    Not sure what I’d do in a public toilet.

    At home though, a lesson learned long ago: the whole pack of tp rolls has its place right next to the bowl, right under my eyes.

      Unfortunately I’ve seen the kids use an entire role for who the fuck knows, in the time between my toilet breaks. I have to make sure there’s at least 4 spare roles at the beginning of the weekend. Even then sometimes they just ball it up, wet it, and stick it to the cocking ceiling.

        Store some rolls higher up but near the toilet if you can, the little ones cant use what they cant reach so youll always have a safety backup

        I am on a dorm, so my TP consumption is high.
        Lemme explain:
        So, there’s a bunch of people using the same toilet, meaning it’s quite gross. Additionally, it is very clear people don’t bother to put the seat up, and just piss over it.
        So, first wipe off everything that can be wiped off dry, then spray it with 70% isopropyl alcohol (and there’s also like 1% H2O2 if it didn’t decompose because that’s (3%) also cheap and more available than distilled water to dilute the IPA) , let it be soaked for at least 30 seconds, then wipe it, then let the room air out because the vapors are quite strong, and then I still cover the seat with toilet paper because that’s not as good as I like.

        Preferably I’d be using bleach (sodium hypochlorite), but that’s a little too inconvenient.

        But I feel like the only thing that can sanitize this building is a nuclear bomb.

          Everything in urine is necessarily water soluble. Tap water followed by isopropyl for the bacteria and you’re good to go. Apart from a sheet on top of the water to prevent Poseidon’s kiss.
