A middle fingered 'breakthrough' is always a disheartening occurrence.

So is a stopped-up toilet caused by maxing out on the 'multi-plys'.

The thickest softest stuff I can find. I have a dealer locally who sources the high end stuff out of Japan. $22 a roll but worth every penny even if I have to have a plumber come snake the lines ones a month.
