Objects get me upset sometimes, but I can be very patient with people.
Luckily for me, even objectionable people. :biggrin:

Danger had a little lamb,
He tied it to a pylon.
Ten thousand volts went through its fleece,
And turned its wool to nylon.

It is pretty all-purpose stuff. Being trapped in a bathroom for the last three years I've had lots of time to practice my toilet paper art.

I suppose that in a post-apocalyptic society, the only art treasures that would have any practical purpose would be origami.
