3. Toilet Paper
3.厕纸
Have you ever had to make an emergency pit stop at a gas station to use the bathroom? How about a bathroom at a fast food restaurant? School restroom? What do these places have in common? Coarse, one-ply toilet paper with the grit of an ultra-fine sandpaper. Lifes too shortspend the extra 25 cents per roll on the three-ply cushy stuff.
你是否曾紧急停车在加油站去上厕所？快餐店的卫生间怎么样呢？学校的厕所呢？这些地方的共同点是什么呢？粗糙的单层厕纸，还有超细砂纸上的颗粒。人生很短每卷多花25美分去买用起来很舒服的三层厕纸。

请了人来吃晚餐？去屠夫那儿吧。把切成方块的牛排留到周一晚吧，给客人奉上一块刀工好到可以隐藏你可能的烹饪失误的牛排吧。向屠夫提一堆问题他会给你完美的切法，来匹配你的场合和烤肉技术。

5. Condoms
5.避孕套
Its crass and people dont like talking about it, but its life. The regular brands of condoms supplied at dollar store (in California) go by the names of Trustex and Fantasies. Do you really want to put your trust in a product that has the word trust in the brand name?
这个话题有些粗鲁，人们不喜欢谈论，但这是生活。一元店里常见的避孕套品牌有叫信赖和幻想的。你真的想相信一个品牌名里有信赖一词的产品么？
