TP thread
« on: Mon, 06 July 2015, 02:02:58 »
Topic is inspired by the recent hunterangel topic and the all the 100 other tp4 threads :)

A question: When you wipe your ass after going to the toilet, how many squares of toilet paper do you use each wipe, and how do you fold it? There are probably some which don't have compartmentalized(google couldn't find a better word) toilet paper, you can guesstimate.

i myself(a bit ocd ish) takes three and folds from left and then from right, perfect!

Also: Are there any toilet paper origamists out there ?
picture stolen from the internet, i have no idea how to do this :P

No rules for me, I just make sure there's enough paper so I don't touch the poop.

While we're on this topic, do you guys stand or sit to wipe?


I was a stand wipper for all my life until I discovered that some sit to wipe, and It's so much better.

4 sections, fold in half to 2, wipe, fold again, wipe again. also, charmin ultra soft with aloe is literally the only acceptable toilet paper.

I begin to go to the potty. Once I'm done, I pull about 10 squares, fold in the middle, and use one square per wipe. So effectively making it a 4 ply roll.
I do this so I don't give a quick poke to myself while wiping.

+1 for Charmin. Just got over a budget pack. Never again. I'll use my own socks before buying anything other than Charmin again.

This is also my method of paper usage. Sitting wiper.

Just remember that not all cultures use toilet paper.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

23, fold in desired length, wipes on walls, unfold and rolls, throw to a random toilet's corner and watch it roll back to original length, pick it up and put to the toilet, then say **** to the paper and use a hand bidet

I use 1 ply. I can control the amount of tp I use better. I'm always concerned that I going to clog the toilet.

I fold, too. No scrunching.

I fold about 12-ish squares for the first wipe. If it isnt too messy, I reduce it to about 10 or 8 squares.

I hate when the first wipe looks clean. You still wipe 1 or 2 more times anyway cause you think you "missed" your butt hole.

I clean my butt fast enough. I mostly poop at work. Single ply lasts pretty long since more squares fit on the roll.

I'm a proud sitting wiper. I grew up thinking that was the only way to do it, and didn't know that stand-to-wipe was at thing until a couple of years ago. Typically I grab three squares at a time and fold over into thirds for an instant 3X ply boost. Then I fold my 3-square in half for wipe number 2, and then usually again a third time. So at the end of the day it's one square, one wipe.

I also sit to pee unless there's a compelling reason not to (e.g., port-a-potty, long line). This provides an opportunity to tidy up in between poops. The freshness is real, don't knock it till you've tried it.

On a septic system there is residue that accumulates over time and will eventually need to be pumped out. If you are on a city sewer system, they can pretty much take care of it.

Flushing wipes is much more problematic, since they do not disintegrate easily, at the minimum use the "flushable" type.

Yeah we don't flush toilet paper or wipes.

The kids get confused when going to a public restroom because they don't want to flush the paper.

I'm a roller. I don't put the roll on the holder, just sit it there. Roll around my hand a couple of times, wipe, fold, wipe again, repeat with new TP if necessary, wet TP if it's still somehow unclean.

I sit. Too awkward to reach around. I also do it the 'wrong' direction. If you get crap in the wrong place wiping forward I don't even know what you're doing but you're doing it wrong.

Been waiting for this :))
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
