Toliet Paper: Under or Over the roll

[KAknight]

I've been inspired by The Real Bingo and the polls he has been posting.

Do you prefer that the toliet paper hangs over the roll or under the roll.

Me, I can't stand it when the paper is under the roll. If I am at somebody else's house I will change it so it hangs over the roll.

What way do you perfer

[tony_j15]

OVER

its too hard to tear it when hanging under.

What?! No poll???

Next time I'll wait a minute before asking that question

[KAknight]

You are too quick tony. Poll is up.

[Prison Kids]

I am glad you asked this...

As a matter of fact, I am now trained to put the roll over (yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks). I used to be an under guy, but I was told that was grounds for divorce.

Small price to pay for a happy home.

I think a washable buffing pad on a belt driven system would do well,might burn a soft butt though

[Vagabond]

doesn't matter

[The Real Bingo]

I'm an inspiration? I'm flattered.

Over, definitely.

Under is the way to go and some day I'll take the time to prove it scientifically.

The scientific answer


"As far as being fashionable, the "over" position wins. I visited those nicer hotels (the ones that charge at least $24.95 overnight) and saw that they hung their roll with the paper dangling over the top and then they took the end sheet and folded it into this little fancy triangle. I don't rightly know what that triangle-sheet is for - seems like a waste to me, well, unless you tear off that end sheet and use it to clean out from under your fingernails while you finish your bidness or sumthin'.

If you have toddlers or cats, you should hang it in the "under" position - it doesn't unroll as easily.

If you have boys, by putting the roll in the "over" position, the paper is just begging to be used. This way, the boys will want to use it and you won't have to soak their drawers as long to get out their skid marks.

If you choose a print, you must hang it in the "over" position or the print on the paper will be upside down.

It is easier to grasp if the paper is in the "over" position, of course on the flip side, reaching to the back is just as easy - unless static cling makes the paper stick to the wall.

Standing men prefer the roll over-the-top. I didn't ask why. They scared me.

A physics professor in the "under" camp offered this analysis: To get the paper to turn requires a certain torque, which comes from the tension in the paper being withdrawn. The greater the distance between the plane of the paper being pulled and the axle support line, the less force is required and the less chance of tearing the paper before you have enough. Uh, yeah.

Several womenfolk told me that when they hung the roll in the "under" position, their men often got poop on their hands and then smeared it on the wall when they reached to the back for the edge of the toilet paper. "


I still say "over"

For some reason this is a general rule among women Dont ask me why this has come up with the lady friends but weird stuff comes up every now and then. All of em I have known say OVER or else

Over.

But I do wish I had a bidet. Just for .. you know... "kicks".

[Gait_Keeper]

Are you kidding? I say if you arent smart enough NOT to crap on your hands, you shouldnt be allowed to relieve yourself.
