Times are hard. However, they aren’t THIS hard.
I remember a dude told me a joke a few years ago about how to save TP. He said one way to save toilet paper was to take one sheet of TP and rip at the perforated lines. Then, you take it and fold it in diagonally. From that point, you tear out a snibbet of the bottom.
When you open it up, it should have a hole in which you insert your index finger. From there, the guy said you could go ahead and wipe your bottom. You would then take the TP and wipe the contents from that index fingernail, etc.
Well, a local family is getting some run by their vow to avoid toilet paper. They’re using cloth diapers to wipe themselves. They claim they’ve saved over $40 a month to make this switch. My question is this, how much more in detergent/washer/dryer energy have they increased with this move?
Don’t answer that.

What happened to just using newspaper. I read many-o-news (mostly from the years past) sitting on the toilet. Also who the hell spends so much money on the toilet paper in the first place, they probably have some big-ass needs.

Nice write up. Hell of a promo for the story and such nasty detail that I just washed my hands for no reason.
Thank you.

Wow. $40 a month for toilette paper would cover the hole state of Alaska.
