Building a Better Mousetrap?

Or in this case, tp.  I don't know why I find this so hilarious.

No longer is it a straight tear, but wavy.  Will other manufactures follow along, or does Charmin have a copyright?

Thanks for reading this crazy post.
Pug hugs 😁

Am surprised they've gone creative and probably caused the price to go up. Saw on the news several weeks ago a person complaining about how TP manufactures' quality has gone down because of the cost of supplies to make the TP. So now they are using cheaper ingredients which compromises the quality. Woman said she'd never had an issue with clogging up her drains until lately.

Uh, is Charmin give you kickbacks for this ad, lol.

We are using this. I wish I could say it’s made a huge difference with my life experience.
The best “different “ thing I’ve seen in tp was in Mexico. One of their brands had no
cardboard core; instead the paper was wrapped tighter, providing the core. When the paper
was gone there was nothing left. Smarter

Oh oh. Somebody sat on the potty too long and came up with this revolutionary idea. lol...The whole world has gone crooked, why not the toilet paper too?

Thanks for brightening up my otherwise boring day Lauren. You always come up with something out of the ordinary.

OMG Will this way really tear better? How many times does Charmin have to be new and improved??? LOL Janice

Fancy. If straight perforations do not tear easily, why would a curve?

Looks like less usable space to me. There has to be more benefit to them, such as requiring the use of more tp. I've noticed that the Costco tp seems to be less densely woven. For all the "alternative" fibers that are making their way into hooking, tp does not seem to be one of them nor hold much promise. :) Colleen

LOL!! Thanks for this funny post! What will they think of next? Or should the question be WHY?
Think of the cost of the machine they had to re-tool to make that “fussy cut”
