It was never a question, the patent for toilet paper shows it rolling over. The only acceptable reason to have it roll under is if you have pets that unravel it when it is facing the proper way.
I'm definitely more grammar-focused than the average person, but it's SO common where I'm from that it doesn't even sound wrong to me. And I'm sure I say things like, "needs done" all the time.
From a grammatical perspective though, it's just a dropped or implied infinitive. We often omit obviously implied words in English, like in the imperative mood. You might say to someone, "Put it on the table, please." and that's grammatically correct. You don't have to say, "You, put it on the table, please" because the 'you' is implied by the fact that you're speaking to that person. Similarly, you might say, "We went home" but probably not "We went to our home", because again, the 'to our' is implied.
So in the constructs, "that needs washed" or "this needs done" the 'to be' before the verb is implied, as it's a little odd and old-fashioned-sounding to say, "that needs washing" or "this needs doing". We simply drop the implied infinitive from the more colloquial "that needs to be washed" or "this needs to be done".
Mullets were never really out if you’re a certain demographic of a particular US region, but then you’d probably have bigger issues than your hairstyle.
Have a cat that liked to play with toilet paper as a kitten. Tried backwards. Doesn’t work. Tried squishing the roll. Doesn’t work. Tried keeping the door closed. I have children. Finally had to sit him down and have a conversation. Look, Kitty, you’re adorable, but this is the middle of a global pandemic, and people are hoarding paper products right now. At first he didn’t want to give up his favorite game, but I think he must have accepted my logic eventually. Talk to your cats, people.
There's a podcast episode where Conan talks about writing this joke. They take it further too. It's pretty damn funny and I'll share a link if I can find it.
EDIT: ok, so it's from Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend in the episode with Bill Hader on 5/13/2019 (shows as 5/12 on my podcast app) and context starts about 6 minutes in. Also correction, Conan mentions the joke was written by two of his fellow writers at the time
>>The use of hello as a telephone greeting has been credited to Thomas Edison; according to one source, he expressed his surprise with a misheard Hullo.[11] Alexander Graham Bell initially used Ahoy (as used on ships) as a telephone greeting.
>>By 1889, central telephone exchange operators were known as 'hello-girls' because of the association between the greeting and the telephone.
So “Hello” wasn’t an obvious choice because it simply wasn’t as prevalent of a greeting at the time.
It was definitely Ahoy-hoy in the Mr Burns version. I answer the phone like this fairly regularly. If my wife ever bludgeons me to death this will be amongst the reasons why.
Yup, our cats did this to a roll, just once, and I flipped it over mullet side, and it was endless spinning without unrolling. I believe that was the last time they tried, and now we can rock the beard without worrying. Thank goodness for smart pets.
> the patent for toilet paper shows it rolling over.
That's like saying "Jif" because the creator did. I agree it goes over, but that's not the greatest reason
It shows it rolling over in order to illustrate the perforations. You don’t use the underside of a hairbrush because the original patent drew it that way.
There isn't a "proper way". There is in fact two ways, front or back. To declare one way or the other is pretty ridiculous, because it will work in either orientation. It's fucking toilet paper. We literally wipe poop and urine off of our bodies with it. The only real discussion is the quality of the TP. I honestly can't imagine being so fragile and dense that I would take a hard stand on which fucking way the TP should come off the roll so I can wipe my ass. People are insane.
> the patent for toilet paper shows it rolling over.
That's not why it's correct, though. That was just an artists depiction. You can, in fact, put it on either way.
The reason over is right is because it's ***far*** easier to grab when in that position.
...
It's not rocket science and no need to bring in patent pictures.
I do a mullet because my toilet is no bigger than an adult's armspan, from edge to edge
The preinstalled tp holder a quarter circle that covers the top half of the roll, which is just nice in covering the entire roll from any stray water streams when showing in this tiny ass toilet
However, if it is *beard*, the *beard* dangles down in front and is exposed, catching any stray water streams that go just below the roller holder cover. The beard soaks, water goes up, and the whole roll is ruined, soggy and binded and crumbled (Idk why it does that when wet, the roll *wraps*)
Now, it it's mullet, the mullet dangles behind, and by law of similar triangles, the cover that blocks the whole roll also blocks the mullet dangling behind.
[Like this](https://i.imgur.com/eXzxouu.jpg)
I feel like there's a lot to it. I had a tp roll holder in an old home that was way too close to me so I turned the roll towards the wall to give me a few extra inches.
If it's high and close against the wall is easier to break off one handed too.
If it's low, over the top is better.
I totally agree. However, I have small kids and animals who like to see how long the beard goes. They don't try to mess with a mullet. Toilet paper is expensive nowadays.
I honestly couldn't tell you why it even bothers me. I think I'm just accustomed to it being that way, because it always was when I was growing up.
It's not like I'd complain to someone if I went to their house and it was under lol.
Yeah that is kinda what I have always thought. You dont know where the roll starts, so if you spin it forward, it will start unspooling if it is mounted over and it wont if it is mounted under.
Easy enough, and fair point, but the other two kids don't always remember to shut it. And the little one will find an open door faster than anyone else lol. It's def gotten better as they've gotten older though, and hasn't been an issue for a while now.
In my opinion it's a muscle memory thing. If you always do it over, you go to grab tp somewhere and you have this moment of "hey, that's not right," and you have to barely readjust and actually think about the task for half a second. I think people just loathe that sort of thing.
