Yawn. I just wash with water. People are gross.

Why in the hell is it always toilet paper?

[–] mipadaitu 11 points 1 day ago

Cause it takes up a lot of space on store shelves. It's really obvious when there's a larger demand for them.

Idk, I think it makes more sense to buy soap.

Can't fix stupid

This is why you should keep all appliance User's manuals.

Get a bidet and you won't need as much toilet paper anymore.

I still use a bit after washing to ensure I got everything. My bidet does have a dry function but sometimes the wipe is for insurance. Definitely have more than enough TP for a while now though.

This is so stupid. Toilet paper lasts really long, so it makes sense to only stockpile it when it's on discount and you have dry room to store it. If you actually run out, you can use other paper as a substitute (tissues, bills, pages of that book you hate).

One roll lasts one person about a month. Maybe a bit less, if you use a lot for other purposes like cleaning things.

You're probably not a woman who uses paper for both sides.

men usually use it to dry the tip of their willie too, if that's what you mean. if we don't it can become smelly. but i use 3-ply or more, because it's usually cheaper and longer lasting than using 2-ply and folding it.

It takes one square, hell, a quarter square with good shakes and a urethra stroke for that. It's really not even an issue with daily showers. Us having a straw with a very exposed exit point is a much simpler device to dry than what the other half of the world is dealing with

Honestly some use way more than a roll a month.

Like you, I've never understood TP panic vying. I have a years stock too

I use high thread count Egyptian cotton toilet paper, so it’s no joke.

Is it organic and grass fed, tho?
