He can come live with me any time!! Isn't that what all sensible (as opposed to having been taught the "correct" way) do it?? That way you can see where the end is and don't have to go fumbling underneath or reach too far down (depending on positioning). *I* consider the underfeed to be the *wrong* way, so there!!!

So phunny this business wif the TP. My husband likes the "underfeed" while I grew up with the "over the top". I've come to like the underfeed and have adopted it's use.

Wot she said!

Underfed ALL THE WAY!!! Over the top causes a lack of control, makes me nervous -- can go suddenly spinning like crazy, toilet paper unravelling everywhere.

AND.. . . . .underfed is much more aesthetically pleasing. For my body, as well.

[mushroom]

I converted to over the top because my kittehs could never resist the lure of a piece of paper hanging down, and tp would be unravelled all over the house :lol: Talk about out of control!!! Then it seemed so much more convenient I never converted back.

But if it's over the top, a few paw swipes has the entire roll unrolled, and shredded, in a heap on the floor.

That's why you have to start them off with the over the top, so they never know what joy awaits them No enticing dangly bits. I am such a spoilsport!

"Christmas Twee"

I remember very well the pic of Skit's handiwork wif the terlit paper--so phunny!!

Hi, Sooooozle!

I remember very well the pic of Skit's handiwork wif the terlit paper--so phunny!!

Me, too. .. . ...... Quite spectacular!

O'er the top TP rolls are maddening to tear off - - it remains awkward and often impossible to get a clean, easy rip-off.

Much easier when the line of rippage is against the wall.

I tear sideways in a sharp motion (right to left), the same way I tear paper towel from the over-the-top roll in the store's privy.

Mygawd, I've had to really go and think about this one.. .... . ..like, overnight.

It depends, pour moi, on which side of my body the toilet paper hangs. It is generally a much easier production when the roll is on my left, and I can use my dominant left hand.

Either way, I'm rippin' sharply, as well (which makes the under-fed position a must - - things can suddenly rotate crazily, often out of control, if o'er-the-top), but from left to right if the roll's on the left, and from the right if it is on the right.

I am sure that almost all public restrooms have the rolls situated on the right, to accommodate the population's right-handed majority. The exception would be in the Middle Eastern countries, where such unclean, sinister practices like using toilet paper are relegated to the left hand.

Never been to the Middle East, but I'm thinkin' as a southpaw it would be much easier to wipe me bum over there. . .. ...... .

[curlyfries]

would rather watch telly in me jim-jamz than paint the town red

....and what would Tel-ly be doing that's so fascinating, hmmmm???....and what is he wearing?

....oh wait....is he the one in yer jim-jamz????

High five, girlfriend!!!

....and my critters have never shown an interest, so that's not an issue here.

Hmmmm....contemplating whether this is sufficient reason to warrant a trip abroad. Honey!!!!.........we absolutely must visit the Middle East so I can compare bum wipageability.

My little Lylie-bear is back!!

He had to go back to have a few random tooth chips taken out that were still causing him pain. I think he is pain free for the first time in about a year! He's been sitting on my lap and that hasn't happened for a very long time.

I suppose I'll know he's really back when he takes out that little upstart, Lefty.

So good to have the boys fighting.

Good to hear, Jess!!! Me MIL had a pug a while back that had an eye problem . . . can't remember eggszactly what it was . . . but she was putting ointment in it three times a day. Lots of infections. She kept at it to "save the eye" and thought she was doing the right thing. It finally got bad enough that they had to remove the eye. MIL said her pug was a new dog . . . back to her puppy days. She was concentrating so much effort into keeping the eyesight that she didn't realize how much pain her pooch was in. We called her a pirate dog after that.

*I* consider the underfeed to be the *wrong* way, so there!!!

Since we appear to be taking a poll . . . I'm wif shroom!!!

Tel is in Nikki's jim-jams . . . . . . new av please!!!

[elye]

.........we absolutely must visit the Middle East so I can compare bum wipageability.

This country is well-known for the.....um..... .......let me politely say generous.... research grants given out to various institutions. I think I will use this premise to get me a federal study grant that will involve flight, accommodation and daily expenses in Dubai, Kuwait or... . . where is the spot with the incredible white beaches.. .. ...ah, JORDAN... ....... . and a final bursary for a peer-reviewed thesis.

