I must have grabbed a defective pack of toilet paper at Costco because a few of the rolls are cut at a weird angle and the paper comes out all bejiggity sideways and s***. Basically the whole tube is cut at a 3 degree angle off from left to right. So instead of a roll like this [||] it's like this [//] and the paper like / \ / \ / and the edges are all sideways.
Has anyone else ever had this or is it just some conspiracy against me? I'm gonna call those damn charmin bears and tell them to get the s*** straight.

It's TP so I don't think your butt hole will mind the angles.

You are bad at toilet paper. Its not the rolls fault you cannot properly operate it.

Toilet paper is glued then cut to avoid the insane headache it would be to line how ever many feet properly, especially around curves.

The two plies have separated, and one ply has wrapped around the roll an extra time. Re-separate the two plies, and unwrap the outer one. When it comes back around they will be matched up again.

I'm not interested in this unless it resulted in anal bleeding.

It's not that I'm an ***hole, I say this in regards to anything.

I've had brand new defective books come through the warehouse that were like that. Funny thing is, those books get shipped off to be turned into toilet paper.

Costco has such a generous policy for returns that you could bring a half-used defective roll in 89 days later and get a full refund and a free hot dog and soda.

Oh that?

People pay extra for that in Europe.
You probably just got hold of a batch from overseas somehow.

Scrunched?! What the hell man! Thats the most inefficient use of toilet paper. Its all about the fold and getting the most from the roll and using the most surface area and least amount of paper. I swear this is why a package of TP lasts longer in my house when there isn't a woman around.
Balling it up and then wiping is senseless. Wipe, refold, wipe again. You'll have more money for beer.

Folding is for dabbing cooters dry.
The rest of your argument is invalid.

Things are backwards on your side of the world.
Here, the women (typically) take heaps of balled up toilet paper to dab their cooters dry and men take the approach to make the expensive butt paper last.
My household toilet paper consumption goes up exponentially when women are around. Why use a giant cottonball to wipe your a**?

:rotflmao :rotflmao :rotflmao :rotflmao great video! I agree, even through my precise folding... the coverage area is maximized because of the off cut edges... i may have my million here people!

after reading that thread and whole-heartedly agreeing with everyone on there, i have vowed to be a thread whore of massive proportions. General chat will be my Hollywood & Vine from now on. useless threads will dominate my thread count but ill try to write a few Nissan relevant ones as well... i actually just started a "Break thread" after 5 years of lurkling.
