After sharing with you how I am afraid of monsters under my bed and that nutrition facts labels are not allowed to face me, it shouldn’t come as any surprise that I am particular about toilet paper.
It’s an age old question…over or under?
To me, there is absolutely no question: OVER. It makes sense for the toilet paper to be rolled in that direction. Period. End of discussion.
Well, that is all well and good when I am in the comfort of my own home. I am in control. I am able to place the toilet paper roll in the proper orientation. But what about when I am at someone else’s house?!?!
I know I shouldn’t admit this, but I have been known to flip toilet paper rolls in bathrooms when they are rolled under instead of over. Oh, the shame. In all seriousness though, it bugs the living daylights out of me! My hands quake…my fingers ITCH to correct the toilet paper owner’s wrongdoing. Don’t they know that the toilet paper is supposed to be OVER?!?! Come on now! I won’t even get started on store/restaurant bathrooms that have the toilet paper rolled in the wrong direction. I’ve actually contemplated prying open the big plastic container that the enormous rolls are held inside of in order to restore balance to my world.
I need help. I know this.
So now…I must ask you: over or under?
Bahhahaha, omg, I’m TOTALLY with you!! Over, absolutely, no question. I find it hilarious that you change it at other people’s houses though!
omg, i’m the EXACT same way! it drives me crazy when they are under…
Definitely over – I totally agree with you… WHY would you fold it the other way?!
I’ve totally flipped it OVER at other people’s houses 😛
It’s definitely over! I flip it too!
Over and out!
OVER! I change it in other people’s houses too!
Haha. I’ve totally flipped the TP at other places, too. Seriously though, how can people live with it under? It’s just…wrong. My husband and I had the over/under discussion very early on in our relationship. It would’ve been a mood-kill if he was an “under” kind of guy.
You need this! 🙂

I have it hanging in my bathroom.
We have to do it under (even though I prefer over) and hide it in the concave part of the tp holder or else our lovely cat will get ahold of the over fold (thinking it’s a new play toy) and shred our entire new role of tp filling the bathroom with shredded tp snow. He’s a doll.
hahahaha that is so funny. i had this convo with my boyfriend the other day and he insisted it was over and i just didnt care.
how is there even any discussion on this? OVER for sure! why can’t people just get it right? LOL.
Over, most definitely OVER! I’ve also flipped rolls in other peoples houses. J doesn’t care, but he knows I do, so he ALWAYS puts it over, or he knows I’ll freak out :-/
OVER! I actually don’t think I know anyone who prefers it under, haha.
For the love of God OVER!
And I have changed someones toilet paper as well! LOL
I suddenly feel quite sane because I’ve considered and other times actually flipped around people’s TP at their houses because it bothers me so much. My bf always puts it under and it drives me insane. I noticed the same thing at his parents house, so maybe he just grew up that way, either way, I’m an over girl!
Over. There is no question about it!
Over, definitely over!!
I always put it on OVER!
Over! If I’m at somebody else’s house and need to change the TP roll, then I will put it on MY way 🙂
I agree, it has to be over!
OVER!!!!! I’m 1000% with you! (I, too, am guilty of sometimes changing it at someone else’s house!) But it is wrong the other way, in my opinion, and it seems like you use more if you go with under. No bueno.
OVER! It must be over. Although I have never changed someone else’s toilet paper roll, I have been very, very tempted to do so!!
My cousin flips my toilet paper to the over position, because I honestly don’t even pay attention or notice it when I put it on or use it!!! It drives him NUTS. He has gone through my whole house, flipping toilet paper rolls, lol.
Over!! Definitely over. I’ve totally switched other people’s toilet paper so that it was the ‘right’ way, also!
Over as well. Now, I know you use a lot of stock photos but do you fold a new role like you’re at a hotel (as pictured)?
Nick – actually, most of the photos on the site are my own! Sadly, the picture is of the toilet paper roll in our bathroom at home. And…I usually don’t fold the corners in, but I did it for the photo’s sake…haha!
OVER. i always change it when hubby leaves it under 🙂
Under, under, under, under, and I think you all are just as weird as you think I am!!!!! 😛
Over! I make a fuss when Hubs puts it under.
