Back in my day, we used toilet paper as it was intended; to TP someone’s house/trees/car!

Call the Fire Marshall, I think…

100 rolls a year? The average American goes through two rolls of TP a week? Am I way below the curve? I get more like a month out of a roll.

Maybe that’s the average american household?

Hrmm. From toilet paper history dot net:

In an average household, the average roll of toilet paper lasts approximately five days.
…
The average person uses 100 rolls of toilet paper per year (over 20,000 sheets).

Holy shit!

I wonder what this would have cost to pull off in Barrow, Alaska?

I’m not saying aliens built the TP pyramid, but it was aliens… after chili night.

I was certain that this was going to be another BoingBoing buy-a-bidet post.

I suppose ass size is a factor here.

And if there is a Mexican restaurant nearby…

Ah, to be young again.

I once made a 7x7x7 cube of Fresca cans in my dorm room. Not quite as impressive, I suppose.

Can we really believe that mere students created such a pyramid? Or perhaps they received help from beyond our world?

I misread their club name as “Buttock Creek”, and I thought it sounded appropriate.

[knoxblox]

And your mind didn’t take it the obvious one step further into “buttock crack”? /s

[euansmith]

Actually, it did toy with “Buttock Cheek”.
