Rollaphobia: The reluctance to change or dispose of empty loo rolls.

Does anyone else suffer form this?
How did you overcome "Rollaphobia"?

There are literally everywhere in my bathroom.




Please note: This isn't a real thing, its just for fun form a TV advert lol

    Well you can make lots of fun crafts with them. I hate clutter...I throw everything away. My husband also has a thing for recycling he will use the last of it or throw away a roll that isn't completly empty. I wish he would be like that with all the crap in his man room.

    Speaking of crafts...I forgot to add you can make a shank out of them if you ever find yourself in prison.

    Haha, every man has to have something filled with crap XD my OH isn't so bad, but my dad, has so much its never end lol.

    I sometimes give the rolls to my brother, then they end up in the living room for months on end instead of the bath room lol

    I don't suffer from it but my grown up sons have had it for years!!! I found myself chuckling away the first time I saw the advert as i now know that there is a name for this strange affliction that my sons have and also that it must be very common if they have decided to turn it into an advert.

    I'm actually saving them right now to use as seed starters. Wanna send them my way? ... No, just kidding, we make plenty of them ourselves.

    My kids seem to like to make telescopes or wet, tear and shape them before putting them on the radiator to dry.

    I have a phobia of rolls hanging over my jeans. Maybe that's called "Muffintopphobia" though.
