Is There A Toilet Paper Shortage

that I didn't hear about???

Ok..I wasn't going to do this but.. An Automated Toilet Paper Dispenser?

1st of all...5 sheets??? I am not one of those that winds the toilet paper around my hand till 1/4th of the roll is gone but geez...5 sheets, that's it?!?! I know it can be adjusted but it should be set to a default setting of at least 8 to 10 sheets, that is for a frontal wipe.

I have a few questions for Kimberly-Clark...

What about the people who need to wipe their ass and have taken a messy one. You all know the kind I am talking about, it has happened to all of us. The kind where you feel like you are going to be wiping forever! Do you hold your hand under the sensor to get more T.P or will you have to keep jerking your hand underneath the sensor?

What if the public restroom has cheap one-ply tissue? I might add that most do. Again, you know the kind I am talking about..the kind your finger pokes through. Of course you need more T.P

What about me..the person who DOES NOT want to sit on the seat because I think I might catch something. So I need to cover the seat and hover at the same time. I know what your answer is...the paper toilet seat covers. What if there are none or they are all out? I still need t be able to cover the seat with something.

  1. Love this post!
    My exact thougths DS.
    I posed this question about toilet paper at MyLot about Cheryl Crow only using "one square" of toilet paper.

    I mean, you have got to be kidding me, is she not a woman who has a montly cycle or what? I do not know about her, but my monthly bill is not clean...

    I know I use at least 5-10 squares when I use the potty (and this is not for the #1).

    GROSS!!

    LOL

    Thanks for this post DS!

  2. Great. First automatic flushing toilets, then automatic paper towel dispensers. Now an automatic toilet paper dispenser. I hope we can still open the door ourself. I don't want that to be automatic. :)

  3. i can see this coming when they had the sensor tap.
    i think main reason they set the limit of 5 sheets only is that they wan to save more TP. If you said: if you wanna have more, you need to hold your hand under sensor to get more. It's abit annoying, rite!

    Well, we knew it was just a matter of time. After all, Cheryl Crow called for TP rationing back in April during one of her save the earth concerts. It's actually really funny, and show that either a) she (and most other celebs) really are that out of touch with reality; or b) celebrities really don't actually perform the same body functions as the rest of us... Here is a her quote:

    "Although my ideas are in the earliest stages of development, they are, in my mind, worth investigating. One of my favorites is in the area of forest conservation which we heavily rely on for oxygen. I propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting. Now, I don’t want to rob any law-abiding American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required. When presenting this idea to my younger brother, who’s judgment I trust implicitly, he proposed taking it one step further. I believe his quote was, 'how bout just washing the one square out.'"

  6. I am so totally one of those people who wraps the TP around the hand several times, if only to create an impenetrable barrier between me and the ... uh, stuff. Followed by a good hand scrubbing. Interspersed with other neatnick things you don't need to know about. Five sheets!? I need more than that to blow my nose.
