So when putting a new bog roll on the spinner does the loose end go over the top as is proper? or dangle down behind where it's hard to find the end? (all puns intended)

99% of the time it's over the top but when the grandkids show up they go down under. At least until they get a little bigger and quit spooling it off.  Cheers!!!

I put mine under on account of my cats just loooove spinning the roll like crazy. If I put it over the top, I come home to piles of shredded TP in every bathroom.

Damn that's funny and I bet it's frustrating as hell.  I hate it when people put it on underneath, bothers me so much!

That roll is just for show.  Grab the naked fatty on the tank and go to town.

We had a (late, lamented) cat that did that. Unfortunately, putting the roll under just meant we got clawed up rolls of toilet paper, rather than rolls of usable, but unraveled, TP. He was a stubborn little bugger. We ended up having to take the TP off the roll and put it on top of the toilet tank until he found another hobby.

Our cats gave up on that, thank goodness. For awhile, they'd be on it like a shot if you left the bathroom door open.
It's such a fine line between stupid and clever.

Just like everything else in life, I'm over the top!  ;D

Over the top.

  I stayed in a fancy hotel in Charleston once and there were gold knobs and flush handles. They even had a water fountin in the bathroom. It was kind of close to the floor and you had to bend way over to get a drink and the water wasn't as cold as I prefer but I thought it was a nice gesture.

Two years ago the brewmistress and I took our kids to the Dominican Republic. The boys had never seen a bidet before, and the younger one came out the first night and announced that the "wierd toilet wouldn't flush right"  Cleaning the bidet was not fun, but we got a good laugh out of it later!  ;D

Over the top. But usually the roll just sits within reach on the counter.
