Every toilet paper related thread ever:
-
Jokes about paper quality
-
Americans describing their upgrade to a bidet like its the second enlightenment
-
Europeans feeling superior that they’ve been using bidets for a couple hundred years
-
The one random Asian trying to figure out where did humanity regress and perma downgrade from water to ass scratch material in the western world
-
No explanation as to how water users seems to magically dry themselves without tp, heat or air, yet watching a new user come out looking like it rained in the bathroom
And on rare occasions:
- Westerners describing low pressure water cleaning with your hand like it will give you ebola, despite it being objectively more sanitary than toilet paper, and despite the fact that’s how bidets used to work
Srsly tho how do they dry.

1 Bidet = paper free for 2 to three years.
When I spray paint watercolor, I don’t just wipe my air brush. I wash it over and over in water until all paint is gone.
Although, no one washes canons between canon shots. They wipe the insides with an oily rag. So sure, there are things you wipe off with a dirty rag. So go ahead, keep wiping.
Why not by weight?
All this effort to communicate the idea of bigger or smaller rolls instead of just giving us the total surface area. But then, this isn’t about informing the consumer it’s about making it seem bigger. If they just gave us a total measurement in sq ft that would make it too easy to compare prices.
It’s like guys measuring their dick, they aren’t terribly concerned with the validity of the measurement as long as the result sounds good.
yknow what’s great? unit pricing laws
tldr: in australia businesses must display “unit price” on labels: price per 100g, per 100ml, per sheet, etc for every product so that packages are comparable
The thing with toilet rolls though, is they show price per roll, but the rolls themselves have different amounts of sheets. So you gotta do the extra math.
Unless in your country they show price per sheet? Which I would assume would be below one cent.
Australia displays price per 100 sheets.
Example:
Toilet paper making is an ART! No other industry manages to create a half-ply so transparent that you can read your newspaper through it, while still delivering the tactile experience of an 80 grid industrial sandpaper.
Brother, just spend the few extra bucks and buy name brand, the extra money ain’t gonna kill ya. Meanwhile, the TP you seem to buy now might have you bleeding to death from your ass.
That’s not my toilet paper, but one I recently had to endure on a non-private toilet. I was just amazed that they can actually produce such a paper. I’m quite attached to my ass and it’s wellbeing, so sure I buy the better stuff for me and my family.
Wait till you hear about women’s clothing sizes.
The one that lists sheets is at least using a verifiable metric. It’s better than the “right rolls of unspecified size are more than 39 different rolls of unspecified size”.
Still silly because no one knows how many sheets they use before changing the roll, but at least it’s reasonable silly.
Isn’t it the same problem tho, since they can make the sheets smaller and say there’s more without actually offering a longer roll?
We need legally defined toilet paper roll standards.
I wonder if buying dietary fiber is ACTUALLY worth the money saved in TP.
Buying cheap iron supplements costs less. The constipation will make everything as hard as, well passing iron.
Awful.
…Well done.
I switched to Bamboo toilet paper. Renewable, saves old growth trees, and when bought in bulk online is as cheap as Walmart.
Almost all paper comes from byproducts if the lumber industry or recycled. Its the processes of papermaking that have huge impacts to the environment.
I’d bet 72 sheets of toilet paper that these calculations were made by the AI in Excel
