One of my aunts -- my mom's youngest sister -- is a super tree-hugger and is posting lists of "natural things you can use instead of toilet tissue" on Facebook. All of them look terrifying and unsanitary and possibly not very soft.

you should tell her poison ivy leaves work best.

I heard corn cobs are the best TP alternative. I need to see if there is any corn left at the store

No, this was a "use as a replacement for," and I know I know I know I KNOW that plenty of other cultures only use water but here, in the US, most of us use toilet tissue.

  I checked Amazon and the only thing I saw in stock was bamboo toilet paper. I'm sure there is a reason for that.

We have a meeting every morning that serves zero purpose and usually last about 4mins. It's usually just, all right lets have a big day or great we had a big day yesterday good job. 28 people in a room to capacity. Think it would be a good idea to suggest that stop for a while?

  They suggest limiting groups to less than 10. If you all work in the same place I don't think it's as important because you all probably come in contact with each other or the same areas throughout the day. The size limits are more for random gatherings where you might just meet someone once.

 

  We had a meeting today with about 30 people and the first thing they talked about was limiting meetings to less than 10 people. Kind of ironic - starting tomorrow I guess. It's a good idea to skip if they are not necessary. Ours are mostly about nothing and could be done by email so we are just going to do them by email.

I watched your video last night. I still don't really understand how any of that is done without getting poo on your hand, even if it is a soapy one. I'm sure it's cultural, but to me that's not something I really want to do. I mean, needs must, but right now, I have plenty of loo roll.

Of COURSE you get poo on your hand silly!  That's what the soap and water are for afterwards.  No different than changing a baby's diaper.  Or cleaning the crack of an elderly person.  It's how they do it in MANY countries to this day.

I seem to recall talking about this last week, and one poster pooh-poo'd me.  "Worse than 9/11" I believe I said.  "Whatever" (I think) was the reply.
