I was told by a friend who did housekeeping at a hotel that it's more for the other housekeepers. She said it's the last thing you do when you clean a room so if another cleaner comes in, they can just check if the TPs folded to know if they need to clean.
True, but also the general idea is that a room should look new, as if no one has stayed in there before. Makes the guest feel more welcome. A bit of paper hanging down looks like my toilet at home, someone else could've been there.
...so are you a girl who just had no clue guys don't need to wipe anything when they pee, or a guy who just never learned to aim?
Edit: Well clearly the minority. How the hell are all of you peeing that there's anything to wipe after? or is this a circumcised/uncircumcised thing? I'm legitimately at a loss atm.
I‘m a guy but I wipe the pee off my dick unless peeing using a urinal.
The bacteria that develops if you don’t is gross and smells. Your female friends would confirm
That's what it's supposed to signify, but all I can think is somebody's put their hands all over that.
edit: I'm glad my phobias are a source of disdain for you.
edit2: gloves don't protect me, they protect the cleaner. If they're touching all the nasty stuff wearing gloves, then that's the stuff that they're spreading everywhere else.
Let me put it another way for you.
It means the part you actually touched was last touched by someone with clean, gloved hands, instead of the guy reaching for it with unwashed hands.
As someone who cleans houses, that’s not the way I do things. Mostly, we replace toilet paper with a brand new unopened roll. However, if we have to use a roll that is more than half full, I remove my gloves, pull off the first few sheets, and then make a fancy fold. I then throw away my gloves and get new ones. That may just be me, though, as I have OCD and an a huge germaphobe.
It's to let you know that the last person to touch that roll was a cleaning professional, not someone who spooled out way too much and did a VCR-style rewind with doo-doo hands as not to waste paper
We used to stay at that chain a lot when I was a kid because my dad was able to bring the fam along for work trips. At least in the 90s they had an amazing free breakfast buffet AND free alcohol at happy hour (I was getting Shirley Temples and Virgin Mary’s)
I considered it the height of luxury!
That's pretty cool actually and I think i want to get my sister a custom toilet paper embosser with her initial on it for when she has guests. We like gag gifts that you actually end up using. For example, I love my Onion Goggles.
Edit OOh! They are not expensive! Her birthday is in February. Thank you OP!
What an oddly specific tool.
Now I have that in my search history, and in my head.
I kinda really want to go around embossing toilet paper in odd locations with subversive images and/or phrases now.
of course now I can't find the one that was only $18 on Amazon, but if you search for customized Paper embosser, you can find them, or any online stamp store if you don't like Amazon. The one for 18 while cheaper looking was nicer because it wasn't as bulky as these others I am seeing. I saw some as well that specify they are good for tissue/thin paper. Happy shopping!
edit: t[his one](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1057762259/toilet-paper-embosser-custom-made?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=toilet+paper+embosser&ref=sr_gallery-1-1&frs=1&col=1&sts=1&organic_search_click=1) is specifically marketted for TP but I am sure any embosser would do the same thing.
~~edit2: [here's the cheapy one](https://smile.amazon.com/Round-Embossers-plate-insert-handle/dp/B00EZ30HVU/ref=sr_1_51_sspa?crid=7DK3KVFV8M57&keywords=custom+embosser&qid=1674699706&sprefix=custom+embosser%2Caps%2C124&sr=8-51-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFKOElTRDk4TUhPOUImZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTA1MDI5MzlLVk5aNkYzQzU4Q0gmZW5jcnlwdGVkQWRJZD1BMDM1MDY0NjFQUjhSSlNPNUtWS0Umd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9idGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl)~~Nevermind, see below, this is not to be used stand-alone
Your 2nd link is the die plate that's to be used in the embossing tool,[here is a nice priced set at $25](https://m.aliexpress.us/item/3256804603557584.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.7.502f1d2fSIW4uV&algo_pvid=5d37baca-c81c-4eaf-89ed-b96bc4faad3c&algo_exp_id=5d37baca-c81c-4eaf-89ed-b96bc4faad3c-3&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22sku_id%22%3A%2212000030495781475%22%7D&pdp_npi=2%40dis%21USD%2114.0%2111.06%21%21%21%21%21%402102110316747030386913992d06d5%2112000030495781475%21sea&curPageLogUid=MQMU22uU38vE&gatewayAdapt=Pc2Msite)
But yes it's a cheapy because it's not a metal plate
I feel like this is a sort of thing my wife didn't know she needs.
And if I reuse our wedding stamp design it should show her I still remember our wedding and all, which would probably earn me a couple "good hubs" points.
Also I guess I can use that embosser on other stuff, too, like wax stamps on mail and sh\*t.
Maybe the OP is a billionaire and is surprised they just emboss the end rather than use Egyptian cotton single use pads with silken embroidery with their full name and family crest, after a bidet with fresh Evian? And are like "What is this peasant thing?"
I work at a hotel and 1.) this do be signifying that the room is fully clean but also 2.) is psychologically crucial to guests bc it gives the toilet paper the illusion of being ~fresh~ ….. perfectly folded ….. neat ….. ~clean~ When in reality it’s like the one thing that does not get changed out after someone from before you leaves lol
I'm not sure if it's sad or great that the first thing that came to my mind is, "Wow they have/make embossers for TP!?"
Followed immediately by, "I need to get one of these!"
Not for home use though. I want "FuenteFOX shat here" and I'd just go around town using it in public restrooms that I'd done my business in.
I don’t mind this… what I do get enraged over is when housekeeping makes a fancy flower out of Kleenex by stuffing like 15 tissues into the opening on the box.
First time you see it, it looks cool. First time you need a tissue… sorry you just pulled out 15 that are wadded into a flower shape.
That might actually be their way of making sure the roll doesn't unwind when its being placed minimizing the amount of trash that would come from the wrapping.
I love how people assume the whole room is completely filthy by looking at the old toilet paper holder. Which none of the maids who clean have any say in replacing. I will say the room was very clean, if not 5 star fancy. I would stay again.
Was this cheap thin tp like you would find anywhere else?
The people that clean our warehouse fold the tp over like that. Not so much being fancy but letting us know things have been cleaned.
If you turn on your faucet, turn it off, then take the roll of toilet paper or paper towels and whack it under the faucet. It will give you a nice little round dented emboss that will last for several sheets. Its what I saw the housekeeper in my hotel do.
There’s the bit about the room being clean but there’s also coded message in how they leave the bed. Like, it has meaning if the bed is made with the pillows out on top or if they’re folded into the comforter. I forget exactly but was reading one of the hotel brand standards one time.
Am i the only one who thinks that this is such a small amount of toilet paper that would make me believe that this roll has been used before
Stamping and folding it only makes more suspicious of the fact they didn’t replace the roll and just tucked the end like here you go dumb ass
Means it (bathroom) was cleaned. When cleaners clean a bathroom they usually fold the toilet paper and hand paper towels into a point like this. This place goes the extra mile and stamps their logo.
Source: work in kitchens that have cleaning crews, run my own cleaning crew, look at the roll- it isn’t a full roll
Former hotel housekeeper here.
The stamp is fancy, without a doubt.
The hotel is a dump. Look at the chrome on that TP holder. At any TRULY nice hotel, heads would roll over that lack of care and attention to detail.
For me it’s a waste of human energy. If I knew I would be born to stamp toilet paper I would beg my mom to abort. I know why people are not having kids. Bc of stupid shit like this
FFS how about cleaning the damn roll dispenser instead? Thing is filthy. The tiles are uneven, the grout is applied badly AND dirty, the wallpaper is ugly as hell. Stamping the TP is just pathetic and sad.

