I would "like" that, except ewwwwww!

And before people chime in on the under/over debate . . .

There you have it - it was designed "over".

Under is and always has been wrong. Putting it under places the sheet that much further from the "user" and the wall that the sheet is now up against can be a hindrance.

Over places everything closer to the user with uninhibited space behind it.

Can you believe Ann Landers got thousands of pieces of mail over this trivial issue back in the day?

Okay Glacier, OVER it is. But what is to guarantee a spider won't pay you a visit anyways?

Putting it upside down is actually useful if you have cats.

But my catless friends are just plain savages for hanging it upside down.

Hanging toilet paper is but trivial compared to catlessness. Who doesn't cats and why does this still happen?

Ummmmm. Toilet paper overage/underage is very serious business. You know; while you do your business.

After that, no one cares.

Nevermind someone being wrong on the internet, the idea of someone's bathroom having the toilet paper hanging wrongly could keep us here all night.

Karma. Put it on wrong, and Karma will show up to bit you on the hand.

When I visit people in their homes and notice that they have their roll hung incorrectly, I do them the immeasurable service of correcting the egregious wrong before more innocent people are needlessly affected.

It's the only decent option really.

My tap in the main bathroom is backwards (hot and cold reversed). I cannot figure out how to take the tap apart and reverse so I'm going to buy a new one, and use the existing for target practice.

Does the spigot swivel? If it does then take it out (the complete tap set) and turn it around.

Most bathroom faucets are fixed but al you need to do is remove the two water supply lines under the sink and switch them to the opposite side. Reverse them if you will.