Efficacy and Comfort in Buttocks-Wiping, and a Call to the Middle East: Can the Left-Handed Perform at Maximum Capability When Roll is Placed on Their Left?

She was concentrating so much effort into keeping the eyesight that she didn't realize how much pain her pooch was in.

Exactly the same story with me neighboUr, whose cocker spaniel has glaucoma and was getting drops put in for years. This dog was a miserable, snappy little thing until they finally took the eye out. She is now lovely, affectionate and calm. Poor little dog, in pain for so long.

You know what? . ... . .... ... .my neighboUr, actually, is miserable and snappy. I rarely speak with her for this reason. Perhaps she needs to have an eye removed!

I just may go and kindly suggest this. . .. ......

As a fellow lefty, I for one can't wait to see the results of this study

My PP (personal preference):

Loaded on the right, underfed, tearing right to left.

*snortage!!!!!!*

...but poor wee doggy tales ...

OK, think I got away with a miniscule hangover from last night jaunt wiv me gym goilz ..... did dance until the wee small hours in ridiculously high shoes

..was back with a double sven after 5 hrs sleep

Gettin' too old for this larque!!!!!! ......... watching spiderman3 in me jim jamz, eating cherry pie wiv ice cream

This sounds very like a modern Parisian runway model.... .. . . ..

Double Sven, Nik?! Gads, I can barely get the dogs around the block after I've been out carousing.. . ..... .and in stilettos?? I would be lame, indeed, the following morn... .....

[mushroom]

....and my critters have never shown an interest, so that's not an issue here.

Aha, ya see, my point eggsactly--don't even know what dey is missing!!

Me MIL had a pug a while back that had an eye problem . . . she was putting ointment in it three times a day. Lots of infections. She kept at it to "save the eye" and thought she was doing the right thing. It finally got bad enough that they had to remove the eye.

OMG, dat removes a lot of guilt. I did zactly same thing, thought I was the only one. Fortunately she did not seem to have been in pain, but I kept it up for a year or two before they phinally removed her eye they found a foxtail in it Poor doggy!!!!

You guys!!!!!!!!!!

_{<yer do know 'me telly' is the tv right?>}

Well, dere was room for some confoosion dere

As a fellow lefty, I for one can't wait to see the results of this study

Ah now I see it, this is a left versus right question, and not an under or over one

My PP (personal preference):

Loaded on the right, underfed, tearing right to left.

My personal preference is not to have the toilet jammed against the wall so you have to be a contortionist to reach the paper at all. So I have these toooo cuuute little wrought iron stands with two arms which hold two rolls of paper (one for lefties, the other for righties) which can be positioned anywhere ya like :lol:

........ watching spiderman3 in me jim jamz, eating cherry pie wiv ice cream

Anyone see a relationship here??? Huh???

[curlyfries]

You guys!!!!!!!!!!

_{<yer do know 'me telly' is the tv right?>}

Sure.......but my interpretation is much more interesting!

.....and after a double sven, you deserve to have a cherry pie wif ice cream

[celiac-mommy]

Lots of TP talk, I feel inadequate, Whichever way I grab the roll, that's the way it goes on. My son unrolls it onto the floor either way, so it doesn't really matter

Still basking (basque - ing ) in the warm glow that is Edward ............ yes, I kicked many a teen out of the way fro MY New Moon ticket!!! ........... a I LOVED every minute of it

My, Oh, My -is alls I can say. Got sloshed with my gigglie girlfriends, saw the movie, fell in lurve all over again and am off to see it wiph me auntie tomorrow. I'll be sober for this one

Nuphin else to report, thank GOD all is quiet here!!!!

[elye]

OMG... .... . Last evening The Ripper was asking about the goings-on in Psillyville, so I proceeded to tell him about the TP debate. I then asked him if he could provide me with any case studies and/or peer-reviewed debates with flowcharts on the subject. This morning he provided me with this detailed study, which me must all now peruse.

I think I may be changing my vote now. . . .. . ...
