minus-squaredeegeese@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up57arrow-down2·3 months agoOh sweet summer child, paper towels used to only come in large square sheets. These smaller “select a size” didn’t become common until around the year 2000.

minus-squareradix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17·3 months agoOnly 3 options? Does Brawny think it’s illegal to grab 3/4 of a sheet?
minus-squareRattlerSix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·3 months agoWhy only the one half? What if I want the other half?
minus-squarecazssiew@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·3 months agoNo, you must always throw the other half away.

minus-squaresik0fewl@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 months agoThis picture clearly demonstrates that the original picture is, in fact, select-a-size since they are 1/2 size instead of full size.
minus-squareCrayonRosary@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·2 months agoThat’s not select-a-size. That’s just tiny ass paper towels. Select-a-size towels have no perforations and you cut them with scissors.

Or 5/4, 6/4, 7/4,…
Why only the one half? What if I want the other half?
No, you must always throw the other half away.
