Didn't look at the calculator, but from personal experience, double the answer if you're on antibiotics.

^^^
Avoid the Zero nozzle until all other options are exhausted. I'd strongly suggest starting with the soap nozzle but make sure you point it away, squeeze the trigger then aim for the brown eye. Not speaking from experience...

35 things you may, or may not, know about TP

1. The first recorded use of toilet paper was in 6th Century China.

2. By the 14th Century, the Chinese government was mass-producing it.

3. Packaged toilet paper wasn't sold in the United States until 1857.

4. Joseph Gayety, the man who introduced packaged TP to the U.S., had his name
printed on every sheet.

5. Global toilet paper demand uses nearly 30,000 trees every day.

6. That's 10 million trees a year.

7. It wasn't until 1935 that a manufacturer was able to promise Splinter-Free Toilet
Paper.

8. Seven percent of Americans admit to stealing rolls of toilet paper from hotels.

9. Americans use an average of 8.6 sheets of toilet paper per trip to the bathroom.

10. The average roll has 333 sheets.

11. Historically, what you use to wipe depended on your income level.

12. In the Middle Ages, they used something called a gompf stick, which was just an actual stick used to scrape.

13. Wealthy Romans used wool soaked in rose water, and French royalty used lace.

14. Other things that were used before toilet paper include hay, corn cobs, sticks,
stones, sand, moss, hemp, wool, husks, fruit peels, ferns, sponges, seashells,
knotted ropes, and broken pottery (ouch!).

15. 70-75% of the world still doesn't use toilet paper because it is too expensive
or there is not sufficient plumbing.

16. In many Western European countries, bidets are seen as more effective and
preferable to toilet paper.

17. Colored toilet paper was popular in the U.S. until the 1940s.

18. The reason toilet paper disintegrates so quickly when wet is that the fibers
used to make it are very short.

19. On the International Space Station, they still use regular toilet paper, but it
has to be sealed in special containers and compressed.

20. During Desert Storm, the U.S. Army used toilet paper to camouflage their tanks.

21. In 1973, Johnny Carson caused a toilet paper shortage. He said as a joke that
there was a shortage, which there wasn't, until everyone believed him and ran out to buy up the supply. It took three weeks for some stores to get more stock.

22. There is a contest sponsored by Charmin to design and make wedding dresses out of toilet paper. The winner gets $2,000.

23. There was a toilet paper museum in Wisconsin, The Madison Museum of Bathroom Tissue, but it closed in 2000.

24. The museum once had over 3,000 rolls of TP from places all over the world,
including The Guggenheim, Ellis Island, and Graceland.

25. There is still a virtual toilet paper museum called Nobody's Perfect.

26. In 1996, President Clinton passed a Toilet Paper Tax of 6 cents per roll which
is still in effect today.

28. The most expensive toilet paper in the world is the Portuguese brand, Renova.

29. Renova is three-ply, perfumed, costs $3 per roll, and comes in several colors
including black, red, blue, and green.

30. The CEO of Renova came up with the idea for black toilet paper while he was at a Cirque du Soleil show.

31. Beyonce uses only red Renova toilet paper.

32. Kris Jenner uses only the black Renova toilet paper.

33. If you hang your toilet paper so you can pull it from the bottom, you're
considered more intelligent than someone who pulls it from the top. (Wonder how this was determined?)

34. When asked what necessity they would bring to a desert island, 49% of people said toilet paper before food.

35. Queen Elizabeth II wipes her royal bottom with silk handkerchiefs. Wonder if the royal chambermaid gets to wash those?
