In a rush, I ran to the local grocery store before it closed after a 2-hour swim in my dormitory’s pool. I bought chicken, bell peppers, a bar of chocolate (oh, the shame) and toilet paper. Or at least I thought it was toilet paper.

Ah! Those crafty old ladies who run the local grocery store (yup, not a single man works there, and all the females who do work there are at least around 95 years old). “They” strategically put the toilet paper and the kitchen towels in the same place, and in no particular order. As I was too hungry and energetic after the swim, I just grabbed the first thing I found in the toilet paper/kitchen towel section and ran off home, happily anticipating of the dinner I was about to cook.

Well the cooking went well, but when I came back, to introduce what I thought was toilet paper to the place in which it is to spend the rest of its useful life, I was shocked to find out that - magically - the toilet paper had mutated itself into kitchen towels.

I suspiciously looked at the packing of the newly-transformed toilet paper to find the following text:

“Nepia: Nepia Kitchen Towels are thick, strong, and more absorbent than ever. Use them to dry meat and vegetables, to clean pans and dishes… The possibilities are endless!”

 

… Now what?!

    The possibilities are endless! Is that why you need it indeed???

    SiNe - I don’t know. I thought that maybe I could find meaning in this tragic life of mine through these tissue rolls.

    Hasan,
    If you had a sticker on your back to describe you, it’d say “thick, strong, and more absorbent than ever”…

    Am I right?

    Odd,

    Perhaps you’re right. Then again, if I did have those words on my back, it would mean that the Nepia Kitchen Towel Company owns me.
