Are you a toilet paper roll logicist, rebel, or anarchist?

Question

So, what say you? Let us peer deep into your soul and discover the answer to the question whether you live your life by logic, go against the grain, or live in abject chaos.

(And don't tell me you just let your mommy or partner deal with it. There is no more foul a human than he who leaves a loved one or housemate without the necessary provisions. The home must be the last refuge of common decency, lest we all devolve and revert to uncivilized animals. Speaking of animals, see video below.)

Story Time: I once went to a client's house, asked to use their washroom, and in it found a large wicker basket filled with the remains of toilet paper rolls. Easily twenty of them in there, all piled up, with various portions of paper left on them. Someone in that family had some sort of neurosis about 'not having enough left', I can only presume. But there was enough. Like, we're talking 10' left, or something, if you unrolled each one. Why not use it, or don't use it, and throw it out? I will never know. You cannot ask strangers, in a business context, why their mind is broken, and just when it all went to s***... And now, you will never know either. We must carry the burden of the unknown, all of us; a riddle never to be solved. I'm a sadist, sorry.

"I live under his rule."

The iconic episode. "You can't spare a square?"

Remember the great toilet paper shortage of 2001? Yeah, that was fun. Whew, got through that one. Just "barely." Maybe those $2000 bidet toilets are not such a dumb idea...

Okay, that's all the toilet paper references for now. No more potty mouth humour. We might run out of soap.

Vote, comment, and expose yourself. Well, don't do that. Please.

Paraphrasing what you said:

"Why not use it, or don't use it, and throw it out? I will never know. You cannot ask strangers, in a business context, why their mind is broken, and just when it all went to s***... And now, you will never know either. We must carry the burden of the unknown, all of us; a riddle never to be solved. I'm a sadist, sorry."

I can unfortunately, "peer deep into your soul and discover the answer to the question whether you live your life by logic, go against the grain, or live in abject chaos". You fear the unknown like most, but is unable to accept it I suppose. You fear that you will be left with the burden to solve the unsolvable. I can see this is being projected onto your readers...

Fredrick Nistczehe also grappled with same problem, he thought he solved the problem, little did he know what is to come HAHAHAHA...

To solve this the true solution is accept that you are a human and not a genuis and let the god fix the chaos, but never abandon your duties...

Weird mind sync thing with me and my husband on this actually, we lived together for a month or so before the other housemate asked us what way she's supposed to put the roll on, cause she was trying to follow our lead but it looked like we each were doing it a different way.

I said that was prolly my fault cause I had thought it would be funny if I put it on different every time and wait until someone said something. Then my husband fucking laughs and say he thought the same thing. He'd done that for years with other roomates apparently too, with various results, and just never mentioned it to me because it didn't come up. So he figured he'd try it with me too.

If the other person hadn't said anything I don't know how long that would've gone on with neither of us realizing we were waiting for the other to say something. Tbh I had gotten used to it and almost forgot I was just doing it for fun. We still switch it with every roll now.

Totally anarchist. I don’t care how it goes, as long as there’s paper available. Any disagreement can easily be settled by taking it off the spindle and laying the roll sideways on the counter.

You've got it all wrong. What you do is separate the 2 sheets and wrap only one around, that way the perforations don't line up. It drives people nuts.

As for me I like to challenge everything & when it comes to toilet paper I just throw it on the roll & how it lands is how it stays. In one of my bathrooms the paper is over & in the other one it’s under.

(Here is an updates patent from 1893)

🤣🤣🤣 Pure logic dictates that the loose end hangs over the front of the roll. Doing otherwise is a sign of a psychopath. 🤣🤣🤣

My wife is more of an anarchist. She didn't used to pay attention to the direction when she put a new roll on, but I've managed to civilize her.

I vote for B. I always thought it looked better. Once in a while I do it the other way just to break up the monotony.

ShadezMcgee · Answer

I may have encountered men who were anarchists with their toilet paper. Public restrooms you will see some shit (no pun intended) and some of those rolls are upside down, shredded... looks like a crime scene in the stalls.

I use a portable bidet attachment on my water bottle while hiking and wipes, only use toilet paper at home because I don’t trust the flushable wipes they can mess up plumbing. But I like to feel fresh after nature calls! With toilet paper you don’t get that, And it’s an icky feeling when your out hiking for hours or camping..

AngryCarl · Answer

It's shocking that before 1891 people had no way of wiping their ass. Technology is a blessing.

bolverk · Answer

I'm an anarchist I do not use a toilet roll holder by bathroom is so small that there is literally no vertical space to mount one, instead they sit on a boxed in section of piping beside the toilet.

I’m a logicist but I have to take little kids and cats into account. When our cat died and the kids grew up we could go back to sheets over the front

All fun and games until the sheets come undone in the paper!
