I was reading an article today in a popular magazine.

I think it was an article that gave you tips on how to throw an impromptu dinner party (of course, I'm never really sure exactly I am reading, because I always read articles by starting at the end and reading toward the beginning, but that's another story).

The article said that if you only have time to clean one room in your house before guests arrive, then do a quick clean on the bathroom.

Then it said that you should put AT LEAST 5 rolls of toilet paper in your bathroom, so that none of your guests get "stranded".

My first thought was that if I am hanging around the type of people that are going to come to my house and and burn through 5 rolls of toilet paper, then they can just stay the fuck home.

No dinner for them.

1. they make great parting gifts.

very practical, if nothing else....

2. I just hope that no one tried to somehow "use" the entire roll at once

and then mistakenly put it back on the shelf.

That would be a lousy gift.

3. If your dinner requires 5 rolls

I don’t want it!!!

More important is asking your guests if they know the difference between toilet paper and a shower curtain. If they cannot say don’t let them use the bathroom.

4. I am reminded to two things

First is this post from yesterday: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10181232730

Second is that, if you happen to go through 5 rolls in an evening, it was probably the cat:

6. Hey little fella better lighten your touch.

What you thought was too little
Might be too much

Cha cha cha, Charmin!

Is there any cat who hasn't unrolled at least one roll of TP at some point in his/her life?

7. Well, it depends on your cooking.

They may just need to burn through 5 rolls of toilet paper.

8. Cooking?

My dinner parties consist of cheap deli meat and Wonderbread.

The people seem to like it very very much.
