When I first read the title, I thought it was going to be a survey of whether you like your TP to hang over or under the roll....

Hey, I'm happy when mine even takes the time to change the roll...and we have the kind that's just a hook, it's not like you even have to mess with that spring-loaded deal. You just nudge the used roll off, it falls in the trash below and you slide the new one on. It's not magic.

C'mon, AlphaFrog - you know all little boys are told that it IS magic. That the toilet paper fairy will come when no one is around, and replace the roll. It's maaaaaaaaggggggic . . .

That's the first lesson in potty training my little boy is going to learn. My daughter actually learned even before she started training (you know that stage, where they're facinated with the potty...especially the flushing part, but aren't quite ready to use it...) where the extra TP was.

And one thing that always impressed me about my ex boyfriend...he lived in a house with his brother and his dad, and that toilet seat was ALWAYS down. 3 men, no women, toilet seat down. Amen.

Who started this potty talk anyway?

May I recommend that be the SECOND thing he learns? Putting the seat UP should be the first. My son used to "forget" to put the seat up. My husband used to find it funny when I would scream from the bathroom when I would discover the mess (usually becuase I would sit in it). Anyway, then my husband got his when he discovered that the toilet was not properly sealed around the base, and the extra pee that ran down the sides was actually getting into the subfloor- which not only gave the bathroom a wonderful aroma that you couldn't get rid of, but it caused damage to the subfloor that had to be ripped out and replaced. He doesn't find it so funny anymore.

you think thats bad? mines wont let me keep an extra roll in the bathroom! i usually have one under our sink or in the magazine basket, and it always winds up back in the hall closet on the top shelf...i will never understand the logic in that. i do enjoy when he runs out and asks me to get him a new roll. i usually say no.

Me, too. I'm an underling m'self.

Anyway, I always squat and if, for any reason at all I accidentally touch something, I go into convulsions until I can get to a shower. I also have no clue how poop ends up on the floor, but it happens all the time where I work.

I'd just like to say that anytime I can make people laugh loud enough that others think they're crazy, and/or nearly choke to death, it's a good thread. That goes x2 when it's a poop thread.

Today, I HAD to use the public restroom, i take a two hour public transportation ride home,

so i had no other choice. So of course the first thing i look for is some paper in the holder, none was there. (This is a single stall bathroom.) I didnt have to look far, the maintence people put a nice roll of domestic tissue (the kind you use in your private home), on a make shift toilet paper holder. And should you run out of that, there were two other random rolls, sitting on the diaper changing station.

This made me feel extremely uncomfortable. thinking about all the people before me, grabbing and feeling all up on the toilet paper before i got the chance too. what a day!

my mom taught us early on if there were no disposable seat covers, you do it yourself with some toilet paper...lots of it.

well it was the first thing i taught my daughter when she was potty training. one day she hopped up, said "mama i gotta pee!" and ran off to our bathroom. i sat listening for a flush and some handwashing, but never heard anything. i got up, and she was standing in the bathroom, panties around her ankles, lining our toilet seat with paper! between laughing and crying i asked her what she was doing, and she said "you told me not to sit on the nasty toilet seats!"

thats my girl *sniff!
