wish we could still find these. I got kind of a big nose.

I always thought Kleenex was trying to sap our precious bodily fluids...

Man size? Who wants a five-inch Kleenex?
I particularly like the bit about them being "almost huge" as though there's a specified threshold for huge and the Kleenex just don't quite make it (but they're close!).

Steve, 1 1/2 times as much would be 150% not 50%. Sorry, but the answer to your question seems to be no, not a lot of people can do elementary math.

WRONG! 1 1/2 times AS MUCH is only 50% MORE THAN. MORE THAN is always 100% different from AS MUCH AS. Four times as much is only THREE TIMES MORE. MORE is only the increase, not the increase PLUS the original 100%!

i love how the package is decorated with a gun, a ship, and a train.

I just like the fact that despite being so specifically designed for males, the woman STILL wants to take it and use it herself . . . .
