Stealing Toilet Paper

[fredmugs]

Even fairly full rolls flatten if you remove the cardboard inside.
They then can go in a ziploc bag and you pull the paper out from the inside of the roll and you have your waterproof TP holder and dispenser...

True but I may take a dump every 3rd or 4th day on the trail so I don't need that much.

Also, after you take the cardboard out of the center, you can pull the paper from the center without taking it out of the zip lock its in. I find that this reduces the amount of times i drop my roll.

Nothing worse than dropping your last roll of tp in water.

When you poop in the water do you watch it float away like a little sailboat?

Somebody should do a poll!

503, do you have a scrap book of the different types and where you collected them from? Are some types more rare and valuable than others?

Just did a Thanksgiving holiday extended ten day bike, hike and camping (yeah I said the word camping) trip.

One of the trailheads I biked to for hiking has fancy solar powered Clivus Multrum composting toilets. Apparently the weekenders had used up all the supplied paper and someone left a roll of this.

I took a few feet of it. It is almost useless. One ply, rough, the ink is thicker than the paper. But it was good for a laugh. and as a backup in my handlebar bag.

It was taken and replaced with the good stuff by maintenance the next day.

When you finish a thru there's a certain amount of adjustment you go through to get back into "normal" life. One of the things I noticed was that every time I went into a public restroom I felt the urge to pull off a little extra TP, roll it up and put it in my pocket.

I found that I was always looking for a tree, despite the fact that I was in the middle of town and there was a public restroom right there. Yes, I did use a tree a few times right off a conv. store parking lot.

Or you could print out the almost 400 pages of the cyber cafe and have enough for an entire thru!

Can you get rice paper for a printer?

You can tell the size of a buck by the size tree he rubs his antlers on...

Hmmm, rice paper, follows with the UL mantra of duel use. Eat and wipe from the same roll!
