There is a very strange contradiction concerning this issue, about which I have spent many an evening pondering. Now everybody who is anybody just KNOWS that toilet tissue is accessed from the bottom of the roll. It is a foregone conclusion, a fact of natural law, that is not to be trifled, or dismissed without serious consideration.

On the other hand, by that same law of nature, paper towels are accessed from the TOP of the roll. We know this for sure. In the case of printed paper towels, the designs are made to be seen only if the roll is accessed from above.

Well now.. I used to do the "over the top" thingy but the dang cat would sit on the toilet seat and unroll the whole thing into a big pile on the floor and then tear it to shreds. Amazingly, reversing the roll totally confounded the cat and now the roll just spins.. Wink

Me = 1
Cat = 0

The first time we ran out of toilet paper in the master bedroom of our current house, (we have been here 6 years) I started putting the roll on the toilet tank lid.

To the best of my knowledge, that empty roll on the dispenser is the original one via July 1997.

Squinney can't tell me because she won't share a bathroom with me, she shares with the two little cubs and me and the big cub each have our own. Confused

I guess when my youngest cub reaches puberty and becomes a man/bear/pig, we'll have to build a fourth bathroom Laughing

Toilet tissue must be accessible from the top in my house. Otherwise, I'm a basket-case.

On the rare occasion that I have to use Mom's bathroom, her tissue is accessible only from the bottom.....grrrrrrrrr......

As well as the paper-towels in the kitchen......grrrrrrr.....

fishin ~ even with Mom's bottom-accessible rule, Lacey (the cat) has still managed to maul two brand-new paper-towel rolls.....

Hence, the paper-towels are now kept underneath the sink.

From the TOP, only the top, always the top!!! That's how the dynamics of the paper unrolling works. When you yank it when it dispenses from the top, you tear it where you want it to tear. When you yank it when it dispenses from the bottom, you will send the roll spinning and end up with a heap of paper on the floor. Now the alternative could be using two hands, but come on, who has so much energy these days?

Over the top before I got Nermal and Barney. Looked all over town for one of the holders with a metal flap over the roll, but no luck. I don't think fishin's trick would work with these wonderkids. They attack from ground level.

Hi...One of the fine "legends" is that a major hotel chain had determined that -over the top- resulted in a significantly greater useage than the opposite placement. Somehow it seems logical to me, butt I sure wouldn't want to be the MBA to research the subject.

I just hate those toilet paper dispensers in public places where you can only get about two little squares at a time, and then the roll stops. What can you do with just two little squares? Laughing

Nothing, Phoenix.

You just try to stop a woman from getting more than two squares of tp when there's a full roll to be had..... Twisted Evil

Hey, this'll be funny to everyone but one.


Bear meets a rabbit in the woods.

Bear, "Do you know how to get **** off fur?"

Rabbit, "Sure".

Bear, "Good". Picks up rabbit and wipes his arse with it.