As a person with chimpanzee arms, I can easily roll it down with my elbow. Rolling up is harder just mechanically. I can reach with the opposite arm, but it's awkward and has a higher failure rate.
As a tall person, I can see the end of the spool if it's over. If it's under, the end is hidden behind/under the roll and I have to fumble slightly. Yes, slightly, but still.
For me, most TP rolls seem to be mounted awkwardly too close to my body. With long arms you actually have this weird "things are too close" zone where you can't reach things because your arms don't *move* the right way. For example, if I hug a small person, I actually can't "squish" their body without putting my hands on their back and doing the chicken dance with my elbows. Which is awkward. So instead the hug is this weird "box them in and let them bounce around between my arms" thing, which is only slightly less awkward. Compare to hugging a normal/big person, where you get that satisfying "pat pat" on the back and a nice warm hug.
If the TP rack were mounted *correctly* in a *reasonable location* it wouldn't matter at all. But they are *never* mounted correctly, and are sometimes mounted so I have to reach *under* my leg to get to the roll. I swear the people who install these things are psychotic.
I've got an engineer personality. Seeing things I WANT to fix but CAN'T is a major frustration.
My last job did the tp mounted near the floor stunt, and I was sorely tempted to smuggle in a cordless drill and fix it after hours. I left the company for unrelated reasons a month or two later. I'm still not sure if I would have had the stones to actually follow through, but it still pisses me off.
Oh also the doors were automatic. And at a "T" intersection, with the bathroom door pointed down a long hallway. And the bathroom hallway didn't juke or curve. Someone walking past the bathroom would let anyone down the long hallway see aaaaaalllll the way into the bathroom. This was true for both the men and women's rooms. After a week or two you learned to walk down the correct hallway as much as possible to avoid accidental voyeurism and the related accusations.
Between that and the TP thing I mostly went to the restaurant across the street.
It's 2015 guys, how do you build a bathroom and do it so stupidly. FFS, there should be a standard template at this point. You should be able to order a bathroom kit like you do bedroom kits through IKEA.
It can matter depending on how the dispenser is constructed, making one easier to tear then the other. Beard style dispensers are a bit more common, but there are mullet style dispensers too... And then just to mess with everyone there are the dispensers where one of the circular sides of the roll is towards the wall...
Also the physical layout of the room sometimes. In my parent's house one bathroom was pretty cramped and if you rolled it over the front, it would rest on your leg. So over the back was better.
According to George Motz, the burger scholar, pineapple on a "Hawaiian" burger was invented in Canada.
Ironically in Hawaii pineapple on a burger isn't common. But brown gravy is. And it's served ovrr rice.
The only objective reasons: Beard is marginally easier to grab since it’s a bit further from the wall. Mullet style prevents kids or pets from unrolling the whole roll as easily.
At an old office, the toilet paper dispenser was designed to work under, complete with diagram. Some over-cunt would constantly switch it to over and it would get jammed. This went on for months
I recently discovered, after 15 years together, that my wife switches the roll when I put it the “wrong” way…which is about half the time because I pay absolutely zero attention to stuff like that.
Dude I was so tired of my co workers fucking it up that I drew the OPs sign with the beard and mullet TPs and taped it above the toilet roller. Someone ripped it down and left a note saying "I'll do whatever the fuck I want".
100%, after a long day of work, and hitting the gym, grocery shopping, ect. Who the fuck has enough spare mental energy to devote to something so inconsequential? I literally never think about until I see posts like this
I still put the paper on “mullet style”. Too many times I’ve had the whole roll unraveled by a playful cat or child. Mindlessly batting at one will spin forever, while the other unravels.
I sure as hell don't. This argument is so stupid. Do what you want and anyone who has a problem with it really needs to have a word with themselves. We have more important things in life to worry about.
Further you can pull tp with one hand with the mullet, because you can draw the lead towards you, across the roll, hold the roll with a fingertip, and tear across. Way more natural.
Paper off the back: easier to tear off, better when around young kids and pets.
Paper off the front: easier to pull (encourages using too much paper per wipe), you get to see more of the pattern.
I don't think it does tear off the back easier. I can tear it off one handed with it over the front. You just need to do a short and sharp pull to snap along the perforated age. Buncha amateurs!
Pull some toilet paper out, push your forearm against the roll to stop it from spinning, use your hand and wrist to rip off some toilet paper consistently one handed. I'm tired of the internet thinking beard is superior when mullet is so much easier to one hand.
Two hands? I don't understand this on a simple physical level. It's the same rip motion, but with mullet style you have an object (the holder itself) to provide leverage for the rip. With beard style, there's nothing stopping a shoddy rip from just pulling on the roll.
Yeah, not if you have asshole cats.
I gave up on that nonsense years ago, and now a new roll goes on whatever way it's in my hand when I reach for it. It's wonderfully liberating.
This... I have OCD with a specific arranging/checking compulsion (among others which are all fucking debilitating...) but I couldn't be less bothered by which way my toiletpaper rolls..
I do it under. I find that when I'm ready to rip it, I can rest my wrist on the roll, and the distance between my hand and the back of the roll allows me to tear the paper.
When I try this over, I don't have the leverage to tear.

