> Let me run an idea by you guys...

> 1. Tearing toilet paper is melacha

> 2. Melacha is forbidden on chol hamoed

> 3. One of the permits for doing melacha is for tzorech hamoed, but in this
> case, if possible you should do the melacha before the chag

> 4. Therefore, you should tear toilet paper for 7 or 8 days before the
> beginning of Pesach and Sukkot.

> 5. If you find yourself on chol hamoed without pre-torn toilet paper, you
> can tear it, however preferably not on the lines.

> Am I crazy?
