Texas Jack Black Posted September 8, 2024 Share Posted September 8, 2024 Over or under On the toilet paper do you hang the roll so that the paper comes off the top or from under and why. I think we need to start our winter fun early. Best Wishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted September 8, 2024 Share Posted September 8, 2024 I used to hang it under. My daughter always gave me hell. She insists it is supposed to go over. If she comes to visit she will complain about me having it wrong, and then when she changes the roll she has it over the top. But I gave up on all of that. I stand up. I thought everyone did. I was at my mother's one day and I noticed a gray stain on the left side of the toilet seat, and asked about it, and she said that it was from Daddy's watch band, when he wiped. I was shocked. He wiped while he was still sitting down??? But anyway, I stand up. Which means I've always had to bend over to reach the paper that's on the roll down there at seat level. Now I don't put it on the holder. Depending on whether there is a vanity in the bathroom or just a sink, I either put it on the top of the toilet tank or on the vanity. Since I am standing, this is easily reached. When my daughter visits the first thing she does is put it on the holder. I finally have her trained, though. She leaves the one I have sitting on the vanity alone, and puts another roll on the holder for her use. And she puts it over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're worried about your cats getting the paper towels, you need to do something about the cats walking on the kitchen counter. When it is hanging under, you can tear a sheet off with one hand. If it's hanging over, and you try to tear one off with one hand it unrolls. I hang it under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted September 8, 2024 Share Posted September 8, 2024 It depends on the placement of the holder. Whichever way it's easier to tear off one handed. Sometimes it's over, sometimes it's under. The people who get all dogmatic about it need to thank God that that's the most important thing they have to worry about.

For those who want it on the roller there’s one there and it’s over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
