The Toilet Paper War

The Toilet Paper War

So a couple of days ago, I started noticing how often I change the toilet paper roll in the apartment. Ever since I moved out, it always seemed like I was the only person changing the roll. My roommate isn't the type of person who just leaves an empty roll in the bathroom. It actually never came to that. It just so happens that I would always be the last person to use up the roll, and then I would have to change it.

I started noticing how I was always the last person to use it up. Is my roommate leaving just enough so that there can only be one more use out of it? It was starting to bug me!!! Watch out! Brenda's on a mission now!

Day 1

I stopped using the current roll and used another roll....a secret roll! Yes ladies and gentlemen....a SECRET roll!! The roll now has maybe enough for about two more uses. Surely it will be used up by the end of the day.

Day 2

The toilet paper is still not changed. There's now only enough for one more use out of it. By the end of the day, it's still like that. How can she not use it up already?!

Day 3

I check the toilet paper roll when I got home from work.... and it still hadn't been touched!!! What the hell?!! What is she using?! Later that night, I hear my roommate go to the bathroom. Then I hear her turn the toilet paper roll and go "Ugh..". Success!! I think she's finally changing it. I go to the bathroom after she's done and guess what? The roll STILL hasn't been changed! What the hell is going on?! She's gotta be using something! Maybe the kleenex?

Day 4

I go check the toilet paper roll again in the morning, and it's still at that same state. At this point, I'm ready to throw in the towel. I had plans to go meet up with friends so before I left, I caught my roommate cleaning the bathroom and she had discovered my secret roll!! Oh crap. Then I bolted for the door. I meet up with my friends and they're telling me I'm insane and that I should just change the damn roll. "Fine!! I will change the stupid roll!! I will be the stupid toilet paper changer!!! If that's what it takes to change the roll, I will always be the stupid toilet paper changer!!!" So later that day, I came home and guess what? The toilet paper was finally changed!!! I call my roommate up and started bragging about how I finally broke her. "What the hell were you using? It was boggling my mind!"

WELL...it turns out that my roommate was doing the exact same thing I was doing!! "You were trying to break me?!! I was trying to break YOU!!!" I had mentioned a while back that I was always the one to change the toilet paper and she wanted to test that theory. "Wow, we are such losers. We were both testing each other and we didn't even know it." The funny part about all this was that my secret roll...... turned out to be HERS too!!! My roommate and I were BOTH using the same secret roll!!! We had a really big laugh over that.

Yes...we are both such IDIOTS.

But I still won the toilet paper war.... and that's important.
