It's rollin', rollin', rollin'- keep that TP rollin'

[packman]

Archimedes, the ancient Greek scientist, was taking a bath when he had his eureka! moment, discovering a physics principle using water displacement to measure density. Rob Reinerman, lead of the innovation team at Procter & Gamble, was taking a dump when genius struck, leading to the creation of Charmin’s Forever Roll, a massive roll of toilet paper for millennial asses.
.....

“I was at home, I think on a weekend. I was finishing up my business and faced the age-old question of whether to replace the roll or leave that last square for the next person,” Reinerman told BuzzFeed News. Ultimately, he knew the next person to use the bathroom would be his wife, who would be annoyed to find a nearly kicked roll.

But the germ of an idea was planted: What if they made a toilet paper roll that was…UNIMAGINABLY HUGE

2. Not your mistake

Water displacement does not measure density, it measures volume.

4. Which allows density to be determined indirectly, which is what Archimedes was trying to do.

He had been challenged to measure the gold content of a crown, and was trying to figure out how to do it. Inspiration struck in the bath. Measure the volume by displacement, measure the weight, and you have the density. The closer it came to the density of gold, the purer the gold.

3. That's a weeks worth for my girlfriend.

5. Extra hot curry burritos, here I come!

6. After a night of extra hot chicken wings,

my buddy invited my daughter to spend the night with his daughter.
My daughter later described his agony as he begged for another roll.

7. You're still going to get down to that last sheet - just sayin'.

9. Oh, yeah!

We joke around that our biggest cat could have a job as a shredder in a bank or office. He demolishes toiler paper and would have grand old time with this.
