Everything has improved except....

Toilet paper!! Do you realize that throughout the ages, toilet paper has not changed at all? Its just paper on a cardboard roll, and in 10,000 years, it will still be the same; because what else can they do? But we now have a problem, there is a shortage!! We need to make a change! What can we do?

We could help other countries improve their toilet paper. I've lived all over the world, and... it's amazingly sad, what some countries think of as paper to wipe yourself with. If only they knew the soft, tender caress of American TP, the world would enter a new Golden Age. And everyone would love us....

Beg to differ, Doc.
Search IZAL, which was popular with folks of a certain generation, including my grandparents. I think I still have the scars to prove it!

In Europe in the 1800's they used a coil of rope hanging from the ceiling. When you were finished with your segment you sent it on its way down the pipe until the reel was empty and they'd hoist up another reel. So glad that's not still in style.

I went to my local Kroger yesterday morning. Couldn't believe how much TP some people had in their carts. Folks are still grabbing it like it's going out of style.

I bought a 30 pack months before we ever heard of CoVid. No need to buy more.

First of all, there’s no shortage. They make tons of it every day and there’s plenty to go around, but people are hoarding it. And, it has changed. Haven’t you noticed that the rolls are getting narrower? That’s so the maker doesn’t have to raise the price, but you get less for your money.

Is it your disc or bandwidth?

Some things just can't be improved..

True that. I'm not sure how much more anyone could realistically expect a piece of toilet paper to do. It accomplishes its single purpose.

Yeah, and only once.... hopefully but who knows what changes could be coming....

Wow! Haven't seen that spelling for disc in years. I remember a time when a "disc" pretty much meant a floppy disc, whereas a "disk" was your hard drive.

But both those terms have become meaningless these days. "Drive" is the now the catchall term for storage.

(Once an IT professional always an IT professional I guess. )

Well...Murphy is inescapable. Work on something long enough to "improve" it and it'll break.
