I am smarter than a roll of paper towels.

Well, I think my parents can sleep easily tonight knowing that whatever head traumas I endured as a child have not left me dumber than a roll of paper towels. It was a close call... but in the end, Nikki: 1, Paper towels: 0




First, I tried removing the used paper towel cardboard tube. But uh oh... it was stuck. Like, really stuck. Like, bang it against the counter while screaming a primal "hooooo haaaaaaaaaaaa" stuck.



Then, I thought... I'm smarter than a monkey. And a monkey would try to unscrew the top. But it turns out, monkeys are really stupid because what I ended up with was a tube with the paper towel holder top stuck in the top of it.



But unlike a monkey, I have money. Money which can buy me tools like scissors. So I managed to cut the cardboard tube, and thus releasing the top of my paper towel holder.



Finally: success. Paper towels in their appropriate holder. Now my parents have something to brag about along with the cats figuring out how to open the cabinet doors.
