I have started a new deal at my house. When I open a new pack of toilet paper I start EVERY roll before pulling it on the shelf. Now I have half a roll’s worth on the floor by the time I am done but now I have a dozen roll (minus 1/2 on the floor) ready to go.

Yep. I hear ya, sister. You’re down to half a roll of TP when the shredding is done. It’s all part of the big money making scheme to get you to go through them faster and buy more.

And the milk flakes – disgusting.

But can we discuss the impossibility of opening the couscous spice pack without scissors? Kills me every time.

As I sit here, I’m doing the tinkle dance because I need to go but I also need to read and comment.

And because, I guarantee when I head for the 1/2 bath, there will be *no* TP in the bathroom.

So the household thing that annoys me the most? The children who live here with opposable thumbs who seem to be unable to replace anything. Ever.

You know what pisses me off? Plastic covers on hummus/yogurt/whatever with a pull tab that do not come off.

Or they come off in 27 strips of filmy hummus-y plastic.

(I feel better already, thanks)

Just this morning I was annoyed by glue. Not on the TP roll, but the adhesive that holds labels on cans. I wouldn’t normally try to unstick it, but we’re collecting the blasted box tops for education. I get the feeling they don’t want me to redeem those things and so I’m doubly determined to pull those puppies off!

There is no way I’d use that gluey piece of toilet paper! And to be honest, when I replace the roll (since I seem to be the only one who does this in our house) I un-glue that first square and chuck it. Throw it away.

Oh, the trees I’m killing with that one move.

yeah and glue on my toilet paper is just kind of unsettling. I don’t want any glue getting stuck somewhere it shouldn’t. I don’t think my hubs does either. TMI?

This isn’t a household appliance, but I hate the freaking packages the Barbies come in. It’s ridiculous! There’s layers of plastic and cardboard and then Barbie’s strapped down with the same material they make those plastic handcuffs out of. A long time ago, I learned to take wire cutters to Barbie. Saves a lot of cuss words and broken nails.

And for the record, there will come a day that no one follows you into the bathroom. Except then I got three dogs and yes, they all have to come into the bathroom with me. It gets very crowded.

I agree with Liz– the end of the rolls drives me bonkers… especially when I’m stuck after a pee and that’s all that’s left.