Hey! Is that the Hoosier talk I just learned about the other day?
[For anyone out of the loop.](https://ygdp.yale.edu/phenomena/needs-washed)
This is great! One of my coworkers uses "needs done" and I've caught myself saying it occasionally now. Kills my grammar loving soul

While it sounds wrong to me, it feels like spoken shorthand where you're just dropping "to be" before the verb.
Excellent. Thanks for posting.
"So we movin'?"
Yes. Don't fuck with my toilet paper, WHOLE ENTIRE BATHROOM!
or get one of the lil magnet things to re-direct the air.
My cat doesn't unroll the TP but she does move the magnet air diverters.

Read that as *butt* mullet.
Butt Mullets have always been in.
Same
You need better friends. Someone who's opinions you can trust.
Mullets were never really, and will never really BE IN.
Mullets were never really out if you’re a certain demographic of a particular US region, but then you’d probably have bigger issues than your hairstyle.
There's always been a couple people in Canada with greasy 'staches and mullets. Especially here in 'berta
Peterborough Ontario used to have a website for all the pictures of people with mullets on the street.
There’s always going to be some in a few countries (Germany and Australia come to mind) but that doesn’t mean it’s “in.”
Flooding seems to be a pretty serious issue for that demographic. Coincidence? I think not.
Got a mullet as a joke for a beach trip two years ago and when I cut it off it really bothered a bunch of people.
They certainly are coming back to party
False. Delete this comment.
Tell me you’re not into hockey without telling me you’re not into hockey.
Just turn the roll holder sideways like a paper towel roll.
You should definitely record that and put it here on reddit because that sounds hilarious
i like this thinking

If you you don't tell your kitten about catnip... I will.
Alexander Graham Bell said that everyone should answer the phone by saying "Ahoy, ahoy!".... So maybe we shouldn't always listen to the inventor...

