Title: holy ****
Post by: Sifo on Thu, 26 January 2017, 23:46:06
For as long as I remember, I've had a roll of toilet paper by my bed cuz I'm too lazy to get tissue boxes.

I usually buy higher-quality tissues and TP at discount houses like Wal-Mart, where prices on that kind of thing are much better.

Good toilet paper costs about 1/2 cent per square and tissues cost a little under a cent each, if you buy larger quantities, so 2 squares of TP is roughly equivalent to a sheet of tissue in cost, just a bit higher, but better-quality TP is probably softer on the nose than ordinary tissue.

On the other hand, if you are really pinching pennies, low-quality TP is much cheaper and probably tilts the cost equation the other way, but pop-up tissues in a box are much more convenient and can easily be grabbed with one hand.

Loanshark (popular Mukbanger) uses TP for napkins.

I always thought the name should be "tissue4tp" (tissue for toilet paper), but now that you make that realization I guess it makes sense.

I keep a roll or two of toilet paper in the closet for guests, but it's all wet wipes in my house since June 12, 2013. That was the day that I saw the light.

I always wondered about tp4tissue's name since I first saw it years ago. Now it all makes sense thanks to Sifo.

You can't. Even the "flushable" ones you shouldn't flush.

well i mean you can... but you shouldnt  :))

I'm just imagining a wad of baby wipes jammed up in a drain pipe halfway out in the yard and poo literally filling up your downstairs shower. Good luck!

They don't degrade at all. Sewage treatment companies have to break up the blockages with a huge machine, and then take all the **** to the landfill because they can't process it through a normal treatment plant. The landfill bills alone cost companies tens of millions of pounds a year in the UK.

Wet wipes combined with grease people put down their drains equals huge blockages.

NSFW?

Spoiled ingrates  >:( .

Here in the Desert we just sling it off our noses or wipe it on some tissues and drop a rock over it.  Just don't return back to the same place you dropped it out.

You lot depend upon water too much, keep it for drinking only that way you won't die when it gets over 120F  ;) .

Bleh, water for drinking. I was my socks in water, and fish make love in it - surely a liquid like that can't be trusted!

No problem with the photo as long as the smell doesn't come through.

My friend worked at the sewage treatment plant in the early 1970s and had to remove masses of condoms with a pitchfork.

In the distant past we had to literally drink anything because the water truck failed to turn up during one of those heat waves and we did have to drink liquid from plastic bags set up around bushes.  Even consumed live giant grasshoppers at night when they were attracted to our work lights.  Juicy beggars but extremely crunchy, if it ever got really bad we were targeting one of the fresh new apprentice's, which had a lot of liquid in him if you decide to cleaver him open on any decent rock.  People do contain a lot of liquid in the form of blood and juices which can keep you alive for a few days  ;D .

At one time we could even drink gallons of Beer and Rum BUT the upper management took offense at us hurling our guts out everywhere.

Now every morning we have to get breath tested before we are allowed to set foot on the premises here, how times have changed for the worse.  At least when I get drunk, I can stay in my donga for the afternoon to recover which is my privilege alone.
