So, I can't try this experiment at our house...but I'm sure it would stay in the hallway until, like Nathan said, the roll needed to be refilled.

It may take two seconds to do but it is a matter of principle! I think us college-aged kids (pretty soon I can't say that any more) are just too stubborn to be the one who puts things away. Luckily, my roommates and I are only stubborn about putting the clean things away.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00226922493237168564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7614350181757194859.post-68110719141829427392009-04-27T21:32:00.000-04:002009-04-27T21:32:00.000-04:00Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hourly. Minutely. (no, wait.. that's not right! But you know what I mean...). To discover that the punctual, peaceful, personable, pleasant Nathan and Sarah are actually capable of ignoring toilet paper for days? Well, it just makes me feel like we aren't lagging QUITE so far behind; I think I can at least see Sarah's smile from here. :<) And considering Steve's role in this misadventure? I'd have to say that I know which side that teeny, tiny ornery streak may have come from.

She was a clever older woman that parents turned to for advise on how to handle specific issues with their 'naughty' children.<br /><br />She would have recommended leaving tiolet paper there in the hallway along with their laundry and anything else belonging to them until they were physically unable to get down the hallway..and then there would be a hilarious, common sense result where the kids learned a lesson :) Anyway, just wondered if you had ever read the very enjoyable Mrs. Piggle Wiggle.lesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09501503992952033631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7614350181757194859.post-41862126492461912972009-04-27T20:45:00.000-04:002009-04-27T20:45:00.000-04:00I am particularly thrilled that Sarah's outfit whi...I am particularly thrilled that Sarah's outfit while standing in the hallway holding the toilet paper matched the hall decor perfectly.<br /><br />I have a lot of outfits, but none of them can be described as "The Putting Toilet Paper in the Proper Place" outfit.<br /><br />Do you have a personal shopper, or what?Sue Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10661749227670056682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7614350181757194859.post-33847482302728857672009-04-27T20:14:00.000-04:002009-04-27T20:14:00.000-04:00This story was especially funny to me because I re...This story was especially funny to me because I remember when you, Ruth and I were teenagers and you did the same experiment with us. You purposefully left something in the middle of the floor and waited to see how long it would take for one of us to pick it up. I can't remember who finally succumbed, but to this day, whenever I see something laying around for a while, I think of your "experiment" way back when! And I have to admit--sometimes I still don't pick it up right away:-)).<br /><br />Glad the toilet paper is, at last, in its rightful place!<br /><br />Love,<br />DebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7614350181757194859.post-45849012105243390382009-04-27T20:08:00.000-04:002009-04-27T20:08:00.000-04:00Reminds me of the suitcase on the stairs (that was...Reminds me of the suitcase on the stairs (that was there for many days) in Everybody Loves Raymond.<br />Maybe you should be a sit-com writer based on<br />Smith Family Happenings.<br /><br />mrs pamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
