Better from behind?

Okay, it's Friday, so I'm venting a pet peeve -

Someone replaced the toilet paper in the bathroom here at work, and they hung it so that the paper unrolls off the BACK side. THAT'S NOT HOW IT GOES!

I HATE THAT!

It's ALMOST worse than the people who install c-fold paper towels upside down, so you have to claw stupidly at the sheer paper face to get one out.

GAH!

    Taking it from the back is the best way. Keeps the roll looking clean. From the front is just sloppy

    LOL

    Yeah, I agree with the OP. TP needs to hang from the front. It just does.

    I like it laying on the side.

    I much prefer it that way, but at least it sounds like you guys all have someone who at least puts the toilet paper back on. Lol. I'd be thankful is someone in my household could replenish the roll in any direction. haha

    Yeah, my thoughts too....oh...TP. Definitely has to be in front! All the Good Hotels, Hospitals and everywhere I go put it in front. It took me over a year to retrain my DH to put it on right. Scrabbling for the TP is NOT my idea of fun!

    I agree! Plus, if it hangs from the back, when you try to rip it off, you just end up pulling more toilet paper!

    I curse the day my children were conceived every time they do this. I'm not kidding.

    Throw it in the sink and turn all the faucets on. I'd quit my job if that happened.

    What putting the TP on backwards or grabbing a sheet and running with it all over the house?

    I'm with you on both the toilet paper and the c-fold towels. I also dislike the lazy @sses who refuse to even put a new roll on and instead set it on the empty roll leaning up against the stall. WTH?? :grumble:

    From behind is always better!

    Both my husband and I prefer the loose part on top. We have this posted by the toilet that our guests use. :tongue:

    I prefer my toilet paper roll not on a holder, but if you insist on a holder then at least have it come off the back close to the wall out of the way.:happy:

    My boyfriend likes it better from behind. He say's it's easier to get it off.

    I prefer it from the front, however. It just seems more natural.

    To each his own!

    (We are talking about toilet paper.. right?)

    My wife insists that paper drop from behind. I have no idea why, but for some reason that is better.

    DH does....most of the time. Although his normal routine is to leave maybe 2 sheets on the roll. :noway: When I asked him about this "habit" he just smiled at me. Yeah, right.....just wait dearest.....revenge is a *itch and so am I! I'll pick my moment....................................:devil:

    TP that is, it's much easier to rip off.
