Illustration Friday - Bog Roll Theory 2-ply vs 1-ply
I have friends who insist they buy two-ply because you use less. So, even though it costs enough to bring tears to your eyes (resulting in the potential use of so much more of the stuff), apparently it's a psychological sort of usage. You pull off more streams of one-ply because two-ply is so much thicker and lovely and fat and absorbent.
I say codswollop. I'm a struggling freelancer who can only afford one-ply and those occasions I've felt like spoiling myself (three-ply with those really big contracts), I pluck just as much of my bog roll, no matter what the ply.
Does anyone out there agree with me? Relate to this? Swear by the two-ply?

Blimey, I have to confess to being a 2-ply wench myself; I'd rather eat generic soup and use generic shampoo and apply all saved pennies toward the extra ply. I don't use any MORE or LESS, though, if I use 1-ply, I just like the cushy-ness. I guess I feel my bottom is worth it (grin).
