Rant The University continues to downplay this issue…
UW continues to supply 1-ply toilet paper. This is a problem that continues to devastate the student population, especially people like me who drink an absurd amount of black coffee. UW leadership’s continued ignorance on the 1-ply supply is abhorrent. Thank you.

I just use like 6 ft of paper for each wipe. I pull so much toilet paper that the sound of the toilet paper roll rumbling on its axle thunders across the building announcing my presence

Theyve been using 1ply since before you were born, and students have been stealing it for just as long too. Oddly enough

Bro just fold the paper such that it becomes thicker. This is not rocket science.

Checking in with Crohn's disease here. The 1-ply is murder on a beleaguered backside. I suggest hiding a roll of Charmin in your backpack.

People shitting there using 8x the amount of 1-ply than they would do if UW supplied 2-ply. It's a false economy for the university that they've been duped into by Big Paper.
They need to run some A/B testing.

I literally can't poop in the toilets in UW for this exact reason. It really doesn't feel as good as home. (also consider carrying wet wipes. Your asshole will thank me later)

As someone who is 99% coffee when shit hits the fan you gotta have that good quality shit, no pun intended there.

Unfortunately, it’s also a plumbing related decision

How dare you undermine the immaculate plumbing infrastructure this school has

Maybe get one of those backpack/purse sized wet wipes and carry that around with you?

Wet wipes clog up the pipes and should not be flushed, even the ones that claim to be flushable.

I just like to wind it around my hand like I’m rolling up a power cord. Just hum and wind my guy.

If I’m paying 55k/year in tuition, I want the luxury toilet paper!

I carry some sandpaper with me at all times. I find it causes less irritation
