Sounds asinine but it is what it is. I currently have my sister and her two kids staying with me. I have 2.5 bathrooms in my house, my sister and her kids use 1 and the half-bath. Each bathroom has a holder/stand combo to hold extra rolls.

Since they’ve moved in, instead of using up an entire roll, when there’s like a quarter or a bit more on the roll they take out new rolls. This started to result in rolls with lots of tissue still on it being left on the stand and sink or on the back of the toilet. Really wasteful and I talked to my sister about it. She said they’d stop doing it. They didn’t. I took all the extra rolls of TP out of the bathrooms they used and just put 1 roll in each and just keep all the TP in the hall closet. My sister was mad and thought I was being controlling, I think I’m putting a stop to waste since I’m not asking her to chip in for groceries, which the TP falls under.

Yesterday our parents were over and my sister told them all about it. Our father thought the whole situation was hilarious but our mom told me to stop being a stubborn ass because it was such a non-issue. While I’m not thrilled she told them about it, our mom’s reaction has me wondering if I’m really being an ass here or not.

Edit: Her kids aren’t the only ones that do it, my sister does as well.
