Recessed TP Dispensers: Sometimes “Under” Sucks
I am, as you know, a self-professed underer. Even I must admit however that sometimes, under sucks.
I was using the facilities in one of the buildings where I work today, when I was faced with the following roll of toilet paper, hung in the over fashion:

Do you see anything wrong with that? Neither do I, “over” is the proper usage in this scenario. Undering the TP means you’d practically be reaching back into the recessed area to retrieve it, and that’s just wrong. Which got me to thinking, perhaps the proper way to hang the toilet paper is really situation dependent. Perhaps I prefer under because in my house we don’t have any recessed toilet paper dispensers, and perhaps other people prefer over because they do.

Um. Over is the correct way. Especially when someone else is living in your house, free of charge, and every single time they replace the roll, it’s under, when I, every single time, switch it. TAKE A HINT!
