Has anyone else noticed the quality of toilet paper is going down the crapper? I've noticed several brands are getting thinner and thinner, and consequently less effective. Half the time I feel like that bear in the commercial with toilet paper stuck to his butt. It's a sad time we live in when you can't enjoy your morning constitutional .

Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end, the faster it goes.

Oh, never mind. I thought you asked if I had noticed the quantity of toilet paper going down the crapper. I'm always on my family about that as it tends to keep me overly occupied with the plunger.

I've noticed cobs are thinner these days . And the sycamore trees are loosing there leaves too soon.

Sounds like it's time for this again:
How to Wipe Using One Sheet of Toilet Paper
Step One: Take a single sheet of single-ply toilet paper and fold it in half. (This is known as a "valley fold" in origami.) Then, fold in half again. Note: Men usually fold edge-to-edge, but ladies may prefer the more fashionable corner-to-corner technique. Step Two: Tear a small hole from the folded corner just large enough to put your finger through. Set the corner piece aside on a clean surface, then unfold the larger piece and slide it down over your finger so that it covers your thumb and knuckles.
Step Three: Using your finger only, wipe your buttocks thoroughly. Depending on your stool condition, you may need to shake your finger through the toilet bowl water occasionally, but be careful not to get the paper wet. Step Four: When finished, grasp the sheet of toilet paper firmly and pull up, cleaning and drying your finger in one smooth, even motion. Finally, use the smaller folded piece to clean underneath your fingernail.

What a conversation. Only on the Banjo Forum will you find a conversation like this.
But I have noticed that the paper is terrible, smaller rolls and the price has risen terribly.

I know and that is what makes BHO so great. We've all spoken to each other for what seems like years and you start to bond with everyone. I've learned so much from people on here about subjects I would be too embarrassed to discuss with some of my real family members.

Doug, I lurk about on a consistent basis but only post when something strikes, like a pounder and this thread you started. Both have a common denominator of sorts. The only missing equation regarding this thread, is the opportune time to pick some 5 and take advantage of the natural reverberation that exists in thoulst area designated, porcelain convenience.

It's related to giving a more elaborate answer than a simple "Yes" to a question.
If memory serves, that's part of a two-part joke. The other half goes "Is the bear Catholic?"

never having been to one of those countries whre they drive on the "other " side of the road...... perhaps some who live in one of those places(or folks who have visited) can tell me the real deal? is it true that the toilet paper is also wound on the core the wrong way too?

A QUARTER? Us really REALLY old people remember the poem with a DIME as the fee. One hundred and fifty percent increase in cost, in just the past few years.
MIGHT be cheaper, in the long run, to discontinue the use of paper, and carry a Portable Rinsing Machine.

A city boy was visiting his country friend. Later on he asked if he could use the facility. The country boy said "Sure", It's just out back. City boy went out back and saw a small building. He was fairly smart for a city boy so figured that was it. In a few minutes, however, he was back in the house asking where the paper was. Country boy said, We don,t use paper. We use corn cobs. City boy went out back and returned again in a few minutes and said, "there are two kinds there. Brown and White. Which do I use. Country boy said, "A couple of the brown ones will do the job just fine." City boy said, "Then, what are the white ones for."
Country boy said, "You use one of them to see if you need another brown one."

Gary Lee - Posted - 09/18/2009: 11:07:20
String crud could be attributed to a mid night scratching whilst thou is counting sheep and of course, a skipped morning shower which generally breaks free all lodged DNA.

I noticed this post a couple day ago & didn't even think about joining in. Then this morning I opened a new pack of angel soft & yes is in fact much thinner than the roll of the same thing I removed. I wouldn't blow my nose with it , unless I used twice as much, not to mention use as directed.

What's the difference between toilet paper, and sand paper?
Sand paper has at least ONE smooth side!

A few years ago my wife bought a roll of toilet paper that contained some type of lotion.. Man was it smoooth, but the problem was you couldnt tell when the job was finished and I went through the whole roll... We need to bring back the Sears Robuck catalog...Doug

Corn crop was good here in Missouri so I should be good for awhile,the cobs are nice and soft because of all the rain we had.
mike gregory - Posted - 09/18/2009: 19:10:09

Compared to which, an ONLINE catalog is USELESS.
Of course, for those of you who realize that using paper kills trees, there are these little plastic scoops that fit neatly in the pocket, and, when needed, slide snugly over the fingertips.
