Which way do you like your Toilet Paper?

[Sky]

I like my toilet paper to run on the top side of the roll on the holder. I hate it when it runs down the wall, this is a pet peev of mine and want to know what others think.

 

[illflem]

What holder?!!! I keep my TP on a 2x4 on the outhouse wall with a coffee can over it to keep it dry.

Boy this forum gets weirder all the time. I mostly just like it to be there when I need it. But I prefer it rolling outward from the top. Paul Harvey did a spot on this years ago. Apparently someone did a study. Probably government funded. If you liked it outward you were more likely to be macho. If inward you were probably female or a poofter.

This is a famous Archie Bunker argument. Over the top is more convienent, but if you have a cat, you might want to have it come off the back so that he doesn't unroll the whole thing for you.

Sky,

Have you been hanging out with Doc? This is the stuff he comes up with!



By the way, isn't over the top the ONLY way to fly?

LOL I have another one too, but I think ill wait a bit on that one.



I do prefer over the top, but back side is good sometimes too.

I do mine backwards, for the reason Klenger suggests. . . my cat can unwind an entire roll in less than 60 seconds

With 5 kids, I'm just grateful to have toilet paper anywhere within reach in the bathroom.



Of course, it has to be kept off the floor. My cat take almost perverse delight in shredding rolls of TP. He can turn one into confetti in less than 5 minutes. I mean, utterly shredded, in a scattered pile, all over the floor.



The frustrating part... I can't spank him and make him pick it up.



I guess that's why the kids learned not to do that and he hasn't.

OVER THE TOP



I to had to double check who posted this... . thought th DOC was in da house

 

[migraineman]

Do you crumple or fold it before use?



Do you look at it after use?



Other pertinent questions. .

Oh gasp! I can't bear to look. But I have to. I only use four squares at a time so my kids will have enough to make huge crumpled wads for each run through the copier. They are so wasteful. I like the roll to run off the bottom for the simple reason that when the roll is new, it hangs up in the recessed holder rolling off the top. Rolling it off from the bottom pulls it away from the wall and eliminates that problem. Butt, my wife has a "pet peev" and it must roll off the top so she doesn't have a tizzy. Therefore I am macho by insistance of the Mrs! And I fold my four squares. Have you no dignity?

 

[klenger]

I saw a demonstartion on how to get by with one square.



1) Fold the square in half.

2) Fold it in half again the other way.

3) Tare a small piece of paper out of the corner where the two folds meet (the middle of the sheet).

4) Do your thing with the full sheet.

5) Use the small piece from step 3 to clean under your finger nails.



Top that one Doc.

OK Doc Sky - I see you're taking over with the weird posts.



My toilet paper never gets put in the holder - It sets on end, on top of the holder. That way I can hold it in my finger and spin off a few hunderd sheets at time. I hate it when I knock the roll off the holder though, since it falls in the dirt and gets all gritty.



Anyone ever put fiberglass insulation in the roll of TP to get back at someone?



Doc

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

Whoa

What is this "Toilet Paper" you speak of??

 

[Doc Tinker]

Gitchesum's avatar shows him looking through that hole Klenger 's talking about. It's him looking to be sure he got it all.

LOL also, when you "wipe" do you stand up or do keeps sitting?

 

[WOWZY]

I like for my toilet paper to drag effortlessly during the wipe and for my finger not to poke through, I use a handful. It ensures that my fingernails stay clean



I keep a special roll of Northern Quilted in the closet for those post bad liquor episodes with me running to the bathroom every 5minutes the day after. After the 5th trip the normal dragging technique is nonexistant and I have to employ the patting technique.



The patting technique can also be used after the Gut Grenades of Hamburger Helper w/ Daves Insanity Sauce detonate.

LOL o yes the morning after a night of a 40oz of vodka and mt. dews ( very good drink by the way ) can be deadly.
