OVER OVER OVER OVER OVER

Only communists go under, and that's because TP is such a rare commodity that they don't know any better.

After losing an six-pack of TP during the introduction of my most recent terrorist cat, I will fight for my right to have under-oriented toilet paper.

Yes, it's a bit more difficult and counter-intuitive. That's the point.

I also don't own any valuable tchotchkes after losing a few while he learned about the pleasures of gravity.

One day I will be able to own nice things again.

Over all the way.

We don't have toilet paper here. We use the toilet brush instead. ;-)

I'm appalled that you didn't ask about our preferred toilet paper color. It reveals a lot more.

As an ex goth chick, I use only black, with the occasional skull & bones.

actually, as a some-time house cleaner, I have to say it depends on the person and where the roll dispenser is situated. Most dispensers that are built into a tile wall are situated rather low to the floor which means if you put it over then most people can still reach and grasp the tail easily and tearing will usually go against the upper part of the dispenser.

However, if a dispenser is higher up, or on a dispenser that doesn't have a compartment for the roll, tearing from an over position easily pulls the roll out rather than tearing whereas under is more likely to actually tear.

The main point is, when you are done tearing, the tail should be in a place to grasp easily. With a low dispenser (most homes have low dispensers) Over is easier. With a high dispenser, under is actually easier.

Me? I don't have my paper on a roll. I have it in a special basket.

I answered "over," thought tbh the only real answer is "three shells." And yeah, I carry my own.

Which way is the right way to orient the toilet paper roll?

I have actually heard a toilet paper exec explain this on the radio. The official answer is.......over.

The evidence for this is that on patterned toilet paper, the pattern is printed in a way that it will only show if the TP is over. If it is under, the pattern will be on the wrong side.

What kind of paper?

[blue-mangos.livejournal.com]

*checks answer list to see which 7 of you I will not be inviting to my house*

Don't be touching my toilet paper set-up!

[korean-guy-01.livejournal.com]

I'm disappointed that "I know how to use the three sea shells" isn't an option.

I hate having toilet paper on a roller.

Is this a TP post about TP?

[sophia-sadek.livejournal.com]

I respect the way that other people configure their TP when I visit. I personally do not like an under-hang, but I understand why people prefer it.

Over, with one exception. It's over so it's easier to get the paper from a standing position. The exception is if you have a toddlers and a cat in a small place. The toddler will have right fun with the toilet paper if it's over, but of course the only reason you would be leaving the toilet door open in the first place would be because you had no other option but to have the cat litter tray in there.

I've had this discussion before.
