I have to love my company. High-end double-ply paper in the restrooms. Cleaned twice daily. Fresh flower arrangements. The joys of working for a very well funded company.

In my house we use only one square and really that is all you need if you follow my rules.

Take the 1 square and fold it twice one over the other.
Take the middle corner and tear off a part so when you open it up you have a hole.
Stick finger in hole and clean brown star with finger.
After done use the paper around the finger to wipe finger clean when you remove it.
Take the corner piece you previously took off to clean under nail.
Hand or finger washing is optional.

If you do it this way a roll will last 6 months if it is scotts 1000 sheets roll.

wtf?

I was thinking it's his household/family (by use of the "my house" and "we"). His method provides for 5-6 person family wiping once per day each for 6 months on a 1000 sheet roll

 
Scott's toilet paper rules All.

Single ply,and strong.

n 1890, the Scott Paper Company manufactured toilet paper on a roll, much as we know it today. 1935 saw the introduction of toilet paper without splinters
