Recycle By Making Your Own Toilet Paper
A Japanese company has created a machine that recycles paper by turning it into toilet paper.
Years ago, we were promised paperless offices but alas, it doesn’t look like the ol’ pen and pad are going anywhere any time soon. Despite the recent advances in technology such as electronic book readers and the promising future of tablet computing, almost nothing has the ease, reliability and durability of pen and paper. Talk to any lawyer and they’ll confirm that paper isn’t going away any time soon.
A Japanese company has created a novel machine that helps recycle paper by turning it into toilet paper. While the paper’s softness is up for debate, the imagination runs wild with jokes about using last week’s memo or a disliked co-worker’s email to clean up.
The machine, aptly named “White Goat” takes regular 8.5” wide (letter or legal) paper or pre-shredded paper and automatically pulps and rolls it. It takes approximately 30 minutes and 40 sheets of paper to create one roll of toilet paper.
Oriental Co. says the machine saves approximately 60 trees per year. The only issue: The machine costs approximately $100,000 USD making it the most expensive toilet paper you’ve ever used.
Still, I could see it as a novelty, somewhere.

Very funny but not very practical.
You have to hand it to those
Japanese inventors though.
Could we form a TP Club, to purchase one machine for the entire club. I really resent the overpriced poor quality mini rolls sold at grocery stores.
Are you for real? “Mini rolls?” Just how big is your ass?
“Mini rolls”???? Seriously!?
Will ask for one of these next Christmas.
Maybe the inventor could come up with an invention to stop his own people from killing our whales ie: substitute for their greed.
…and the dolphins.
Watch out for staples! lol :D
HMMMM, Let me see if I can figure this out by per DUMP. No Bad idea, each person is different by per dump and times per dump each day. That old saying,,Hmmm, does a bear crap in the woods is starting to give me an idea. But theres no woods here and many people also don’t live by woods or a forest. BUT we do have many neighbors with backyards and gardens which if you train your body right to go only at night most of your neighbors are sleeping. And if you spread your dumps out by not going in the same yard always they won’t notice, in fact they might even grow bigger veggies.Now this of course is a serious subject since the machine cost 100000$ which is a big LUMP sum in itself. I am only writing this to try and help my fellow man since I know money is tight these days and even the price of toilet paper is very high, especially if you treat your butt with cottenelle or another smooth touch to the booty type paper. If 4 couples each put in 25000$ it might be worth it I have to figure that out still. Problem is that machine looks quite big and my bathroom would not beable to fit it in. Could put it in the living room and pass it off as a computer I am not sure. If anyone else has a solution to this butt wiping problem please write to asses galore. pee pee.com I must be really bored this morning,ah let me go take a good crap, hope I have toilet paper?
I could see this being the next purchase for the large corporations … hmmm they will never be able to piece together our shredded documents
Denise you missed out on a great pun…..
These corporations are scared sh*tless to have their shredded docs pieced back together….
LOL
I think that they would be the only ones able to afford this machine. Write it off as a security device….
