an exciting new use for an ordinary object

A coworker and I were chatting about this and that as we washed our hands in the ladies room. Then she did something I've never seen before.  She went back into one of the bathroom stalls and retrieved one of the tissue paper toilet seat covers. She proceeded to use it to wipe her face. Perhaps I looked a little stunned, because she offered an explanation, "It's just like the tissues you can buy at the store to mop the oil from your face." I see.