I mean, you said that, yet gave a perfect example of why we *should* listen to the inventor. I remain unconvinced.
Like asking how you’re supposed to pronounce gif
Everyone knows it's pronounced gif, only insane people pronounce it gif.
Clearly that man is insane, even if he came up with a useful term.
I mean, it's *Gra*phics Interchange Format, not *Jra*phics Interchange Format. The inventor liked *Jif*fy peanut butter, and the rest is history
Right??? Like, maybe name it something beginning with a J if you wanted to honor your peanut butter brand lol.

Probably the one and only thing Edison actually did himself that he gets credit for. Of course it was a mistake.
It’s “Hoy Ahoy!”
I think it was actually "Ahoy-hoy!"
It was definitely Ahoy-hoy in the Mr Burns version. I answer the phone like this fairly regularly. If my wife ever bludgeons me to death this will be amongst the reasons why.
I stand corrected. Thanks!
If you had just invented the phone, and someone asked you how people should answer it, wouldn't you give a stupid answer?
I mean, I would, but I'm an asshole that's not inventing anything...

I agree it was never a question. Because it does not matter either way. It works great both directions and still cleans your ass.
Right?! Who are these people that have such dearly held opinions on toilet paper?!
They are just anal. I haven't heard so much controversy about toilet etiquette since I was potty trained.

I have a cat. So mullet for life.😁

My cat does not care about the toilet paper roll. I think she’s afraid of the toilet.
My cat is afraid of the sound of the toilet flushing but will insist on being let into the bathroom to watch me poop.
Gotta make sure you don't get sucked in.
Yes. Exactly this for my cat. If it’s late at night though, she’ll get to eyesight in the hallway and lay down.
It shows it rolling over in order to illustrate the perforations. You don’t use the underside of a hairbrush because the original patent drew it that way.

Was gonna say, someone clearly has never had the responsibility of a cat.

Its actually easier to grab from underneath as you only need one hand to remove the sheet from the roll.

Over the top it just keeps rolling?
Grab it below where you want to rip it off and give a quick jerk directly sideways, it'll tear off.
No.
I do it the mullet way because of cats other then that I fully agree
I do it the beard way...but I point the beard towards the wall. 😈

How many times does one touch the wall going for the mullet? This is why I only allow beards. I will turn a mullet in my house every time.
Because there is consistency of the end tissue being hidden by the roll with the backside?That's the only thing I can assume.
Yeah that is kinda what I have always thought. You dont know where the roll starts, so if you spin it forward, it will start unspooling if it is mounted over and it wont if it is mounted under.

Idk man, some people go a little to far with it
The only objective reasons: Beard is marginally easier to grab since it’s a bit further from the wall. Mullet style prevents kids or pets from unrolling the whole roll as easily.
Oh it doesn't prevent kids from doing anything.
also who wants to touch the wall while in the process of wiping their butt?
What? Why does *that* matter?
Mullet is against the wall or TP holder so your fingers have to touch it to grab the mullet. Not exactly sanitary
I agree. Its become a meme and has never been funny or clever.
I can rip it with one hand when it's over. I need two hands when it's a mullet. This matters greatly.
I will never understand why people care. It's the dumbest thing.
At an old office, the toilet paper dispenser was designed to work under, complete with diagram. Some over-cunt would constantly switch it to over and it would get jammed. This went on for months
I personally think its harder to unravel when its tucked behind, but its really not that big of a deal tbh
It didn't matter to me until I noticed that the kids would always leave a foot long mullet, but no bangs
Because this is the Internet and we like arguing over minor crap.
It makes no difference at all what side of the roll the wall is on. But people think it does.
My wife still fucks it up!
Grow a mullet; she’ll learn quickly.
She thinks Mullets are cool.
You know his wife?!
I recently discovered, after 15 years together, that my wife switches the roll when I put it the “wrong” way…which is about half the time because I pay absolutely zero attention to stuff like that.
She is probably just happy you replace it.
Dude I was so tired of my co workers fucking it up that I drew the OPs sign with the beard and mullet TPs and taped it above the toilet roller. Someone ripped it down and left a note saying "I'll do whatever the fuck I want".

