Have an opinion on toilet paper? I'm sure you do because we ALL do. Now you have your chance to make your voice heard. We all know there's only one right answer to the age old question ...
I know which way is right. Do you?

Over for sure. Thank goodness my husband is equally passionate about toilet paper positioning.
Mr. Pickles
Under. Period.
Cindy G.
Under, because when I go to rip it when it's over, I always end up unrolling some of the roll, which drives me crazy. I can use the weight/mass of the roll to rip against when it's under, so I don't have to re-roll the roll!
And, even though I know that over is the "right" way, I decided that this was a minor rule to break :)
Uncle Shifty
Neither. Use the napkins you took from Tim Horton's.

i can't remember such a heated debate since we last discussed the correct pronunciation of the word "controversy". X

Wow, such strong replies. So many replies! I thought I'd leave this infographic for those who want to read into it more... http://www.engineeringdegree.net/over-under/
YES, there has been major studying done here!
BTW, Karen, rather than seeing how you dispense your TP, I want to know if you 'creatively' store your TP.

In the house it's definitely over. However, I used to work in a place where there were those dispensers that have two rolls stacked in them, and in that case, always under because once that top roll drops down a little it is too difficult to unroll and over roll. Does that even make sense?

doesn't matter. it still wipes the same.
Anita
Prefer over, but don't wig out when it's under. My preference for over was validated when I read that people who live in scorpion territory should put their TP over so you can see a scorpion hiding out on your roll before you use it! No scorpions here, but spiders are a good enough reason for me!
Jonalynn
Over and for those that use the excuse that someone or something unrolls it when it's in the correct position~ if you flatten the roll a wee bit, it doesn't unwind as easily. Problem solved. ;)
Amanda
Hahaha...wow, I had no idea that people had such strong opinions about this! I have had people call me a liar before because I like both chunky and creamy peanut butter (apparently you MUST feel strongly one way or the other), but who knew it extended to toilet paper? I just put it on any ol' way.
Pat
Under? Why bother asking. BTW - is that really your TP holder? Love it.
Tess
Such passion for TP. It's UNDER folks. But if the hub puts it on, there is no right or wrong; I'm just grateful.
Holly@loveoflifeblog
Oh mag gah, OVER! I don't understand this "under" budiness. It's too much work. And I don't like to work when I'm on the toilet.
Mindy
Um yeah, I just put it on whichever way it ends up in my hands. I don't need to add another thing to my list of things to obsess about, certainly not which way the TP is "supposed" to be on. I had no idea people were so adamant about this. Too funny.
Lorri-Ann
Under-under-under. My girlfriend and I have been arguing this for years. We finally came to the realization that ease of use depends on how you spin the roll.
Molly
This is a constant battle in my house. My wife puts it on under, I change it to over. Every. Single. Time. My mother in law does the under thing too... I just don't get it.
Another Karen
Back when we used regular TP holders, I kept it over.
After remodeling the bathrooms, I placed the holders vertical (not horizontal) and now the rolls stand upright, so we are left side/right side rather than over/under.
Anna
UNDER!!! I even change the ones at work because I can't stand over!
christine
BTW...I like to do folded paper flowers on my toilet paper rolls.A precious little gift for everyone.I am such a big,fat liar.

For convenience and entertainment, we have a free standing paper holder. One way it's over, spin the unit around, and it's under. Justice for All! OVER.
