Toilet Paper: FRONT OR BACK?
 

Make your choice, but be aware that this is a very serious and cruel geopolitical deabte, you will be judged very harshly by your peers over your preference.

God help us all.

Definitely front. Soft, and a little smoother.
Wonder how long this'll last? Maybe a little less than forever.

Goddamn fronters ruin everything.

Let's say you've get a wet pant-leg, or hand, and you brush it against that toilet paper? it INSTANTLY sitcks to your hand and goes everywhere.

Back is superior, there is no contest, fronters will all die alone.

Damn it, you're right. I must use back. Or invent double-front-sided paper (if it's not already around).

Please explain what this is about.

which way you keep your toilet paper facing--away from yourself (the smart, practical way) or facing yourself.

Facing me, its easier to roll out

Oh, I see. I was imagining toilet paper that could only be used in one direction. Well, I keep my toilet paper on the floor. It used to be in a bowl on the floor, but then Mum took that with her when she moved out. So neither.

Front. I sneeze a lot and it makes it easier for me to get to it in the middle of a debilitating fit of snot.

Toilet paper? Don't you guys scoot along the carpet like everyone else?

I wipe my arse on the Daily Mail, best place for it.

yesterday I was considering a 'do you wipe front to back or back to front' thread, but this will suffice.

front

Surely wiping back and forth accomplishes more than monodirectional wiping could.

Front, duh!

Front, I have no choice really. But when we went on holiday my Grandma would turn it round, then my dad would turn it back to the front. I really don't get the fuss.

It seems to be a war between men and women. Women like back, men like front. No matter who you ask, always the same.

Oh my god, that post is so dirty.

Back. What if it splashes? It never does, but the possibility is still there.

I cannot conceive of any sensible location to keep toilet paper where it could be susceptible to splashing by anything besides deliberate attempt.


You people would make crap interior designers.

Not me, I'm colourblind.

Front. I thought it was just the preferred way of everyone. I'm not really understanding anyone's reasoning for it facing the back yet.

How do people feel about side, as per many public W.C. tissue dispensers?

Front.

And what what what? Side?

Alcar...

Yes, side.

Wtf.

Seriously guys. What the fuck?

And neither - it's always on the radiator or floor.

- Rexy

Yea that works too. With me its often on the edge of the tub or on the radiator as well.

Side is just awkward. I don't have the motor skills to take a dookie and play with that machine.

What is this "toiletpa purr" everyone's talking about?

What's wrong with using your hands?


Other than that, I don't care, it depends how the rolls come out of the bag, or the way I'm holding them at that moment :P

I just never wipe; I take magical shits.

Who gives a shit?

Zing. Also, apparently a lot of people do. I could not care less.