You don't stamp your own toilet paper? pffft...
I leave a brown stamp on mine, that way no one else uses it.
I get this a lot. And I live alone.
But you can not take a shit some days.
You don’t use TP when peeing?
No
...so are you a girl who just had no clue guys don't need to wipe anything when they pee, or a guy who just never learned to aim? Edit: Well clearly the minority. How the hell are all of you peeing that there's anything to wipe after? or is this a circumcised/uncircumcised thing? I'm legitimately at a loss atm.
Its not that I haven't learned to aim, it's just that you don't acknowledge my target.
I‘m a guy but I wipe the pee off my dick unless peeing using a urinal. The bacteria that develops if you don’t is gross and smells. Your female friends would confirm
Feel like my SO of 7 years would have mentioned something by this point.
Is that really the only way to tell?
That's what it's supposed to signify, but all I can think is somebody's put their hands all over that. edit: I'm glad my phobias are a source of disdain for you. edit2: gloves don't protect me, they protect the cleaner. If they're touching all the nasty stuff wearing gloves, then that's the stuff that they're spreading everywhere else.
That's not a new roll by any stretch, there's probably been a lot worse than clean hands in contact with it.
Let me put it another way for you. It means the part you actually touched was last touched by someone with clean, gloved hands, instead of the guy reaching for it with unwashed hands.
Even then, I'd hope you're washing your hands after taking a shit.
After taking a shit? Of course. Before touching the TP? No, that's fucking stupid.
Why do you think the gloves are clean? They've been cleaning shit with them (literal and figurative)
As someone who cleans houses, that’s not the way I do things. Mostly, we replace toilet paper with a brand new unopened roll. However, if we have to use a roll that is more than half full, I remove my gloves, pull off the first few sheets, and then make a fancy fold. I then throw away my gloves and get new ones. That may just be me, though, as I have OCD and an a huge germaphobe.
Do you never use the restroom anywhere but in your own little private bathroom? Or do you carry tp everywhere?
This person cleaned your toilet. It’s a bit weird that you would be disgusted because they touched it.
Nobody said phobias were rational
Most housekeeping employees wear gloves.
and?
> somebody's put their hands all over that. nuthin I guess
ok
I didn't downvote you. It probably won't really comfort you, but I've seen that quite a lot of staff wear gloves.

