...but I can come up with this

After a long day of being nice to patrons, I had this ridiculous conversation with my friend, who can identify himself if he wishes...the set up is that I forgot to by toilet paper at the store, and am irritated I have to carry home a ton on the bus. Conversation edited to make a bit more sense. Also, I should admit that my best friend and cousin Kristin, never EVER called me a douche as a child. She just passed the Maryland Bar so I need to be mindful of slander or libel.

Friend: what's wrong with carrying TP on the bus? everybody poops
Me: yeah but for some reason it embarasses me to just buy tp
Friend: if I can take my 14 year old cousin to walgreens to buy tampons when I was 16, you can buy TP at the store and ride the bus
Me: i hate hate hate mixing paper products and using them for their unintended purposes
Friend: Bathroom Tissue is for noseblowing too
Me: tp = ass. kleenex/tissue = nose, paper towel = spills. i've only recently adapted to paper towel = napkin, and trust me that was a hard switch to make.
Friend: wow...a charmed life. when we were growing up, me and my bros kept a roll of TP around for nose blows
Me: this is BLOG FODDER
Me: my family was very anti paper mixing but i've learned that we were the only ones
Friends: HA
Me: i'd go to my cousins and tell her she's out of kleenex and she'd be like wtf use tp you douche, and i'd be all mortified
Friend: HAHAHA
Me: like when i learned her family only used Colgate and my fam is a pure Crest family. I was like HOW CAN YOU NOT USE
CREST OMG
Friend: haha...wow. total brainwash
Me: i switched laundry detergents
recently. otherwise i'm on all the same brands as a kid. my family totally brainwashed me
Friend: funny; my family picked brands based on the coupons that came out that week
Me: zest, cascade, kleenex, quilted northern. i recently switched from tide to ALL. that was intense.
Friend: you guys were all about brand loyalty
Me: yes... and fiscal irresponsibility
Me: and i still am... *cough new laptop*
Friend: ha. well, don't freak out if you have to use excel on a mac


Note that I noted this was good for the blog. Ultimate geek here. I still hate mixing paper products, and yes, I still hate wet paper. Finally, my dishes are in the dishwasher with some cascade, got zest in the shower, crest by my sink...my family really did brainwash me.
