9. a familiar sight for cat owners....


I have five, but they *usually* aren't interested in TP. This is just an internet image, not one of mine.

13. I saw that picture - he almost looks like my Abbott


And I have a feeling if I left the bathroom door open when I'm gone - that would be Abbott

10. Over by all means. Only tears right consistently if it's set on over
position.

11. The bigger debate is whether you fold or squash the paper into a ball...
after you pull it off the roll.

15. I just make sure its properly inserted in the holder
I do not concern myself with "under" or "over."

The outcome is the same.

16. Too funny!
I'm an "Over" married to an "Under." He doesn't change the roll when it runs out (but that's a whole other story), so I usually win. ;-)

32. Corn cobs!
:evilgrin:

I truly don't care as long as there's tp on the roll.
Same with toothpaste. I care not if someone sqeezes from the middle. Neither one is even a minor irritation for me. I've got bigger fish to fry.

Just don't leave fudge marks on the seat and I'm happier than a pig in slop.

35. An M.D. once told me over is healthier...
... because it's less likely to spread germs. Sounds reasonable to me. And aesthetically speaking, over justlooks better and is less likely to unravel.
Thanks for listening to my 2 cents' worth.

39. 5 star hotels do it over...
and fold the end into a little point (making it easier to grab).

Oh, and btw, the sead and lid are supposed to be CLOSED WHEN YOU FINISH!

40. Over -- if you've ever gotten rolls with images on the sheets...
that's the only way that you can see the image correctly. (For example, the flowers are upside down if you do it under.)

However, my mother insists on under because she said that kids are less likely to pull it when it's under. I guess the same is true of pets based upon previous posts.
