OVER or UNDER: Which is the correct for a roll of toilet paper?

HERE'S WHAT I THINK

OVER or UNDER: Which is the correct for a roll of toilet paper?

I personally believe that OVER is the only way to go. I'm talking about toilet paper (TP) and paper towels (PT). Heck, OVER must be the accepted default for the way to position a roll as think about. Don't hotel bathrooms always nicely place a fancy fold at the end of that roll. And, how is the roll monkeybrain? Well it's OVER. It just follows that would be the way to do it for paper towels as well. Not only is it the right way, but you can also control how many sheets you get.

OVER: Correct!

YOUR TURN!

Think about it! Over is correct as you can control the number of sheets. Under is just down plain wrong and makes you surely empty the entire roll with just one pull. Right?

OVER or UNDER: Which is correct?

Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes, you're right! Definitely OVER.

This is one of my most aggravating agendas in our home!
"OVER" is definitely the CORRECT way!
It applies both to rolls of toilet paper as well as paper towels.
Use the "FORCE" of gravity to have the sheets roll off into your hand right out in front.
I do hate the hide and seek method in the "under" handed position.
PS: Great Lens!!!

After years of dedicated research and consulting with my esteemed colleagues I have come to the irrefutable decision that OVER is the correct placement of bathroom tissue.

Besides, when you put it under it sticks to the wall!

Peace! :~)

In my house I am just happy if it gets on the roll. My kids seem to think that the paper sits on top. Lol.

No way, Monkeybrain! It's got to be UNDER.

Gandree says:

If you have a toddler in the house, it has to be under. That way when they spin the roll it doesn't unroll all over the floor!

I've just been on a vacation. I took a survey and I've had to change my vote. I stayed in seaside resorts and most of them used the 2-paper holders. To work they have to roll under. Monkeybrain!!

What is toilet paper?

Toilet paper is a soft paper product used to maintain personal hygiene after human defecation or urination. It differs in composition somewhat from facial tissue, and is designed to decompose in septic tanks, which some other bathroom and facial tissues do not. Most septic tank manufacturers advise against using paper products that are non-septic tank safe. Different names are used for toilet paper in countries around the world, including "loo roll/paper", "toilet roll", "dunny roll/paper", "bog roll", "TP", or "bathroom/toilet tissue".
