          No, the door of a residential bathroom has a specific purpose, besides the normal door-related ones. It’s a vacant/occupied sign.

            I just look under the crack of the door to see if the light is on.

            Some folks prefer to keep the door shut, to keep from stinking the rest of the place up.

      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.

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

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

        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 hellbent on destroying TP, but he lives for it. Shreds it like he’s plucking a bird.

        I’ve had 2/5 cats I’ve had do it, so the roll always goes down the back. Kept my kid from unrolling it for about a week lol

      This is what I do but only because there is no wall directly in reach on the left or right of my toilet, only a wall behind me, which makes reaching the toilet paper annoying as shit

    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.

        The blower built into the bidet

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

          Idk, I can get behind (more like over) a bidet, but a butt blower seems unsanitary and stinky.

            😐

            ¯\(ツ)//¯

            Go look up studies from reputable researchers in universities on air based drying versus physical is all I can recommend if you’re skeptic of the method (not product manufacturers)

            People who think of the topic way more than I care to have concluded it’s the appropriate and superior method because they add it into their products when they otherwise don’t have to, and I don’t have the concern to persue it beyond that

            I can tell you no more than I have used both methods and aside from patting down to make sure I’m all clean, I utilize all the tools available on my bidet fully, and that it’s a far superior experience than not doing so

            I can also state that 5 people who have used my bidet while at my home convinced themselves to get the same one having had experienced it themselves without my having encouraged it in any capacity beyond stating “yeah it’s nice” when it’s commented on…

            I mean… who really wants to deeply discuss the topic, especially in person, beyond that

              I’m just saying that I’ve stayed in many nice hotels in Japan and the blower air always smells off and I can’t read the labels to know how to turn it off.

        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.

    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.

    The bidet is what we use personally, way better for the butt health and probably better for the environment lol

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

    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

    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.

    The left means you get a healthy dose of bathroom wall dust which is primarily made of pee.

    My roller is on the wall behind the toilet, so left is easier to actually tear off with one hand, right takes two hands.
