I grew up on a farm.

Inevitably,
someone at the office borrows my tape and brings it back like it wasn't before. That's when I frustrate myself trying to make the end behave.
Luckily, for me the tp thing doesn't happen too often.

Well, Sir Strat,
Sorry you were traumatized by bad TP growing up. That sucks.

The thing is, Young Miss, that you can't skimp
on something as important as toilet paper. I know, because my family for years always had the one ply, glued shut to the roll, John Wayne paper, and I hated it.
We all know what John Wayne TP is -- rough, tough, and don't take shit off anyone...

Actually, Symph,
My biggest problem is not the foil, but the FRIGGIN' PLASTIC WRAP STUFF!! It never rips correctly! The jagged edged cutter strip never works right, but it sure can slice a finger without a problem!!

LMAO. Why? Because this happens to me at malls and shopping centers. Why? They stock the cheap TP that is, in fact, kept together with Super Glue. Bastards! Charmin Extra doesn't use Super Glue. Instead, they seal the role sort of like some people seal an envelope: by only licking the very center in order to hold the contents together.

Absolutely hilarious!!
Though I must admit I don't have this problem very often--maybe it's the brand of toilet paper I use. Funny you speak of there being a hidden toy or treasure embedded halfway through the roll. Maybe you have an idea there that toilet paper manufacturers might pay you a million dollars for!!! LOL
Why buy Cracker Jacks of Trix, when your kids will have just as much enjoyment out of a good ole roll of Cottenelle. hahaha
Very entertaining read.

I've shredded a few rolls in my day. Of course as women we experience it more than men since we have to use TP every time we potty! And living alone, I'm ALWAYS the one to "start" the roll. The only advantage to cheap generic TP is that it's easier to get into. (But that still doesn't make it worth it!)

Yep. Been there--especially in public restrooms. Those rolls seem to be glued even more than the stuff I use at home!