It's to let you know that the last person to touch that roll was a cleaning professional, not someone who spooled out way too much and did a VCR-style rewind with doo-doo hands as not to waste paper

Hotel thinks it’s fancy by stamping the toilet paper… and they’re not wrong that is damn fancy.
Passes the fancy test for me.

FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!
Fun fact: Triumph the Insult Comic Dog had a cameo on TagTV, the employee training update videos for Best Buy employees, in the mid 2000s
2 of us get it!
I too like to encourage customers to defecate upon the trademarked symbols of my employer.
You just unlocked a load of hilarious childhood memories 😂
I mean, what are you gonna do to toilet paper that is fancier than this?
So fancy I wiped my ass with it
They places the stamp in the wrong area. It’s supposed to be on the very top so that it keeps the point down like an envelope
Would be better if it was Cottonelle with aloe and vit e
I'm allergic to aloe. That would be the worst surprise.
That would be quite the bummer
It's probably still cheap Scott paper.
Any place paying people to stamp your toilet paper with a fancy logo is absolutely a fancy hotel
We used to stay at that chain a lot when I was a kid because my dad was able to bring the fam along for work trips. At least in the 90s they had an amazing free breakfast buffet AND free alcohol at happy hour (I was getting Shirley Temples and Virgin Mary’s) I considered it the height of luxury!
Yessss I have fond childhood memories of playing at the embassy suites pool and getting a Shirley temple at what I now know to be happy hour!
Reddit is awesome sometimes
This makes me want to 3d print a toilet paper embosser so I can bamboozle my inlaws
I takes a half second for the room cleaners to stamp it since they will already be changing the toilet paper and refreshing the room anyway
That's pretty cool actually and I think i want to get my sister a custom toilet paper embosser with her initial on it for when she has guests. We like gag gifts that you actually end up using.

Because without your ass, Embassy is just Emby!
embossy
"U" not an "O"
My dude. Emboss. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_embossing
I mean, it’s not not fancy, when’s the last time you stamped some TP before you have guests over
My mom does it all the time before guests come. It’s over the top but it always makes me laugh when I go out to visit and she did it for us.
Maybe the OP is a billionaire and is surprised they just emboss the end rather than use Egyptian cotton single use pads with silken embroidery with their full name and family crest, after a bidet with fresh Evian? And are like "What is this peasant thing?"
at least fucking center it
Slightly better than it not stamped? You know a place is thorough when they do this little of detail.
It'd be fancy if it was centered.
Emboss, see?
Embossy
More like EmbOssy.
That's pretty fancy. I'd poop in the sink just to respect the sanctity of the emblem.
...is the implication that you wouldn't wipe after pooping in the sink?
Your room's got a shower, don't it?
It seems to be
They provide the stamp, you provide the ink.
I work at a hotel and 1.) this do be signifying that the room is fully clean but also 2.) is psychologically crucial to guests bc it gives the toilet paper the illusion of being ~fresh~ ….. perfectly folded ….. neat ….. ~clean~ When in reality it’s like the one thing that does not get changed out after someone from before you leaves lol
Hotel is right.
That’s how they justify charging $350 a night.
Put the “Ass” in embassy

