Bet your watch can’t do that

I think it’s nice that we can have this conversation about toilet paper without talking about hoarding it.

My wife has a great collection of watches from teeny vintage cocktail watches up to her Marathon Navigator and everything in between- she also has her Fitbit.
I was sitting in the living room and got a text asking if I could bring her more toilet paper from the basement...she didn’t have her phone, she texted me from her watch.
As much as I hate technology, using a smart watch to bail you out of no tee-pee just proves how useless analog watches truly are. I am sad now.
We've finally found a thread in which PICTURES are neither required nor requested.

We’re talking about people who don’t even remember to make sure the seat is down before sitting...
I grew up with an older sister- I learned the proper etiquette the hard way. Apparently I left the seat up one night and she fell in- then came into my room and punched me. I had female roommates all through college, then many live-in girlfriends and all of them appreciate my sisters early corporal education.

Or this can turn into which watch do you wear in the toilet?

Come on man get that watch out of the frame, it's messing up the camera's focus on the toilet paper 😁

Does your lady know you posted this anecdote on a public forum? Sheesh! My wife doesn’t have a FitBit. But given the same circumstances, I’m sure she’d find a way. 😉
I think JWRosenthal is trying to impress us with the elevated sophistication that thrives in his household. One of my offspring had the most annoying habit of grabbing the nearest face cloth or towel, whenever the TP ran out in their bathroom. This inclination took a few months to correct and although this was 25 years ago, my wife who did the laundry always has several extra rolls stacked in plain view, without fail. We may run out of food, but we always have plenty of TP on hand.
