My wife is naturally under. I'm over. Early in the relationship I put on the toilet paper pants in the family and put my foot down on the issue. On condition of moving in together, my main request was that she change her toilet-paper-hanging ways. No joke! In the years since our marriage she has faltered twice. Yes, I counted. Sometimes my stepdaughter hangs it upside down in "the kid bathroom". Upon noticing, I promptly "fix" it. She knows how I feel about it and surely just does it to be rebellious or out of some sentimentality towards more independent days of fatherless yore.
I like it over because I like to see what's coming at me. When ya gotta go, ya gotta go and when ya wanna wipe you don't want to fish (oops ) around blindly beneath the roll for that unseen edge. When torn off properly (from the over method), the edge is always visible for the next pull. When torn from below it just hangs down to some indeterminable level or even gets rolled to the dreaded, unseen back edge! Who has time for feeling around for toilet paper these days? I got mantids to feed.
And turn on the fan! C'mon people!
LOL...great topic. It hasn't been a year since Roxanne and I googled "toilet paper etiquette"!
