Why in the world do people even put a roll of toilet paper on the under way? It's a million times farther away *and* it's right up against the wall!

we have no toilet roll holder, it sits on the bathroom radiator

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 10 July 2003 20:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Only an insane person installs the TP roll underhand.

Ed OTM.

Except I don't have a radiator. I have a por...er, magazine shelf.

this whole problem solves itself if you just hire a guy with a firehose to stand in your bathroom and help you out when you get done

OR you decide where you will keep the cup

Sane people fold the first sheet in the shape of a diamond for the next visitor.

they are crazy people, they probably buy 'soft' bog roll as well

some other sane people may create a fan-tailed dove for the next person and have a pechant for velveteen quilted luxury.

Some Ms. Manners type says to do it under. I'm not sure why. I do it depending on my mood. Then I realize I have a mood regarding such a thing and I weep.

Well, if you've got room in your bathroom for a bidet...

Oh, one argument for threading it under is that cats or dogs can't unroll it as easily as they can when it's over. Obviously this argument is of little use if you don't have a dog/cat/other pet that is inclined to treat toilet paper as a toy.

― j.lu (j.lu), Thursday, 10 July 2003 21:18 (twenty-three years ago)

There are no arguments for and against toilet paper anymore (dogs and cats accepted. All those in favour say aye.

― kayT (kaytee), Thursday, 10 July 2003 21:21 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm going to invent a pet-toy where you have a roll of cloth that re-rolls itself automatically when it's spun all the way out so the pet can have it again.

Toilet roll goes on cistern, where it's easy to manipulate. Guests sometimes do pseudo-favour putting shit-paper on pre-installed holder and get scorned for life.

In many countries they don't use toilet paper, they provide facilities for washing ones arse with soap and water, which is far better if you ask me.

Dogs and cats are accepted as toilet paper? I can't imagine my cats being terribly willing to co-operate with that.

― C J (C J), Friday, 11 July 2003 07:30 (twenty-three years ago)

They'll cooperate after being used as bait for giat catfish.

But then you have a wet bum, no? I don't think I'm ready for an air-powered ass-dryer.

have you seen japanese techno-toilets? Buttons for water, warm air, flush......

Ed, a multitude of things need to be done to our bathroom.

My mum used to find herself with trousers around ankles on the throne, with a lack of Charmin because her two kids could not be arsed to change the roll, ever. She would even call us into the bathroom for lessons but I can't remember if it wound up under or over, although she would laugh at the kind of person who would enpoint the end of the paper like in hotels or whatever. She had her revenge when my sister was held up at work and cuffed to the toilet roll holder by the robber. When my mum arrived at work, she found my sister gibbering in the bathroom, unable to release self from toilet roll holder. My mum saw this as karmic payback for all those years of Betsy not changing the roll, since if she HAD, she would never have been stuck like that.

Apparently there is a gender difference with loo roll hanging. Women are more likely than women to hang it with the paper rolling out against the wall.

― N. (nickdastoor), Friday, 11 July 2003 08:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Toilet roll holders are a frightfully infra-dig trailer trash invention. Like all civilised folks', my supply of toilet tissue rests upon the top of the cistern.

Ah, if only I could afford such a beautiful ornament.

Whoops - women are likely than men, I meant. I thought I had missed some dirty joke.

I've a friend who's got one of these. Alas, I've never taken it on a test drive yet.
