Baby wipes are really useful to just have sitting in your car, and next to your bed for those lucky enough to have nocturnal company.

    To anyone wondering why: they're more akin to large cotton pads than toilet paper. They don't break down.

    Over time it's like flushing a bag of t-shirts and wondering why your pipes get clogged. Draino ain't fixing that.

    Just to expand on that municipal sewage gets clogged by them because they turn into rock after some time and need to be removed with a jackhammer. Can also happen on a smaller scale before it reaches the municipality and then it's on you.

    Learned this shortly after our first kid. Baby wipes have a million uses. For generic cleaning, cheaper is better, as they won't cover your car in lotion.

    Just make sure they're disposed of properly.
