Do you put your toilet paper roll on wall so it rolls off the roll over or under the roll?
I put it under. All my life I've had it over, but recently I changed to under, and I love it!

I guess this has to do with where your toilet paper roll is situated. Mine is one of those free standing ones, so nothing's getting onto the wall.

I've hear the opposite if you have pets (or small children I guess). If you put it over they can unroll the whole thing onto the floor with those little paws of theirs. Pet Owners should be putting it under.

And I still don't understand the difference between having the TP on the top or the bottom. Either way, you're grabbing the loose square, plus, like I said, I have a free-standing TP holder. No difference either way and I can set the damn thing wherever I want for maximum comfort. I SHIT LIKE A KING.

Why can nobody explain why over is "better?" I typically do that just because it "feels" right, but I cannot figure out why under is a problem. When the TP has been put on under, whoa, HEY! Somehow I can still figure out how to use it.
People seem to be implying under is somehow "messier," but I can only see that being a problem if you're some kind of monster that's getting shit on their hands, in which case the placement of the TP is the least of your worries.
EXPLAIN.

Thank you, sir. Though I have used under in the past and noticed no difference, I will purposely do it the next time the roll needs to be chaged to observe the results. Let's get to the bottom (HIIIIIIII-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH) of this chicanery.

JerseyRich

I found this explanation...
If you have the toilet paper on a roller that DOES NOT MOVE, the paper should come over the top. Most paper with a design on it is made for this method.
If you have the toilet paper on a roller THAT SWINGS UP as you take off the paper, the paper should come off from the bottom. This way, when you pull on the paper, it lifts the roll away from the wall and the paper comes off easily. If you put the paper on so it comes over the top, you will have to use one hand to hold the roll away from the wall and the other hand to pull the paper off. Not an easy thing to do.
ALSO, if you have a cat that likes to play with the toilet paper, put the roll on so the paper comes off the bottom. When a cat claws on the roll, he will be winding it up instead of getting the paper off. You will save yourself a lot of money on toilet paper and the cat will not play with it very often.

Under Experiment Update #1
I heard my cat attacking the newly placed "under" roll
and let her have it until she stopped.
After checking the roll I found several claw holes
but no toilet paper unrolled on the floor.

I have to have the paper go over the roll because the bathroom is a bit cramped in our house, the toilet is very close to the wall & my ass kind of oozes over the sides of the seat. So it would be impossible for me to access said roll of tp otherwise.
I guess we could also go with just the loose roll on the floor but my dog likes to eat toilet paper & its embarassing during a dinner party when he runs through the dining room with a roll streaming behind him.

It's not "messier", it's "easier" to grab as much paper as you want because you're not coming into contact with the wall. There's less resistance with over.

It can go either way depending on how the dispenser is set up. The key is that you don't want the paper to rip in such a way that it's difficult to pull out the next piece.

TheMojoPin

OK, so it's based on placement of the holder. Now I get it, because I've used way too many bathrooms where the holder was in an awful spot to reach, TP on top or below. Now that I've got a free-standing one, I'm never going back.

Under Experiment #2
After a few uses I am beginning to be annoyed by the under placement of the roll.
It is mounted on the cabinets and makes it more difficult to grab the end piece.
The trade off for not having the cat unroll it doesn't seem like enough.
I'm not sure how much longer I can live like this, I'm starting to crack.

If you have a holder that keeps the roll from sitting against the wall, it just seems easier to unwind a length of paper and/or find the end if the roll is on like in the left illustration. You put your hand on the top of the roll and spin it. The paper should unwind for you without messing up.
If you have the roll like in the right illustration, and the end of the paper happens to be at the top of the roll (or you spin too hard when you try to unwind), there is a possibility that the paper will become clogged between the roll and the wall.

Why can nobody explain why over is "better?"
Simple. At about 5:00 this morning I got up to go for a squirt and as is my practice I just feel my way to the bathroom, lift the lid and even though I'm a guy sit down to tinkle. During my early morning wee I also cut what may have been a juicy fart and to make sure I didn't drag anything extra back to bed I reached for the TP. Normally I can make like Helen Keller and just get the end of the roll by braille but not this time. I kept spinning the roll but couldn't find the end. So finally I get off the bowl and turn on the light. Turns out when I reloaded the shit tickets last time I cleaned the bathroom I put the roll in so it would go under. Back to the toilet and finished the deed. So what should have been an quick trip to pee and then back to my happy place turned into something much more involved leaving me wide awake.
That's why its "better" :flush:

well but in the case of the right roll you pull the paper up and not spin it over from behind, the problem with that is it usually rips or you don't get more than one "spin" (which is perfect for toddlers and kitten trying to unravel the entire roll and clog your toilet with it)

I think that speaks more about inability to wipe your own ass.
while doing more research on this subject I came across this picture:

Although it is a slight advantage, I guess it would be easier to see the free end of the paper if the roll is over the top