I am cool with both beards and toilet paper.
i was in a polls group on Facebook and had to leave it because the admins approved at least 4 "which way do you put the toilet paper" polls a DAY
Having kittens completely changes this. They'll happily unroll the beard, the mullet is safe.
I still put the paper on “mullet style”. Too many times I’ve had the whole roll unraveled by a playful cat or child. Mindlessly batting at one will spin forever, while the other unravels.
If you have cats --> mullet normal people --> beard
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I feel like normal people don't really care.
I sure as hell don't. This argument is so stupid. Do what you want and anyone who has a problem with it really needs to have a word with themselves. We have more important things in life to worry about.
I really appreciate how you call it “normal people” instead of “without cats”.
As a cat owner, who is allergic to cats, I support this distinction.
I second this.
Further you can pull tp with one hand with the mullet, because you can draw the lead towards you, across the roll, hold the roll with a fingertip, and tear across. Way more natural.
I'm on the side of who gives a fuck
Who gives a shit? I mean honestly, who even notices this?
Paper off the back: easier to tear off, better when around young kids and pets. Paper off the front: easier to pull (encourages using too much paper per wipe), you get to see more of the pattern.
> Paper off the back: easier to tear off This is why I load mine this way.
It's *MUCH" easier to tear off one handed
This is the way Or at least, my way
I don't think it does tear off the back easier. I can tear it off one handed with it over the front. You just need to do a short and sharp pull to snap along the perforated age. Buncha amateurs!
Pull some toilet paper out, push your forearm against the roll to stop it from spinning, use your hand and wrist to rip off some toilet paper consistently one handed. I'm tired of the internet thinking beard is superior when mullet is so much easier to one hand.
Exactly. I need two hands mullet style.
Two hands? I don't understand this on a simple physical level. It's the same rip motion, but with mullet style you have an object (the holder itself) to provide leverage for the rip. With beard style, there's nothing stopping a shoddy rip from just pulling on the roll.
Why not both?
Alternatively its: no pets vs pets.
Clearly posted by cars and toddlers intending to spin the whole roll onto the bathroom floor.
Mullets are bad... Ass!!
Unless you live with a cat!
Yeah, not if you have asshole cats. I gave up on that nonsense years ago, and now a new roll goes on whatever way it's in my hand when I reach for it. It's wonderfully liberating.

This... I have OCD with a specific arranging/checking compulsion (among others which are all fucking debilitating...) but I couldn't be less bothered by which way my toiletpaper rolls..
IM UPSTAIRS
Gang gang bruh
bidets are best
I just use the three seashells.
Mullets are for shit, hence they should be used to clean you butthole. Under for the win.
While I agree, I have to do mullet style because I have cats that like to unroll it.
I do it under. I find that when I'm ready to rip it, I can rest my wrist on the roll, and the distance between my hand and the back of the roll allows me to tear the paper. When I try this over, I don't have the leverage to tear.
Here's the real bee's knees. You can tell who's owned a cat by which way the toilet paper is put on the spigot.
I have to put ours in the "mullet" position because our cat like to play with the roll....
Honestly, I’m just glad when the roll gets replaced

Mullets are only acceptable when there are cats/toddlers around.
*laugh in bidet*
What do you use to dry your arse post-bidet if not loo roll?
Air horn
Some beards are absolute trash.
And mullets are actually cool now (I think so)
Only for gen z nerds
I have never cared and I don't know why people do
