Toilet paper

Published late at night on Wednesday, October 19th, 2005

Aware of the risk being claimed insane, I’m taking the debate whether a toilet roll should be aligned with the wall or hanging of the wall. I’ve heard it might be and old debate, but I’d never experienced one, so here we go



Maybe I’m wired, but every time I go to the toilet and the toilet paper Is aligned with the wall I’m annoyed! – It just complicates the whole process! It’s like a thousand times harder actually getting a pieces of paper, am I right?

Why not place the damn role with the paper hanging of the wall? I’m not a freak, just having some weird thoughts now and then – To save my self from total humiliation, I would like to emphasize that mentioning the suspect to others actually resulted in quite good feedback. Some of the arguments is listed below.

Hanging of the wall

• Easier to grab
• In commercials and on hotels the roll is placed, hanging of the wall
• Just fells right

Aligned with the wall

• Friction between the wall and the roll prevent the roll from spinning like a thousand times and leaves the bathroom filled with paper! (Side note: the friction must be about the same even if the roll hangs of the wall, right?!)

Feel free to contribute with your personal opinion.

What is it about this English based website? Well to try to keep it that way, I will try to answer in as proper English as I can. First, as Logan mentioned, do you have to much time to spend? (well yea guess you have some, as you don’t works as much as you are used to right now.) But sticking to topic; toilet paper should be off the wall. That’s it! The only advantage about it facing the wall, is as you said Dennis, you wont experience the toilet paper going crazy. Remember certain situations, where I have just pulled the roll without holding against it, and where as the paper normal brakes this way, sometimes it don’t!

For starters, I’m glad you agree with me boys - your points are brilliant!

Secondly I do have had pretty damn much time lately, especially duo to the holidays. – But I don’t find that as a negativity.

Okay guys, here comes another reason to hang it off the wall. If you have a toilet paper with prints on it, it gets turned the wrong way if it's aligned, so therefore the creators of toilet paper wants it to be off the wall.