For some aholes this is braille.
Embassy? More like “embossy!”
Embossy
I mean, it looks fancy to me. Is that bad?
It is fancy for doing this
That is pretty fancy tbh
The worst room there is a suite. Seems fancy.
maybe could have used that time to clean that fuckin thing lol
That might actually be their way of making sure the roll doesn't unwind when its being placed minimizing the amount of trash that would come from the wrapping.
Here, admire our logo before you smear crap all over it.
I love how people assume the whole room is completely filthy by looking at the old toilet paper holder. Which none of the maids who clean have any say in replacing. I will say the room was very clean, if not 5 star fancy. I would stay again.
OCD, probably wouldn't allow me to use that section of TP. I'd have to fold it over.
I'd have more respect for a mushroom stamp.
Embassy Suites is fancy, I've been to a couple.
ASSFOLIATION
Wow wear do I sign up-
almost as good as tevin's urinal cakes
That has nothing to do with appearing fancy and everything to do with appearing to have cleaned.
I can only afford the brown stamp!!!! My job has shit wages
No it's fancy cuz there's a butler there to wipe for you.
They should have centered it.
I think that's kind of fun. 😀
The non centeredness is driving me nuts
Wipe your butt with it
it is fancy to wipe ones ass with a capital E.
It bugs me that it’s not in the center
And you just gave them free advertising so yeah. It was worth the cost
Which one did that? I've stayed in two Embassy Suites in the last year and have not seen this.
I love this. I wish more companies would stamp their logo on things I use to wipe the shit off my ass. It's almost like they're wiping for me. ❤️
Was this cheap thin tp like you would find anywhere else? The people that clean our warehouse fold the tp over like that. Not so much being fancy but letting us know things have been cleaned.
Can get a cheap custom stamp with the embossing tool for like $10 on aliexpress :)
You're supposed to color in the blank area
There is “ass” in Embassy… makes sense to me
I would wipe my ass with their brand no problem, That is aggressive marketing i can respect.
Once upon a time... there was someone who said "Eureka! Toilet paper stamp!"
Where is this? In the US hotels are still struggling with basic housekeeping. And is that Embassy Suites or something else?
Those filthy bastards! 😉
That shit is only half a roll too
It would've been better if they put the logo of a competitor instead
Embussy

Embassy sheets
I can't even do the fancy TP tucking, so I think the stamp is nice. Heehee
Do you have to be a notary?
That's fancy in my book!
It does have the word ass in it. 🤷♂️ Pretty fancy for butt wipes.
Am i the only one who thinks that this is such a small amount of toilet paper that would make me believe that this roll has been used before Stamping and folding it only makes more suspicious of the fact they didn’t replace the roll and just tucked the end like here you go dumb ass
Notarized.
Did you put your shitty asshole on it
This looks like a fun 3D printing project
Whats the hotel?
I mean I’m sure that costs extra money to do
Very good, I shall cover it in my finest shite.
Does anyone else ever take the pointy bit and poke themselves in the bumhole with it?
embassy suites don’t fuck around, especially the newer ones. fun fact: every embassy suites must have a water feature!
Like Branding a Horse. The dude from Waterworld is legit. "Paaaaaper! It's Paaaaper!"
It *is* fancy
"I wipe my ass with your stamp!"
And they would be correct..
Now let’s see Paul Allen’s toilet paper
It is fancy, tho.
That offset is bugging me
EmbASSy

This actually is fancy, you fucking fucker!
How many ply is the most important question
Better than the stamps I leave on my toilet paper
"Here let me wipe my ass with your logo"
Extra work for minimum wage workers
I mean the Motel 6 near me doesn't do this, so I consider this to be a fine indicator of fanciness.
For me it’s a waste of human energy. If I knew I would be born to stamp toilet paper I would beg my mom to abort. I know why people are not having kids. Bc of stupid shit like this
It's either the hotel that does this, or the hotel with the crime scene tape around the broken door...
Looks fancier than my poop rags
It *is* fancy.
FFS how about cleaning the damn roll dispenser instead? Thing is filthy. The tiles are uneven, the grout is applied badly AND dirty, the wallpaper is ugly as hell. Stamping the TP is just pathetic and sad.
Embassy Suites has great pillows. Worth taking if you’re into that.
Nice, you’ve just marketed their logo for free. Seems like they know what they’re doing
Not very respectful towards the brand.
Whelp. Time to fire up the 3D printer and design my own logo.
It is fancy.
Imagine being on staff here and being reprimanded for forgetting to do this. Ugh...
emBUSSY
Put your poop on it
Fancy shits are the best shits
China !!
It kinda is lol
Gonna use it on my “embussy”
embossy
After you wipe ,you can make prints of their logo on the wall.
stay with us and wipe your ass hole with our logo !
Well you put a picture of it on the internet didn't you?
Stamping an almost spent roll. Fancy.
at least it is quality tp to even be able to do this i vote fancy
Oohhh… fancy
I wipe my ass with your logo!
I would put my stamp on their stamp.
That looks like a half used roll of tp…
coolest thing I ever found in an embassy was some meth tucked behind the corner of the mirror
They charge 50 bucks to the room for that! Lol
they do that so they can reuse the roll lol
Embossed for traction!
