Ongoing Battles of Will: The Toilet Paper Dilemma

The difference between this and other Ongoing Battles of Wills, is that this OBOW is the longest ongoing battle.  It is the longest because people are usually divided into 2 camps: the group that prefers the toilet paper to overhang, and the group that prefers the underhang.

I prefer the overhang.  I mean, it makes the most sense.  The end is easy to grab, the paper rolls smoothly, and it just looks nicer.  If you are so inclined you could do some neat little folds on the end and make your bathroom look like those in a fancy hotels.  Not that I have ever done that or anything...

ANYWAYS, the overhang is the best way to put the paper on the holder.  However, there are some in this household that would go out of their way to replace the roll in a counter-intuitive way.

The underhang is about obstacle-making.  In the first place, you have to turn it around before you put it on the holder.  The hanging part can be hidden, meaning you would have to turn the roll to find the end.  Who has that kind of time?  D would say that it is easier to rip off a piece when you need it.  Being more exact allows you to lose less paper, thereby saving the planet one bathroom trip at a time.

Sure you're saving the planet, buying double thick, 4-ply paper that is probably made form panda fur and unicorn hair.  Both of those animals are endangered, D!

So each time I nag D to replace the TP, he puts it on BACKWARDS, which is infuriating.  Then I have to go in and turn it around.  Talk about inconsiderate, he's making me do double the work!

I wonder if there is an invention that would not allow you to put the toilet paper on in the other direction?  If not, I need to work on that.  All the correct people of the world would buy one and discontinue this plague of TP ignorance.  It would be forward (TP) thinking.

But alas, this battle shall continue for ever.
