This is especially awesome when you’re in a restroom at someone’s house and you don’t know where to get more. It’s a bonus if the toilet paper roll is installed the way you like it.
This is exactly what I was going to pop in here to add. This is awesome in normal life, but damn near divine when it happens at someone else’s house.
Running out of toilet paper when you’re at guest at someone else’s place, ranks only behind clogging their toilet in terms of worst things that can happen when you’re over at a your new girlfriend or bosses house.
This is, unfortunately, never me. I’m the one constantly checking the toilet paper to make sure there’s enough for me. Neither my kids nor my husband have mastered the “put the new toilet paper roll on after you finish” concept. It makes for interesting dance routines while switching rolls, though.
I am the one who is left changing the roll – ALL the time! Even in public restrooms… To the point where I’ve begun to believe this is one of my “special purposes” on Earth!
UMmmmmm, it is quite nice that you shall not be in that terrible situation BUT you have to live with the guilt that you may have put someone in that situation.

Then again, that may lead to one needing to change the roll when they finish…which can also be a fun experience, in a strange way.

Love it when this happens, especially if “The Revenge” were to hit you…

then you leave it for someone else to change, or grab the empty roll and throw it directly into the bin like a pro

It’s even better when the person before you has replaced the depleted roll with a fresh new one.

I need an entire roll for myself. It is good though if you are clean just before the last piece is used.

I love this site, and haven’t been on it in a couple weeks, and noticed this one! That photo is from my site :) how exciting!

Why does it happen so often that the roll is so low in the first place. It is great to have enough!
