I don't think we have had this argument here, at least I don't remember having it here. The main reason the top ones correct relates to cats...if you have cats, it has to go this way, because they will unroll the tp if you don't...even the whole dang roll if you aren't home or don't catch them doing it (lol). The secondary reasons for me are that something about the way it looks hanging over the front bugs me, and there is very little space between the roll and my hand, and I find it awkward to handle that way. What is your preference, and support your opinion...lol..Alos, since we are on the topic, I use Cottonelle Comfort Care 24 mega rolls ( 108 regular rolls), because it is soft which is mandatory for me, and because it lasts a long time.

PS: Rick did that last one once, though I think he just forgot...and I was perturbed...lol
Also if you like animated movies ( Hi Tarm) ...here is a pretty cool ranking, and it isn't just Disney, anime and all kinds of stuff are ranked 1-50 ( that spiderman movie you mentioned is in there), I don't agree with all the rankings of the Disney ones, which I am more familiar with, and some I have never seen...but interesting article and rankings...

Hanging the roll, right up there with squeezing the toothpaste - all kinds of styles. And I've noticed different ways to carve up a stick of butter.. some take a slice from the end, others scooping out of the center.
But the main thing is starting with real butter - that fake stuff, forget it. You go around once don't you, so do it buttered up

I couldn't care less how the TP is on the roller. Cristina cares. I think she likes it forward but I don't really pay that much attention.

Scooping butter from the center is a sign of psychopathy.

I would say that list is far too heavily weighted towards modern animation, as well as lots of Disney that I don't think belongs on that list. However, the one fact that makes that list completely irrelevant is the fact that it rated Your Name so far down.

I'd write more on this subject, but I'm driving and I hate typing on my phone.

I leave then on the little bar alone and pick up the roll on the counter.

The little spindle thingy disappeared a long time ago
I’ve never bothered to buy another one. The TP sits on the floor
Toilet paper choices are limited by my septic system. The really soft stuff causes clogs so I either use Scott , store brand or generic

My toilet is so close to the wall and the toilet paper roll is in the wall that it's all but impossible to use. Therefore mine sits on the little dresser I have next to the sink. I have always preferred to have a role in the hand rather than pulling it off a spindle.

Those that pull the tail down the back are psychopaths. 😜

I looked up signs of a psychopath just to make sure I was okay and I'm good to go, no problem πŸ‘.
That butter scooping thing - new one to me. From what I read psychopaths can be helped but not cured. Loners and very intelligent and little to no empathy.
.. next time we have toast I'm going to watch how you do it

I do the end and always real butter....though if it is too hard to spread on something, I will shave it across the top of the stick...I hate not soft butter...I keep it out all the time, but sometimes forget to replace it with a new stick in time
