A very important discussion re: toilet paper
 
The future of my relationship may depend on the results of this poll. LOL Please choose one and elaborate.

Gemma 03-02-2010 11:29 AM

Haha, I've had this conversation(debate, which I win every time) with my OH LOADS of times. He puts it over, I put it under!! :D :D

emmasmommy 03-02-2010 11:29 AM

it goes over. i will change it if it's not over, even if i do not know you and am at your house :p

Denise Umlauf 03-02-2010 11:30 AM

It's over. There's an explanation to it, but I can't remember why.. lol

cindys732003 03-02-2010 11:31 AM

Over, I think it's easier to find the end that way......

MommaTrish 03-02-2010 11:31 AM

over. its always been over and it always should be

DawnMarch 03-02-2010 11:32 AM

I totally do this too! LOL!
Yes. It goes over in my house.

g8rbeckie 03-02-2010 11:41 AM

this is so freakin' funny...I personally never thought about it, i just always put it under myself. But DH started giving me crap about it a few years ago (we've been married 10 years!). He now has our kids trained that the TP goes OVER. So the kids will come and hunt me down to tell me I did it wrong if it isn't over the top. It's become kind of a game at our house, LOL!!

lauren grier 03-02-2010 11:43 AM

i seriously do not care about these things :p

KristinCB 03-02-2010 11:43 AM

The only type A personality in this house is lucas.. i imagine when he gets old enough he will be one who wants it a certain way but right now hubby and I could care less. haha

LeeAndra 03-02-2010 11:44 AM

I never pay attention. I just stick it on and forget it. *gasp*

NeverendingJen 03-02-2010 11:49 AM

Over is the only option. I will change it(no matter who's house I am at) if it is wrong. lol

MandaT 03-02-2010 11:51 AM

its supposed to go on a holder?!?! We're a doesn't matter house.

aly321 03-02-2010 11:53 AM

DEFINTIELY over. If it is under it is hard to find the end, and the kids just keep pulling and pulling until the whole roll is gone. I honestly don't think we have ever had a discussion about it, so I don't think DH cares.

Melissa Bennett 03-02-2010 11:57 AM

Absolutely has to be over. I do not like scrapping the wall to try and get my toilet paper.

ajf9597 03-02-2010 12:02 PM

I'm an odd ball I guess, for me it's under

carriesmom 03-02-2010 12:03 PM

Over, just easier on many levels.

neenee 03-02-2010 12:05 PM

Over for sure. I don't like to have to tilt my head upside down to look for the end and/or spin it upwards to find it. Over is so much easier!

LibbysMommy 03-02-2010 12:05 PM

Hubby doesn't care - he puts in on however he feels like....if I see that it's under, it's changed to over in less than 1.7 seconds!! lol

But, if it's over, the kids call roll out the whole roll by just flipping it with their hand. LOL!

I do it over too, and since I'm the only one in my house who ever changes the toilet paper rolls, them my way is the right way. :)

Oh - those are great! :)

kresta 03-02-2010 12:12 PM

I used to be adamant about it being over, but my hubby doesn't care either way, so I started to not care either. And now, I find that when Sadie finds her way into a bathroom and starts to play with the t.p., it takes her longer to completely unroll the whole thing if it's under. :)

It has to be over... it was a deal breaker for my hubby... luckily, he use to design the machines that make toilet papers, so he, too, says over. But what really gets him totally excited is when he finds a roll that was made on his machine he worked on... Goodness, gracious! That is an engineer for you!

kscwgirl 03-02-2010 12:18 PM

Over. There is no other option.

mdb21 03-02-2010 12:19 PM

Over. It's the law.

Stacey42 03-02-2010 12:22 PM

If it manages to get on the holder inthe first place I call it good. I don't care what direction it is so long as it is not sitting on the dge of the sink waiting to fall in and get soaked when you wash your hands.

Yes! The kids and DH just take it out of the cupboard and put it on the counter somewhere. Since I'm the only one that actually puts it on the holder, it is always right. LOL

Definitely OVER!

livelys 03-02-2010 12:31 PM

Over every time - much less anoying. Took a little while for DH to learn though...

I do the exact same thing! This drives my mom crazy! LOL She should just do it right to begin with and she wouldn't have to worry about it. Right? :p

Definitely. And if I ever absolutely HAVE to use a public restroom (which must be a complete emergency because I do not like them at ALL), and it can be changed, I will change it there as well.

eloise24 03-02-2010 01:34 PM

I can't imagine worrying about it . . . there are so many bigger issues to deal with!

Robin Carlton 03-02-2010 01:44 PM

You guys are going to think I'm such a slacker after the christmas tree admission last week, but I'm lucky if the roll is actually ON the holder. Most of the time it's just sitting on the counter next to the potty.

Balinda 03-02-2010 01:49 PM

over in our house..that goes for the paper towels too.
You pull it toward you so I have always figured it should hang down closest to ya.

scrappurple 03-02-2010 02:36 PM

Over all they way ... I HATE trying to find the beginning of the roll under or behind the roll of paper. End up getting it all over a dirty floor and then I am supposed to use it?!? YUCK. You asked to elaborate ... ;)

That's why we squish our roll before putting it on..that way it has that little whomp whomp whomp when you unroll it so our 6yo doesn't unroll it..no matter which way it's put on.

My peeve..even bigger than those not putting it over...are those who don't put it on a roll at all. I hate community TP on the back of the tank or in a basket. It's a weirdness I have...I hate it.

nikkiARNGwife 03-02-2010 02:42 PM

Over...although right now we don't put any of ours on the holder b/c if I do Avery will unroll every drop of it onto the bathroom floor..he does it every time. In fact my MIL was keeping him one day and she put a new roll on the holder at some point during the day and when I got home she told me she realized now why my toilet paper was never on the holder lol. I mean he will unroll a FULL roll until there is a mountain in the middle of the floor..and it doesn't matter how much trouble he gets in..he'll do it again. I think it's just too much temptation for one little boy to handle :)

I may have to try the squishing thing though :)

krystalhartley 03-02-2010 02:44 PM

You mean it actually gets placed on the holder in your house? :D

OVER is the way it's done here.

Nutmeg 03-02-2010 02:54 PM

It has to be over...my mother changes it to under every chance she gets and it drives me crazy!

Emmy 03-02-2010 02:58 PM

If we don't place it on the holder it invariablly gets dropped in the toilet. Happened again just yesterday. Good times.....:blink:

I reckon the rest of 'em are the oddballs :D Under, all the way here!

We don't put our upstairs one on the holder cos DS (19mths) stands there and unravels it til it's all gone, so it's kept out of his reach. And when I pick it up, the end has to be facing to the right...DH keeps putting it down backwards and it drives me nuts :D :D

Leila 03-02-2010 03:32 PM

Definitely under! This was an issue in our house until I hid the rollers. Now the TP sits on the counter.:thumbup:

coopert 03-02-2010 03:35 PM

Over is easier to find the end.
