Toilet paper: Over, under, or who the fuck cares, because it’s just toilet paper?
Update: I’m very amused that this is the most comments I’ve gotten in a while. You people are funny.
So! I’m actually a mix between “who cares?” and “over”. In my current apartment, definitely “over”, because the toilet paper holder is recessed into the wall, and if it’s over, it’s infinitely easier to get out. On a non-recessed holder, either is fine, although if I load it, it goes over.
Jenn occasionally loads it wrong. I switch it, but as of yet I haven’t run screaming down the hallway shrieking like a banshee because she’s a horrible excuse for a human being due to the toilet paper issue. I mean, she’s still a horrible excuse for a human being, but it’s got nothing to do with toilet paper…
Totally hear ya on this one. I’ve never cared which way it goes, as long as there’s something there. My ex used to have hissy fits about it. I never did get the hang of which way he wanted it.
Agreed: who the fuck cares!
Oh, I didn’t actually state my opinion. I have one. I was going to see how other people chime in before mentioning mine. :)
Over.
Over!
Oh then:
Who the fuck cares
Over, there is no other way for it to hang. :D
Under. You quickly learn that when you live with a small child.
Jer: But you don’t live with a small child. :)
Over, you dirty hippie!
I’ve with Yvonne, and against all the anal retentive over-opinionated ones. Wait, does that make me over-opinionated and anal retentive?
Donna – I don’t now, but I used to. Seeing a giggling 3 year old on the floor amid an emptied roll of tp, while cute, becomes tiresome the third time it happens.
I don’t care if it’s over or under, just DECIDE and keep it that way, so when I’m going to the bathroom in the middle of the night without turning the lights on, I can get my few squares without having to actually wake up my brain. Damnit, I hate scrabbling about in the dark with the toilet paper roll.
Also, what is it about under that prevents a three year old from having a fun day with the TP?
And for a third comment in as many minutes… my housekeepers will fold the top sheet of my TP into a little triangle if I load it “over” so I think that’s my preference, if I had to choose one.
I’m in the “who the fuck cares” category.
Jer: Odd, I don’t live with a small child, but I’m quite well acquainted with one. I don’t think she ever went to town with the toilet paper. Still, I didn’t think that over or under would stop a determined 3 yr old from wrecking havoc….
I did used to live with a couple of mischievous cats who would destroy any toilet paper left on the roll regardless of the direction. That was fun. :)
Oh, just for that I’m loading it backwards every single time. No wait, better idea – I shall stop loading it altogether,and hang cat toys from the empty roll instead. Ha!
That’s okay. Because, as mentioned, you’re a horrible excuse for a human being. ;)
I think the more relevant issue is are you a scruncher or a folder? This is important!
