Aloha Friday #117

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:

Toilet paper dispenser . . . over or under?

    Before getting married I preferred under. Since I told hubby he had to put the seat down, I now put the TP on over.

    Neither – we cannot use the toilet paper holder because my daughter will pull it all off as she goes to the bathroom. :)

    TechyDad says:

    If you’re standing by the toilet and need some toilet paper, you need to bend down to get it if it is under. Over means less bending. Sitting down, it doesn’t matter as much. This is why I prefer it over the roll.

    I don’t care anymore, now that I use wipes exclusively, but before I used to be an “under” girl!

    Either is fine with me. Living in a house with DH and three teen boys I am just thrilled if someone besides me replaces the toilet paper.

    Over and I’ve been know to “fix” it elsewhere when it’s “wrong”. ;)

    Jeremy says:

    hmm, ah yes the old toilet paper debate. Since all our holders are broken or missing in our house, I would be happy if it were attached to the wall. I guess I should take care of that. :)

    Annie says:

    LOL I have seen this question all over the blogosphere lately :)

    I actually don’t pay attention – but I do know that whenever I put it on my husband changes it. I think he likes over….I am not sure. I really should pay more attention :)

    I’m with Simply Cathi. It has to be over. And I’ll fix it in a public restroom. I don’t change it in someone’s home, tho. But it’s really hard not to!

    Over! Every once in awhile it gets put on under cause I am so tired and I end up putting on upside down. If that happens I don’t bother to change it cause it won’t be there for long!

    Buffie says:

    Definitely over. I’m so obsessive about it that my hubby won’t even put the new roll on anymore. He leaves on the counter and I have to put it on. It’s ok though because then I know it will be put on properly – with the paper going over.

    Jamie says:

    It definitely depends on the bathroom and location of the dispenser. Our last apt. it had to be under and this one it has to be over! You have to do the ‘in the middle of the night with no lights on’ test to determine what is easier, haha!

  5. [...] January 20, 2010 in Uncategorized | Tags: Aloha Friday, contentment, love, peace, school, updates I’m still around but I’ve been making this english class alot harder than I should.  I’ve been letting myself become intimidated by the 20 yr gap in school & really, I shouldn’t have.  I can do this!  But, I’ll still be absent a bit longer cause trying to make my brain come up w/ my next essay is not fun.  I have too many ideas & not enough to go on to actually make it seem like a coherent recollection.  *shrug*  I’ll be back, I promise & I’m working towards being done by Thursday night (not due until Friday pm) so that I can play Aloha Friday!
