Conan O'Brien angrily shares his best toilet paper life hacks
Watch Next

Conan O'Brien, like the rest of the late night hosts, is currently cooped up at home practicing coronavirus social distancing measures. But, also like the other hosts, he's not about to let that stop him from speaking to the people.

"Lot of people right now are worried about toilet paper," says O'Brien, with his usual hectic energy. "People are going to stores, and they seem to want more toilet paper than they could ever use in a six-year period, if they had continual diarrhoea. And now it's gone. It's all gone, and people are panicking."

O'Brien's solution? Make use of the random objects you have lying around — everything from long receipts to old t-shirts bearing his name.

There's a lot of information in the video above, but it's O'Brien's demonstration of how to wipe using a baseball cap that'll really stick with you.
