I am an over person... I HATE when it's upside down! My best friend is an under person... but if it's under I deal with it... but I don't have to like it!

ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH....why dont men change the roll when it is empty? I was having this "discussion" with my hubby shortly after he retired and he said I DO change it...he doesnt. So he had an idea...he said ok from now on, whoever changes the roll should initial it and leave it in the sink, so we will know who did it. I said...forget it...I will just change it....anyway, I want it OVEr and he wants it under lol.

Hey, I'm happy to volunteer for the European branch of the research institute! Give it a worldwide slant! For info, I'm an 'over' - to the extent that I even swap it round in other ppl's houses or public restrooms if it's been put on 'under'! Plus, living with a man and two kids, when will I learn to check if there's paper BEFORE I sit down and well, you know...?! LOL

um if that is the complaint of the day I would say your day went pretty good then ... I personally am just thrilled that the toilet paper is close to the toilet when I need it and not in the cupboard or closet too far to reach. I have found that I am the only one who is capable of replacing empty toilet paper and putting it back on the roll. It is a special skill and the rest of my family is afraid to try it for fear of failure I think.

I guess I'm an odd-ball. I don't care!!!! I'm just happy if "someone" in this house can hit the toilet BOWL!! ---and that someone is me!!! ROL! Seriously, I don't mind...and I don't mind if the lid is left up -- first thing in the morning, with my aching back, I APPRECIATE that my DH leaves the lid up! I know --- I'll be drummed out of the "woman" world, won't I.

I'm an oddball--when my son started crawling and discovered the TP I started putting it on the back of the commode. Tissue boxes also went up high.

Here's why:

I like over and will change it DGD does it under. Granddaughter lives with us and seems she always gets stuck putting new roll on, just seems to work out that way. I don't mind doing it and will when I need to. Daughter says at her house she is the only one that is capable of putting a new roll on. I'm surprised the gov. hasn't done a study on this yet, who knows maybe they have and we just missed it.

over, because if it's a full roll , which we both change, my nails (tho short) scrape the wall when I'm getting hold of it and I HATE that.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

If I could get my 7 year old son to put the lid up to pee in the first place! The number of times I wander in half asleep first thing and take a pew, to discover that he's been there first and NOT put the seat up - his aim leaves a lot to be desired! :mrgreen:

Hey I'm grateful if they put a new roll on! Geez, at my house I'm the ONLY one who worries about it being on a roller!! LOL

Besides, when the government gets through taxing, and taking care of all of us, we will not be able to afford the paper, is what I'm beginning to think! God Bless America!
