Toiletpaper Usage
So I am sitting there reading the morning paper at my regular 7am sitting and I could not help but to think about Crow and her desire to have everyone to just use a square. It got me to thinking about my usage.
How much do I really use? Is it too much? Do I really know how much I really use? So I pulled off my amount and carefully counted my squares. 7. I folded neatly and wiped. I pulled more of the roll again, 9, fold neatly and wiped. One last time (3 wipes. Always 3 wipes.) and pull 7 again fold neatly and wipe.
So now I have used a total of 23 squares. Way over the 1 that Crow yearns everyone to use.
Worried, I sit there trying to come up with reasons to justify in my head my usage. I could blame it on my OCD (3 wipes issue) but I am sure there is medication that would cure me of that. But then I would have to live with dingleberries. No thanks. Then it hit me. Drinking water and tea all day leads me to the mens room often throughout the day and since I don’t need to wipe when standing up I figure I am saving about 3 squares a visit. If I go about 7 times a day that means I am saving 21 squares and as a result my morning sitting really is only 3 squares which is within the limits I think.
So all things considered, my Toiletpaper footprint is pretty neutral.
I wonder……………………………………. can I buy TP credits?
I believe you have solved this toilet paper conundrum!
I think that Sheryl Crow must be in cahoots with the bidet industry.
