Ass wiping tech has come a long way. Thankfully.
They believed in a lot of stupid shit back then.
I prefer the look of overhand, but the oversize rolls pull better out of my inset holder when it’s underhand
The proper way to hang it, if you have cats, is the other way so they don’t bat it all off if the get access. This is why I do not have cats.
My cat has not once tried unraveling a toilet paper roll. He has stolen money before, but he steals shit, so that’s normal. But never toilet paper.
Haha mine will take coins off the table, and carry it off to her hiding spot. It’s the cutest thing. I got her a small box of toy pirate coins.
Oh, man. My mother had cats who would just attack tp or paper towels. We had them both hanging the ‘correct’ way, got tired of it and flipped em. Now, though, I stick to dogs lol
This could have saved relationships.
It’s halfway 2024 it’s time to move on to bidets.
Based and Hygiene Pilled
I use a bidet, I still need TP to clean up after the water does the job.
I know fancy bidets exist that will blow dry your arae, but what do I look like? A rich person? We got ours from Amazon for like $20.
TP use is way down, but it’s still needed in many cases.
You use toilet paper to dry off? Why not a towel?
A bidet ain’t 100% clean. Sometimes there is small residue which you notice when you dry with toilet paper. I got a handheld bidet btw and since installing it 10y ago I really hate pooping without.
In our culture we use soap and water to clean our asses after pooping. So a bidet+soap match made in heaven.
Before bidets we use a dipper to scoop water.
In our culture we just put in a new asshole every time we poop problem solved.
Scoop water from where‽
From a big bucket near the toilet.
Thank you for clarifying. My mind immediately jumped to “scooping water from the toilet bowl”. Glad this was not the case.
I just sit there and browse Lemmy while I wait for my ass to dry out. 😀
I’ve never paid a single bit of attention to which way it goes on. I spit into the face of this entire debate and it’s never done me any harm to do so. I’m a cat owner too. The roll goes on either way, it’s fine, and I’ll never change my mind.
Someday if you ever live with another person you’ll figure it out.
I’m happily married. Has never once been an issue.
Not for you…
Is your SO also a “super cool edge lord that bucks the trends of society”? Because you’re just so cool?
Nothing about being an edgelord or cool. Its just not a thing that’s ever been an issue in any relationship, even ones I fucked up. It’s not even a thing I ever once heard talked about anywhere aside from the internet. It’s just a shit post argument that doesn’t matter, regardless of how you do it. Just an empty little thing people like fighting about online for whatever reason. That’s what I spit into the face of.
Wtf says things like “spit in the face of”, and the other cring phrases you use.
Be better.Nah. I’ll be as cringe as I please. Don’t need your permission.
Ooh I just got a new idea for a new patent!
Wait. So if this i patented but has no specification about hanging it the other way, would that mean that one could patent toilet paper again, but hanging the other way?
You shouldn’t, but the patent office don’t care about inventive height and obviousness anymore
I don’t believe so. They will only award a new patent if yours is meaningfully different from previous technologies. I would suspect they would deem the other direction “not a meaningful difference.”
The internet disagrees.
I’m finally coming around to this after decades of being steered away from it by The Simpsons (https://youtu.be/CQod276-7Mo?si=F5_Suzq41QAK_Wtg).
Beards are based, mullets are cringe.
Obviously designed in a place without deadly spiders.
Can you explain why this matters, for people who don’t live with deadly spiders?
In Australia spiders like to hang out in places like where the outer layer of TP sits as it is a good hiding place for them. Especially Red Backs. Huntsmen like it too but will only kill by a jump scare caused heart attack.
I’ve never been more glad that I don’t live in Australia than right now
To be fair we don’t have bears, wolves or rabies.
I mean I live in CT, and technically I have wolves and bears, but neither are going to appear under my toilet paper
Sure, that’s great and so, but the creator of the Gif says the wrong way to say it so… the creator is not always right.
Well saying it the wrong way sounds too much like gift. How often are you talking about Jiff peanut butter?
As a choosey mom, you would be surprised how often it comes up.
~fuck you, Skippy~
As a Canadian in the UK…like at least once a month
Just to make sure to not take sides, I pronounce the ‘g’ as in ‘design’
I guess it’s fine gif you want to say it like that
Just use water lmfao
I use both toilet paper and water
The inventor also said it’s “jif”, and I ain’t saying that either. Also, the patent doesn’t indicate whther that’s the front view or the back view. It’s displaying a roll in a vacuum.
You’re right, of course. Patent illustrations traditionally show the item only from behind.
it’s amazing how much patent illustrations and my pornography have in common.
Patent illustrators show the item in the way that is most useful to describe the patent.
Mounting is not illustrated.
