Cat owners and normal people

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 34 points 1 month ago

Tbf, the cat will wreak havoc with either roll.

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago (8 children)

People always say that. Like it was in every cat's nature to unroll the toilet paper when they see it. And it's the only argument they have. I have never seen a cat do this and I have a lot of friends with cats.

[–] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Consider yourself lucky. I still do it the normal way, but cats absolutely will unroll a toilet roll if it catches their attention.

[–] kn33@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

It entirely depends on the cat. Some cats will, others couldn't care less.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

My husband and I had a cat for nearly a decade and she never so much as looked at the TP roll. Our current gremlin has sprinted at top speed into the bathroom because he heard me open the cabinet where we started hiding the TP when he wouldn’t leave it alone. He actually tried to grab it out of my hands, and I had to play tug of war with him! I’ve never encountered any other cat as hellbound on destroying TP, but lives for it. Shreds it like he’s plucking a bird.

George Carlin.

There are only two kinds of people in the world.

Those who think there are only two kinds of people in the world, and those who don't.

Nah, see, that's baby shit. You still have toilet paper in the end.

There are two types of people in this world:

  • Those who have a bidet.
  • And the bidet-less.
[–] recursivethinking@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Wait. How are you guys drying your butts after the bidet? Are we not supposed to be using toilet paper? (asking for a friend)

[–] Justifier@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (7 children)

The blower built into the bidet

The better question is what are you checking to make sure it's all clean with

Some people let it dry naturally from rubbing the underwear. Though could probably be hard if you have hairy ass or in a cold climate.

[–] antsu@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

And in the first group there's a special VIP area for those who have a Japanese-style bidet.

Unfortunately this group is surprisingly large.

Ppl living with cats,
and ppl living without cats.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

We've never had this problem, somehow... I'm sure it can be a problem but I don't know how we avoided it

Right is the way the inventor intended it to be reloaded + it’s easier to access.

Left is the way parents and pet owners need to reload it + it’s harder to unroll by accident (or by purpose) good number of times.

Out of frame on the toilet basin/counter is the way people who don’t have a tp holder or don’t care to refill it put it.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean...the inventor of Q-Tips also says not to stick them in your ears, which is just objectively, morally wrong.

Those that throw out the roll when they know they will run out early on the next use, and those that keep using it until the end and replace the roll to add more mid wipe.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Why not replace the roll with the not yet empty roll atop?

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (8 children)

Animals will take it, kids will drop it on the floor and not tell you. Lots of reasons.

[–] WalrusDragonOnABike@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Simple fix; just don't have animals or children in the house. If you can't trust someone with that top roll, just artificially classify them into one of those groups and disallow them from your house.

All for the sake of saving a couple squares of TP every so often!

People that use levels and people that just drill holes

[–] SwingingTheLamp@piefed.zip 4 points 1 month ago

Always use the smaller roll first. If you use the bigger roll, it'll become the smaller, and vice versa, until both run out at about the same time. If you always use the smaller roll, it'll run out first, with the big roll in reserve, giving you a chance to replace the empty one with no TP supply disruption.

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Putting it on the dispenser is too much work. Just put it on top and spin a few squares off with your finger in the roll when you need it.

[–] mech@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

People who clean their toilet paper holder, and this guy?

[–] lmdnw@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Is the right way clearly shown in the patent illustrations? Unless you own a cat, the left way is wrong IMHO.

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago

start

I've got some news for you...

[–] brownsugga@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

This was settled years ago. Going off the photo, either option is fine but people that prefer the option on the right will lose their shit if you suggest either option is fine

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

Lazy people: attach a thing to the wall to hold Toilet paper? Naah

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah, right and ~~wrong~~ left

[–] mashr4@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

I could've sworn that there was research about over being the more higenic way. I argued with my brother over this. When I looked online the only research I found was about people who use the over way are more vocal about it

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Who. Fucking. Cares.

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

3 types, last one uses bidet and forgo wiping ass with dead trees.

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

How do you dry your ass tho? Are you just soaking your underwear everytime you pull your pants up?

[–] renrenPDX@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Butt towels, or wet wipes. Or some TP. Nothing if you’re a savage.
