Mines just a roll of duct tape.

Good you clarified that. I mistakenly assumed it was tp.  :facepalm:
its o.k. It happens to a lot of people. :D

A lot of people mistake duct tape for toilet paper? That doesn't seem like the kind of mistake you'd make twice.

You're right.  No matter how many times you try and repair something with toilet paper it never seems to work. :-\

Actually that is wrong. I build tubes for my hamsters out of toilet-paper (no not the rolls, the paper). Basically, what you do is take one of those long tubular balloons, wrap it with wet paper, then put it in the oven and dry the paper (the balloon of course bursts). You can get awesome tubes like this. So if the hamster gnaws through and you want to fix it, simply add a couple of layers of wet toilet paper dry it and voila its fixed.

QED, toilet paper can be used to fix "stuff" :D
It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

By way of contrast, my favourite place to store duct tape is a not insubstantial distance from my butt.

Anyway, having helped derail things somewhat, I should probably try to build new rails by telling you all that my new avatar is from my very early days in the webcomic movement -- back before any of us had discovered shame.

Actually, never mind. Not much has changed since 1999.

It is a Huntsman spider.

From time to time they show up in your house
And sometimes in your car (often above the sun visor)

They are pretty harmless - But seem to shock most people - Can't think why  :o

It seems every single time I read something about Australian fauna, I'm grateful for living in a colder region... (That said, I never hurt spiders. If they're somewhere they shouldn't, I just carry them outside. I was told as a kid it was bad luck killing spiders, and knowing a little more as an adult, it seems it was good advice (given what species we get here).)
