The great toilet paper poll

In My Humble Opinion
21

Ah, yes. I used to be one of these people, then I went through a klutz period and kept knocking rolls into the toilet.
For me, right now, I follow the 1A, 2A combination. 1A because it’s how I prefer it and 2A because my mother always bought the harshest TP in the world growing up and I still enjoy being able to choose my own - and that means Charmin (not the ultra though, just the regular).

22

1 a.

2 none of the above. I take a roll of whatever there is at work.

23
  1. a
  2. b
24

  1. A There are other ways?

  2. A (but if I’m really broke, C)

25
  1. b
  2. a & c (two-ply, whatever’s on sale)

I for one don’t like Charmin. I’ve always been a Quilted Northern gal. My ex-bf’s family used Charmin, and it really does leave behind lint balls, especially if you’re a girl and you shave down there (but not frequently enough to be totally smooth all the time).

26

Errrr…

You people do realize that Charmin is one-ply, don’t you? It may be “extra soft” but it’s still one-ply and hence prone to the old “poke through” problem.

And I can’t believe that I am the only person so far that hangs the toilet paper the correct way. What is wrong with you people???

Ok, if you say so. I never pay that much attention to what ply my toilet paper is (obviously).

28

  1. The JoeK way. Have to keep the rolls up and away from the little one otherwise it ends up unfurled off of the 4th floor balcony (she claims to be fishing). Though finger insertion varys - index and middle here, concept is the same.

  2. C usually. I’ve never seen ply factor mentioned here. Odd.

29

Charmin Ultra is most definitely 2-ply, unless the roll in my bathroom is an unrepresentative sample. And you might want to consider the possibility that the guy who episodically experiences bloody diarrhea might know whereof he speaks with regards to the resistance of tp to “poke through.” :wink:

  1. a (having it hanging over the top is just so much easier to grab, y’know?)

  2. a, c (the one-ply isn’t thick enough!)

31

  1. a

  2. b

And i’m with Joe K on the brand–Scott single-ply 1000 is my skid of choice.

32

Nope, it’s not an unrepresentative sample. Of Charmin Ultra, that is. I was talking about good old regular Charmin, however. Sorry – I should have been more specific.

Real men use burlap.

34

Well, this would explain John Wayne’s walk.

35

A

and

C

36

Single ply is a waste of time. Around here we use the yellow pages.

37

  1. a

  2. a

Because I’m the mom and I say so. That’s why.

38

  1. a (if you have a condensation problem, this keeps the TP away from the wall).

  2. a

39

I did that once. Very depressing; it’s about the worst way you can waste perfectly good toilet paper.

  1. A. and I “fix” it if someone else puts it on “wrong,” too. I’ve owned cats my entire life, and I’ve yet to have the problem b defenders claim in most polls of this sort. What’s the cat doing in the bathroom, anyway? :smiley:
  2. A. every one ply I’ve ever used has felt rough.
