Creative Toilet Paper Usage in Webcomics //at 10:34 //by abe

from the do-not-try-this-at-home dept.

Funnily two of my daily web comics recently featured interesting things you could do with toilet paper: Zits on 19th of September 2011 involving a fan and Calvin and Hobbes on 13th of September 2011 involving flushing the toilet.

Although both experiments are obviously resource wasting, they look like quite some fun and I’m tempted to actually try them both at least once. (I though don’t plan to try this, too. :-)

Hackergotchi of Axel Beckert

About...

This is the blog or weblog of Axel Stefan Beckert (aka abe or XTaran) who thought, he would never start blogging... (He also once thought, that there is no reason to switch to this new ugly Netscape thing because Mosaïc works fine. That was about 1996.) Well, times change...

He was born 1975 at Villingen-Schwenningen, made his Abitur at Schwäbisch Hall, studied Computer Science with minor Biology at University of Saarland at Saarbrücken (Germany) and now lives in Zürich (Switzerland), working at the Network Security Group (NSG) of the Central IT Services (Informatikdienste) at ETH Zurich.
