I actually have no idea which way round I put the toilet roll. Generally when I am having a wee I am trying too hard to remember what I was about to do before I decided to have a wee on the way past the bathroom, to notice anything about toilet paper.
Besides which there is a much more annoying bathroom habit I have recently become aware of: using mouthwash and then screwing the lid back on without washing the mouthwash out of it. Very sticky bathroom with grouting now permanently dyed blue grr.
Well yes - I have never considered the oritentation of my loo roll up until now. It seems I now live with someone who cares a lot about which way round it goes (and is happy to turn it round himself, it's not an issue). I was just curious as to which of us was the weirdo. Him for caring, or me for not caring - looks like it's me from the poll results.
The sticky mouthwash problem also happens with washing liquid - however careful you are, there are always leftovers dribbling down the bottle and making it gummy.
Hah! I would have guessed washing up liquid. We use Morning Fresh, which would build up dribble round the nozzle if I didn't regularly wipe it down.
As for laundry detergent, I thought you had the same fancy lids we do that have a sort of double rim on the bottle so the measuring bit can dribble back into the container?

I'm not convinced that by not caring you are being odd. Or if it is odd, it's at least a good odd.
I don't care either, but if someone made a request that they prefer it one way or another, I'd try to follow it because they care and it's polite to respect other people's quirks if it makes no odds to you (which I assume is what everyone else generally does as well!)
Well yes, I do attempt to put the toilet roll in "right" way round for exactly that reason. The trouble is, I'm so far from caring that I've been finding it difficult even to remember that I ought to be thinking about which way round it goes in :)
Possibly this unexpectedly vocal thread will help remind me...

All it will remind me of is that people are strange.
I mean, I'll get it right for a bit probably, but then get confused as to which way round was the right one because I must be doing it wrong, and then I'll probably end up switching and...
No, actually, since I live by myself, I probably won't. I may not even try it both ways round to see if I can actually tell the difference.
