Toilet paper-Over or Under?
« on: October 07, 2016, 06:18:27 am »
I have had many discussions with people over the years about which way to install a roll of toilet paper (I think maybe I need to get a life lol)
I am an "over" person. I think it looks better and I believe it unrolls better. Also, when you go to a hotel, it is over and the end is usually folded to a point.
What are your thoughts?

It's funny you ask this.  We have different ways of doing it.  My husband is like you, over....me on the other hand under.  Whenever you go to any of the bathrooms you can always tell who changed the roll.

I agree - definitely "over".  It seems when it's put on "under" the roll rolls faster and then you waste that much more!!!

I remember my mother telling me she and my dad had an argument on their wedding night over which way to do it.

Me, I am an over. When it is under, you often have to work to get it unrolled.

The toilet paper must absolutely be over. Anybody would puts it under needs to evaluate their life

I think over is helps with that taking too much. And when you miss place the roll holder, well, you just hand them a roll, than you don't have to worry about that bathroom problem.

I am also an over person.  I just feel that the toilet paper rolls off the cardboard tube better if it is in the over position.  The under position just seems backwards.

It's funny that you mentioned this, When we got married my wife told me "do you usually insert the toilet paper under this way?" I said, I usually don't think about and I am left handed so it would be easier for me if I am left handed. So she said well most people are right handed. So from then on if she puts it in then it's over if I put it in then it's under. So for me either way is right depending on what hand you use!!!

I put it on both ways. As long as I have it, I don't care which way it goes on.

   As long as the toilet paper does not jam the dispenser, up or down is OK with me.
