It's time to find out the real nitty-gritty details about one another. Hopefully this doesn't tear the board apart. How do you prepare your toilet paper: are you a folder or a baller? Bonus question: does TP hang over the top of the roll or under the bottom?
Deep questions.

I never cared, but my mom sure does. Growing up, if I was mad at her, I'd change the TP & paper towels to under just to be a snot DH likes over top too. But, if you have a TP loving cat, under is the only way to maintain sanity & toilet paper.

Children are like casseroles; it takes a lot to mess them up.
I don't care which way it goes. I just wish somebody else would put s new roll on besides me!
This! Kinda. LOL. I'm a top person, but if my husband would actually put it on the roll and it was under, I'd be happy! It literally takes like 10 seconds! Come on!
I've never noticed how we do it! Had to check and it's on the top, but it might just be how we put the roll in this time. In other TP news, I made a mistake with my Amazon subscribe-and-save and now I have about 100 toilet paper rolls in the house. Having to stash them in every available cupboard!
@MaryNog I never paid attention to how I put the roll on until a few years ago when I noticed a debate on facebook. After that I became much more aware of it and decided I prefer on top. My husband prefers it rolling underneath and I think a part of that has to do with being left handed (who knows it very well may not). Also, we ended up setting up our toilet paper on the dash button because I was afraid I'd lose track of the subscribe and save and end up with too much or be a week out on a delivery and need TP. I love our dash buttons.
Does anyone feel like they are going through TP super fast lately? All these bathroom trips are starting to add up.
@Carly79 i haven't used the dash buttons yet, I'm afraid that I'd accidentally bump into them and end up with constant massive orders of stuff. It seems so convenient, though!
@MaryNog that was one of my hesitations too. The TP one was the first one we got and it actually hangs on a hook that is in our closet where we keep the TP. For the laundry detergent, I ended up sticking it to the side of the washer out of the way to make sure we didn't bump it. I have one for the lotion that we use for DS and that one worries me the most because I haven't found a spot to stick it so it's in the basket in the changing table (now in the nursery) and I'm afraid I'm going to bump it when I put stuff in the basket. The best part of the dash button is that once you use it once, the button itself is free so you aren't out anything if you don't like it. We actually got the first one during Prime days where the button only cost $.99 but we still got the $4.99 back on our first order so we made $4 on the deal I always seemed to be running out of TP outside of target runs and I hate paying grocery store prices for TP so it works out well for us.
DD1 found our dash button for garbage bags. I couldn't figure it out for the longest time and thought I had subscribed or something. We have 5 boxes of #160 count trash bags.
You ladies have just blown my mind with the concept of Dash Buttons and subscribe and save. I'm currently trying to convince DH why we need this in our lives. OMG we are living in the future!

@PMForbie We resisted but decided to give it a try. Life changer!! We also do the subscribe and save for our vitamins and diapers. So nice to have it show up and not have to worry about ordering when we are almost out or getting to the store.

@MaryNog one less thing to have to buy in bulk later. Just blame it on nesting.
