Would you use a corn cob instead of toilet paper?

The sad part is that there's plenty of TP if only people were realistic about it. Are they filling their rooms to the ceiling? I have enough for about the next week or 10 days. I'm guessing there are folks that have way more than that. And that headline? Just a bit biased, don't you think? And political. Can't remember when I saw a negative headline that began "Democrat so-and-so..." Pretty sure he was joking, in any case.

As a kid, I got caught many time in remote areas of my grandfather's ranch where I had to "improvise."
Johnson grass, bad choice, too many chiggers.
Dries moss, bad choice for so many reasons.
Dries corncob, I would consider it, maybe.
Best emergency choice, a dry smooth rock, actually several of them.

And then I got smart and started carrying toilet paper, a great invention.
 
As of today I have 8 rolls of TP. Since it's only me, that should last a while. I've never used a lot of it, just a few squares each time, but now I even use a toilet stool and the cleaning for #2 is minimal.

I've heard that people in the middle east use the fingers of the left hand to clean and wash themselves with water ''down there''. Never the right hand, as that is used for eating. That's another possibility, if they can do it, so can we. (I rather not, but that's beside the point).
 
In earlier times, people in rural America would supposedly tear pages from the Sears catalogue rather than use toilet paper in their outhouses. That wouldn't work now as Sears has essentially gone out of business!

By the way, toilet paper is now selling for outrageous prices on eBay and Amazon, mostly low quality stuff from China that wouldn't be delivered unti May. I got hysterical over one review that said the toilet paper might have value if set on fire, and thrown at zombies.--Maybe that's next! o_O

That reminded me of ''The Walking Dead'' with the problems of finding food and clean water. They never did tell how the people cleaned their behind. :unsure:
