Not TOO long ago I got off of a 5 year live in relationship. We went through TP like there was no tomorrow!! The number of emergency runs I had to make while she was “drip drying” is excessive. I ALWAYS got blaimed for the excessive usage and you know I denied and counter-attacked with the best of the males. Now for the stretch of time I find myself single. I also find myself going through JUST UNDER one double roll of TP per week.
So I ask you… comparativly speaking… is my TP usage excessive? 
i use at least one a week and its just me by myself. I like to think of it as “thorough”, not “excessive”. 
My answer is enough to clean my ass and that varies at times…if you say you hardly use toilet paper dont come sit by me please cause I bet you smell like boo boo.
Well this answer depends on what kind of tissue is being used. I haven’t sat down and worked the math, but Charmin never lasts longer even if its a double roll. I find that Scott tissue lasts much longer than any other leading name brand. No, its not as cushy, but its not as rough as a corn cob either. 
In our house, we go through a little under a roll a day.
Hell’s bells, man, are you making a papier mache Mt. Rushmore? One roll of Scott[the best kind, I might add] lasts approximately 4 weeks, and that’s for a single user-me.
as for smelling like boo boo, gotti, I don’t believe Yogi or Mr. Ranger ever complained.
I have to ask: is it…quilted?
My grandmother goes through a little over 1 roll a day by herself. So you’re at about 0.3 Rosies. Not too bad.
I just bought 70 rolls yesterday. I’d snag another 70 today if I could.
I’m not an expert in this field, just your average consumer, but I believe that if you think you’re using too much; you’re using too much.
If there are tire tracks in your underwear; you’re not using enough. :eek:
Your username is false advertising, then.
Plain,white, unadorned, unmedicated, unscented, and mercifully unquilted, the way the good Og intended it to be.
Might I humbly suggest that “rolls per week” or similar is a very imprecise measure if an objective is to compare usage habits. Few, if any, posters have specified (i) number of members of household; (ii) frequency of visits; (iii) any other special conditions.
How about defining a run-rate by stating “sheets per :rolleyes: … session”?
I confess to using about 8 on average - double-folded (to avoid finger-breakthrough misery) so roughly four passes. Thorough, maybe, but don’t call me obsessive. Of course individual fluctuations occur, but I don’t think anyone would want me to go there.
On the other hand, if there’s blood on the paper, you’re using too much.

The More You Know
My username is gluteus maximus, not anus maximus!
Using what too much?
Well, there are two of us in my household, and I get whatever decent double rolls are cheapest that week (I currently have Charmin with Ripples).
We go through a six-pack every 2-3 weeks. I don’t think it’s excessive.
Tho’ when I lived in Austin and had 4-8 friends over every night, we went through a LOT more.
First time on my own, and it’s been 3 rolls in 2 weeks - but I do have irritable bowel syndrome, and really hairy buttocks, so ummmmm well imagine it yourselves 
When I was in college and living alone I once went five months on one roll of toilet paper. I don’t consider myself particualrly sparing of the paper, and I wasn’t so poor that it was a cost issue. I am just a man of habit. Once per day at 11am. My favorite toilet was the fifth floor library throne where I went to check my email after class.
I will admit that after a while my paper conservation became a private contest. I was a bit sad to see that last sheet spin into oblivion.
Not to start a whole 'nother “front or back loaded toilet paper” debate, but toilet paper should be wadded, not folded. Folding does not increase the surface area for efficient wiping like wadding does.
It also depends on what kind of food you regularly eat. Heavy Indian food or some oh-my-fucking-God-is-that-my-anus-on-fire Thai food? Then a roll a week seems about right.
