Sunday Funday: Can anyone explain why 1 ply is still around?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Institutions - there's little reason why your random Walmart wants to spend money on your cheerio. And, less likely to really plug it up with people using 1/3 roll per wipe.

For those of us on septic tanks it's a big help in avoiding too-frequent visits with the local Roto-Rooter guys!

I dunno but the old lady in the store gave me a dirty look when my GF and I walked by a display of 1-ply on sale and I referred to it as the "brown thumb special."

All good thoughts - I just end up using twice as much anyhow.

To get you to use soap after wiping?

Most of us know how this goes…

If you got [bleep] on your hands would you use toilet paper to wipe it off ? Wet wipes for the win and use the flushable kind.

Finger went thru two ply the other day, had to scrub like a MF. No reason for one ply, period

I've always surmised some people like the self rape thing.

This. Costco for the win.

The RV special is- well special. Dissolves on contact with wet.

It IS useful in RV's, boats, etc. Keeps the plumbing from plugging up.


I think one is supposed to use several folds, not just the one thickness. Hint. (from Big Shtit.).

I use Quilted Northern brand "triple ply" TP only.

LOL…to get a better feel for the wipe. Just use more to avoid the obvious $hitty situation. 🙄

So now the $64k question I've always wanted to ask (and I hope Slummy hasn't covered this before): How many squares of double-ply buttwipe do you use for a single swipe? and how many swipes to get your azz squeaky clean?

Who gives a schitt? 😜

1 ply is great for the grand kids, they play wheel of fortune when the hit the bathroom. Reduced the plug toilet and toilet lines going with one ply in the guest bathroom.

Nothing worst than plugged toilet and lines.

Every guy not on city sewer just cringed.




Except the Alaskans.
They have a shack out back.

Their anus shrank at the though of a -20 degree wet wipe!

RVs..

That makes sense

They’d be crispy.

Alaskans know the wet wipes come in the house. Same for the blue foam seat.

yea i bought some during covid -19 toilet paper shortage . only thing i could find..Hated it .you dont save money . you have to use twice as much of it to get the job done ,as you do reguler 2 ply paper

Guest bathrooms. Why should I spend extra money on some freeloader's bottom? Maybe it'll inspire them to go down to the local gas station and use their loo.

Haha. Start guests off with 3 ply then change it on them every day down to a 2 ply then to 1 ply and see if the message is transmitted

Leave a basket of hard dried corn cobs on the floor by the toilet

Why do you ask, brownfinger?

It’s the only piece of ass VarmintGuy ever gets

LOL

Haha. One time was enough

To discourage theft in public restrooms.

3 swipes, with Holiday Inn or random govt bldg TP
Chase it with a Baby Fresh wet wipe for proofing
1 final tp swipe to dry the aloe juice from the baby wipe

Proofing.


Hahaha. Most important of the steps but seldom discussed.

+1... But i like to follow up with a drop or two of Hoppes on a clean patch just to prevent rust.. And i always fire a fouling shot (fart?) or two before my next session, For best accuracy...

Charmin Ultra soft cannot be beat. Those with septic systems get them pumped more often. I try to do ours every year or two.

Bidet for the win lol

1 ply is better than nothing at all.....and Im sure we have all been there......

Ah yes, the tool of the bowely enlightened…much lighter actually. 😜

Some people are self-loathing types who find some small joy in shiit on their hands. I don't know any of those people, but if I did, I'd avoid them.

Not the best way to get in touch with your inner self.

You must be rich.

Our composting toilet at the cabin calls for one ply, we use two ply, and burn it. The same could work with a flush toilet.

this thread is a real turd

Yeah sh*t really hit the fan

Damn sure wouldn’t shake hands with them

What did you all use sixty years ago?

How so?

Huggies Baby Wipes for the win. Just don't flush them. Diaper hamper.

THIS!

T M I


LOL

Keep those dang things out of your septic tank. They don't help waste treatment plants, either. They contain synthetic fibers and glue that don't break down. Septic bacteria don't work on them and they end up as a gooey mass in the bottom of the tank.

Accidently got a twelve roll pack of 1 ply at Dollar General. Folded it twice and it became 4 ply. Glad we finally used it up.

Back at the start of covid insanity a couple of old fat women bought out all the TP at the grocery store. i managed to get a pack of one ply and suffered through it. Still wonder what those two used all that paper for. It must've been a ten year supply. Buggies full. Sheesh...
