It is known, even though not entirely accurate as a historical fact, that when Thomas Crapper invented the Flush Toilet (incorrect) created a mass produced product to be used as a Flush Toilet (correct). Individuals were now more regularly passing motions in their unnatural posture.

The unnatural posture results in a partial excrement, leaving waste within the Bowel and hence increased needs to clean the Bowel with a wipe.

Wipes in the excess used today are pretty much a growing market for approx' 150 years in the western world. People in general are very concerned about the cleanliness of such a area on the body, it is not uncommon to domestic use packages of Wipes being sold as 36 x Rolls, not running out is a dominating  factor in the minds of the average individual. Suggest Supplies of Wipes are to be threatened and that is an equivalent to a unavoidable Armageddon.

 The difference between a Typical Hoarder and a Hoarder of Wipes used as a cleaning aid following a use of a Toilet. Is that the Typical Hoarder can't bear the thought of parting with their hoarded goods. Where as the Wipe Hoarder can't wait to diminish their Hoard and get out and replenish it to the quantities funds will allow for. 

Apparently COSCO have substantial sized Packages of Wipes immediately ready to be added to the trolley, as this settles the shopper, and makes them more at ease with the purse strings being opened as they are routed through the Store.

If an individual is fortunate enough to collect / hoard items that are appreciating in value, heirs of such collections will say:

"Even though he was an eccentric hoarder, he was also a Wise Investor. Aren't I lucky the Wealth was not left to the local Cat Rescue Charity.  God Bless for putting me in the Will, they won't be needing any of it anymore. Shame I have a expensive Item to find a buyer for, Cash would have been better". frown
