I'm prone to swapping toilet paper to the front side if it's hanging down the back. It's unnerving and unsettling to see toilet paper subjected to such abuse.

I'm not going to vote because I don't really prefer either way. What I can't stand, however, is when there is no rail to put the toilet paper on.

Front, although somehow, my roommate's always the one who ends up changing the rolls of toilet paper, I've only done it like, twice? xD He also tends to switch directions, so... yeah.

Default Re: Toilet Paper

From Owen's pictures I am without a doubt # 3. What can I say, I'm too lazy to properly put the roll in the dispenser so I place it on top. If I had servants to wipe my ass for me that would be great but for now I'm stuck with doing it myself.

I will say that I have never (not in a long while at least) let myself get to number 4. I always keep a few rolls in the washroom.

I always put mine on so it faces the back. I like it better that way for some reason.

Default Re: Toilet Paper

I like mine to roll from underneath, which I'm guessing would be back (illustration #2 as provided by Owen), because then I can tear it off with one hand. But we don't have any of those high-follutin' terlet paper holders here (I'm not a pig or anything, it just broke and hasn't been replaced yet). xD

Definitely the front. If someone at my house puts it the other way I always switch it.

Default Re: Toilet Paper

Always the front. I will always switch it to where it comes over the front. I had the displeasure of sharing a bathroom with my brother for my childhood, and I've concluded that he is physically incapable of taking the five seconds to just put the roll on. To prove a point, I let the roll be in position #3 of Owen's post, and he still didn't care. We once got to where we had two rolls in position #4 before I got pissed off and asked him what was wrong with him.

First thing I look for in a possible mate, where they place the roll. If they're an unda (back) natta chance dude, ovva (front), they have a good shot at my heart
