To avoid repetition I will call the loo roll cardboard
tubey thing "TLRCTT". Thanking your understanding
in
advance,
While trying to put some cookies down on a clean
surface in the kitchen, I saw a TLRCTT in a vertical
position and maneuvered them over it and...didn't
work.
Oddly enough,
the outer diameter of the cookies was
just smaller than the inner diameter of TLRCTT.
Why is there such a conspiracy between cookie
makers
and TLRCTT factory? Which one of them decided the
diameter first? What part, if any, do (hopefully
unused) TLRCTT play in the making or storing
cookies?

Good grief. Either you have enormous loo rolls or very
meagre cookies. |

It's also worth noting that, if you get the placement just right,
it is possible to stably balance ANY size of disc on top of ANY
vertical
hollow cylinder. Now go back and try again. |

You've eaten the bloody cookies, haven't you? |
|
|
No, I put them in a safe place, my stomach. |
|
|
But, somehow, without eating them? |
