Why I insist on hanging my TP the "wrong" way.

IcyColdFire · 2012-09-03T16:19:32+00:00

I like how there is a Wikipedia article for this argument. There is even math in there. MATH I TELL YOU!!!

Homo_erotic_toile · 2012-09-03T15:16:37+00:00

Same here, except I have a two year old instead of a cat.

Bakudai · 2012-09-03T16:52:30+00:00

cats dont give a fuck

RestoreFear · 2012-09-03T15:23:20+00:00

I just close the door.

POSTS_GIFS · 2012-09-03T15:37:16+00:00

You got to admit, it's sort of cute

neilmoore · 2012-09-03T15:16:00+00:00

My wife and I switched for the same reason. Now the toilet paper gets shredded instead of piled up in the floor. Not much of an improvement.

It's always our blind cat who does this, for some reason.

if they had claws, you wouldn't be so fortunate.

endymion2300 · 2012-09-03T16:36:53+00:00

Some men just want to watch the roll turn.

wwhateverr · 2012-09-03T16:38:56+00:00

Squeeze your toilet paper roll flat before hanging it the "right" way. This will create slight indents in the cylinder, so that when a cat or child plays with it, it won't roll continuously.

As a scientist, I appreciate and commend the labeling of this two panel figure with "fig.1" and "fig. 2". It makes me feel warm on the inside.

gattofila · 2012-09-03T16:26:01+00:00

The cutest cat caught in the act ever. (a fellow Redditor's cat, not my cat!)

herpmcderpia · 2012-09-03T15:25:51+00:00

Am I the only person on Reddit that doesn't give shit about which way the toilet paper hangs?

Pun intended.

Andrilena · 2012-09-03T16:02:25+00:00

My cat has never messed with the toilet paper, and I put it on the "right" way. She does like to knock things off the counter, though.

spearmintSTK · 2012-09-03T16:07:04+00:00

I always put it the wrong way then

Metsa · 2012-09-03T16:17:20+00:00

That's definitely the best argument I've seen for this way of toilet paper arrangement. Still not enough to convert me though

bajasa1 · 2012-09-03T16:50:36+00:00

Either way...

stonecutterunderwear · 2012-09-03T16:17:31+00:00

Actually I think underhand is the correct way. When Homer and Marge had their kids taken away by CPS, one of the notes Marge read off the report was "toilet paper hung in improper overhand fashion."

Username582 · 2012-09-03T16:28:52+00:00

I just get a dog.

lhmatt · 2012-09-03T16:31:48+00:00

It was cats on reddit all along trying to make me change the way I roll.

Bammurdo · 2012-09-03T17:39:57+00:00

I'm terrible at Photoshoping (or Painting, in my case), but this is what happens anyway:

Jazzremix · 2012-09-03T16:16:40+00:00

My dog doesn't give a fuck about the toilet paper. In fact, he doesn't go in the bathroom for any reason. He's awesome.

Purpose2 · 2012-09-03T16:30:32+00:00

Adding this to a list of reasons why I prefer dogs.

tuckmyjunksofast · 2012-09-03T16:10:32+00:00

The ONLY reason to hang toilet paper backwards is for pets and small children. BTW, most cats will still shred the roll even if they cant get it into the floor.

ihatecats18 · 2012-09-03T16:16:47+00:00

Fight back against the cat nation.

SuperBicycleTony · 2012-09-03T15:42:07+00:00

I find the mechanics of tearing a piece of paper off the roll are easier when the roll is positioned the 'wrong' way.

throwmeawayout · 2012-09-03T16:05:34+00:00

This whole thing just isn't a big deal. I just change it back to the right way whenever I see it the wrong way. Takes like 2 seconds.

My cat figured out how to spool it off no matter the direction. After that I set him up a few times and used the whole coffee can full of dry beans thing. I think it only took three big scares for him to give up on the tp roll.

IgnorantZebra · 2012-09-03T15:28:00+00:00

you could just put the toilet paper on top of the bowl

kimcheekumquat · 2012-09-03T15:27:57+00:00

A toilet paper cover would also work.

mrhelton · 2012-09-03T16:19:21+00:00

Why the hell didn't I think about that when I had a cat???

infinitum17 · 2012-09-03T09:22:08-07:00

OK, I have to admit, this is a legit reason to do it that way.

dcowboy · 2012-09-03T16:23:22+00:00

Like a cat would ever let something like that get between it and what it wants.

Patsby · 2012-09-03T16:26:33+00:00

to be fair guys this photo is only SUITABLE for people who have smart CATS!

chineseporcelain · 2012-09-03T16:27:32+00:00

TP !? I need tp for my bunghole!

WarpvsWeft · 2012-09-03T16:27:43+00:00

Put a metal screen over the toilet paper roll.

Put a metal plate on the floor.

Attach the screen to one side of an electrical outlet and the plate to the other.

Leave that up for a few weeks and your cat won't touch it ever again. Problem solved.

You're welcome.

pooterpon · 2012-09-03T16:27:57+00:00

My cat knows not to go into the bathroom and do that.

django_xl · 2012-09-03T16:29:43+00:00

Now I finally realize what TP means: I need TP for my bongholio...Beavis...you' re a badass

RFGuy · 2012-09-03T18:22:24+00:00

You, you are a genius!!!

Lochcelious · 2012-09-03T18:48:25+00:00

I now wonder if in the only one here that sets the roll of paper near the toilet and I just pick it up and take some.

TL;DR: I don't place toilet paper rolls on a holder.

macncheez_ · 2012-09-03T19:01:16+00:00

Tou-fucking-ché

RaymondLuxury-Yacht · 2012-09-03T16:52:15+00:00

Solution: Don't get a cat.

kqvrp · 2012-09-03T19:55:43+00:00

Solution: get rid of your cat and get an animal that isn't a total douche. Source: I'm a dog person.

One con of having a cat.

I think you mean the right way.

Cat people = Wrong people

rarisgod · 2012-09-03T16:52:12+00:00

Better solution - get rid of the cat.

thegrayman · 2012-09-03T16:24:29+00:00

my cats used to do that until I started putting rat traps under the rolls, problem solved

Why I insist o hanging my TP in the underhand fashion: there is no wrong way. It's fucking toilet paper, it doesn't become impossible to tear if you hang it the other way. Nor does it stop cleaning feces off of your asshole.

Of all the stupid crap reddit harps on about this one annoys me the most. I get it, you all saw the same episode of Martha Stewart 15 years ago, but it's weird and creepy that you're obsessed with how people wipe their assholes.
