Definitely a. Unless you have cats or small children (toddlers like to do the same thing as cats and you end up with the whole roll on the floor).
For those of you who choose (b) because you unroll too much otherwise, what’s your problem? If you can’t manage that much muscular control, you can always get a roll dispenser with a side-loading spring that puts a little friction on the roll. Or just put your knee against it as you pull off what you need. (In those cases where the dispenser is close to the knee, which seems to be often.)
I’m not going to conform to some lamo arbitrary rule just cause someone designed something wrong. If the industry made some tests I am positive it would be concluded that you use less energy if you hang your TP underhand.
And my TP is plain white. Same color/pattern/quilting on both sides. So there.
I had always assumed that men were B and women were A, as it’s easier to rip off a reasonable amount will sitting from position A, and easier to grab a square for the last drop if you’re standing and the paper is in position B.
Hmmm…seems like this would actually require effort in determining the way to put the roll on. Too much work for me, however it comes out of the package, it goes on the roll. Keeps life interesting, you never know how it’s coming out.
You’ve all got it wrong. Assuming you’re right-handed, it should be under-rolled if the dispenser is to the left of the toilet, and over-rolled if it’s to the right. Reverse if you’re left-handed. Alternate if it’s a month with an “r” in its name.
Actually T-paper should be rolled over the top and hang down the front. It keeps the paper off the wall should it unroll. Is less trouble to get a hold on it. AND most importantly it is designed that way. Many brands of t-paper are decorated with prints and/or patterns.
Many of these decorations have an up and down. All of the top/bottom prints and patterns are positioned for the paper to roll over the top to the front. Otherwise the decorations appear upside down.
This info was in an Ann Landers column many years ago.
Point #1) If you’re concerned about the designs on something you’re about to wipe your ass with, as Denis Leary would say, you have too much free fuckin’ time.
Point #2) It’s gotta be A. This allows for easy access to the exposed end of the paper. It’s easy enough to tear that way, really. The only acceptable time to change this rule is if you live with a cat. Of course, that you have a cat indicates you have bigger problems.
A all the way. I actually have muscular control, so I don’t suffer from unrolling too much. For those who do, squish the roll to crease the cardboard before you put in a new roll, and you’ll never unroll too much again.
