For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!

That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”

    For under it’s because they have cats. If it’s over cats can pull it down and unroll it entirely.

        You want to close up the wet room where you shit? I guess you could leave the fan running 24/7.

          Well, it’s better than letting the tiny particles of shit float through your home until the smell disperses

            Better to trap them in the same humid area so they can form colonies along with the various fungi?

              Exactly. Then when you clean your bathroom, you clean up all the shit particles along with whatever else is in there.

      I sit down to wipe, I have a cat, and I have the toilet paper over. Neither the above comment nor yours explains my situation. Over is just easier to use, and subjectively more aesthetically pleasing.

      Having lost a few rolls, many years ago, to a Sheltie puppy with cat-like tendencies, I understand how annoying that would be to live with for the animal’s entire lifetime, and I’m willing to make an exception for cat owners. Otherwise it’s just making things harder for no good reason.

      I’ve somehow lost rolls to cats rolling in either direction, so my TP roll is now often found in the cabinet above the toilet.
