Someone apparently either is too cheap to take a crap, or they’re up to no good. Either way, Government officials in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin are on the lookout for the “toilet paper thief”…I guess the only advice for those of you needing to use the loo there is BYOP (Bring Your Own Paper).

This one courtesy of CNN comes to us from the cheese state of Wisconsin…The nickname of the state fits the criminal quite well I might add in that he or she is definitely cheesy:

FOND DU LAC, Wisconsin (AP) — Someone is either too cheap to buy his own toilet paper or planning a big prank.

Fond du Lac County Executive Allen Buechel said someone has been repeatedly stealing toilet paper from the men’s public bathrooms at the Fond du Lac City County Government Center since June.

Buechel suspects the person comes in once or twice a week around midday and gets about six rolls a week from dispensers. Some rolls weren’t even full, he said.

The thefts haven’t been a big loss.

“We don’t buy the best toilet paper,” Buechel said.

He expects the thief to get caught. “Someone is going to walk in on him when he’s doing it and we’ll catch him,” he said.

Courthouse officials are on the lookout for suspicious activity.

County sheriff Capt. Dean Will didn’t return a call for comment Friday.

P.S. I never thought I’d ever have to create a category for Toilet Paper, this is definitely a reason to “LOL”.
