It's supposed to be over

Honestly, who the hell folds the end of the toilet paper roll like that?

Ms. Manners
 
Understand, I used to be a diehard over kinda guy, but over the last couple years, I've become enlightened to under. It works better for me, and I think it looks better.
 
Well, the title about says it all. Do you prefer your toilet paper put on so the roll hangs over, or under?

Serious question: did you start this exact topic here about 5+ years ago? I'm getting serious deja vu here. :eek:

I'm one of those rare beasts who's switched sides on this issue (quite literally, I suppose you could say). Used to be under, now over. Changed after living with someone who insisted on doing it that way, and even though I no longer do so, the new habit persisted. Guess that means I actually don't care much...

Wait. "Facing the tank"? Who does that?

You Euro types are always the last ones to catch onto the latest trends.

The whole point is to face the tank so you can use your laptop or steady your arms to use your smartphone while you get the job done.

It's been catching on Stateside for a few years now. .
Um...I'm not sure this is true.

Someone is going to make a fortune selling a foldaway desk for the bog.
 
Actually, I don't think I was on the boards five years ago, but I could be wrong. I just didn't want to check.
I also can't believe it is that original of a topic.
 
Under because it looks better? What the fuck is that?

It's all about functionality.

Also, just leaving an empty roll on there while leaving a loose roll hanging out elsewhere is just sad. I am a very lazy individual... but... if you're taking a shit, do you really have so many better things to do than to take 5 seconds and put the new roll on?

Please, *try* getting this through to my kids. I'll wait. :vulcan:
 
But there is no 'who gives a shit?' option? :p

On a high and mighty moment, the other day I bought the obligatory toilet paper and I realized how, well, assinine we are about having comfortable, soft, recycled tissue with which to wipe our asses. People are starving on this planet, man! and we are making billion dollar industries for our delicate tushies? We are a bit anal, aren't we and to relay Frosty from Aliens, I think we all must have corncobs stuck up our asses.

But anyway, over, under, whichever it happens to be, I don't care. And to think, we pay people to take the time to do those fan fancy fold things in hotels.
 
^Hell, my MOM puts those little folds on the rolls for her Christmas party guests.

I'm just trying to teach my husband to put the rolls ON the holder.

Screw over or under, how about just within reach? ;)


Bonus he no BROWNIE points if anyone can guess from what show I made this avatar!

Bidets are more hygienic and easier on those delicate areas, not to mention conserving paper. But a device that shoots warm water up your bum just seems a bit too decadent for us Yanks. Our hardy pioneer ancestors wiped their behinds with pages from last year’s Sears Roebuck catalog, dammit!
