I had that same joke played on me-what's the proper response?

17 yr old girl.
I was just reading in your archives about the girl who had the guy put the sticker pic of his face on her toilet paper as a practical joke, and that hit home for me, because I had a guy play the same joke on me.
I didn't get mad or anything, as a matter of fact, I kinda thought it was funny in a weird way, but one thing made me really uncomfortable about that, and I wanted to know your opinion about it-what's the proper way to respond to that joke, in terms of what you do with the picture? I sat there and thought and thought about that...part of me thought that since he chose to stick the sticker pic on toilet paper then I should honor his choice and use it, plus that might teach him a lesson...but then I thought that's really mean, and plus it might hurt. But then I thought, obviously I don't want to keep it since it's toilet paper, and then I thought should I trash it or flush it? Both ways seemed to have definite advantages.
Also, I felt really uncomfortable about seeing him after I came out of the bathroom...I mean, if I did end up using it, should I tell him? If I tell him, what's the nicest way to break the news to him? What if he asks for the picture back or something?
