TP is designed to dry clean crotches, not much good for wet
cleaning... wet a wad of TP and it begins to decay and leave lint
everywhere. Paper towels hold up well when wet... I prefer to clean
bath and kitchen surfaces with paper towels and then toss them, much
more sanitary than having dirty wet cloth towels/sponges around. I
don't buy tissues either, for blowing noses the half size paper towels
are far better (I only buy the half size), they're soft yet don't
disintergrate... if you forget a paper towel in a pocket no biggie,
forget a tissue in a pocket it'll F-UP your entire wash with lint. In
my night stand drawer I have a tissue box, but it's filled with a
stack of half size paper towels... same on the desk in my office... I
really detest tissues, they're relatively expensive and pretty much
useless.
