Toilet humour is popular among a wide range of ages, but is especially popular with children and teenagers, for whom cultural taboos related to acknowledgement of waste excretion still have a degree of novelty. The humour comes from the rejection of such taboos, and is a part of modern culture. Examples can also be found in earlier literature, including ''The Canterbury Tales'' by Geoffrey Chaucer.

Ronald "Ron" White (born December 18, 1956) is an American stand up comedian who has had two Grammy Award-nominations, and is RIAA certified 10x Platinum for CD and DVD sales of over 10 million units. He is a charter member of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour and authored the book ''I Had the Right to Remain Silent But I Didn't Have the Ability'' (Dutton 2006, ISBN 978-0525949619), which appeared on the ''New York Times'' best seller list. White is well-known for his famous punchline, "...You can't fix stupid."
White is best known for smoking cigars and drinking Scotch as part of his act. He stated during his ''You Can't Fix Stupid'' show, "Somebody asked what I was drinking. If the company that made the stuff I was drinking was paying me, I'd have it in their bottle and not mine. But it's the kind of scotch that people drink that are going to die penniless. It's good though!" In 2009 Comedy Central released Ron's stand up DVD Behavioral Problems.
Currently, Ron White has partnered with producer Michael Blakey to form Organica Music Group (distributed by Universal Music Group), a label that will promote both emerging and established musicians and comedians. He will be releasing all his future DVDs and CDs through Organica Music Group.
He has appeared on the following compilation albums:
