[net.misc] toilet paper

rms@ihuxn.UUCP (08/19/83)

The direction from which the toilet paper is removed from the roll can
be determined by the age and number of children in the house.  Kids like
to walk by and spin the roll, usually downward.  If the paper is coming
over the top of the roll, you end up with a pile on the floor.  So, in
homes with kids, the paper should always be removed from the bottom of
the roll.

OK.  Question.  What is the offical toilet paper of the 1984 Olympics?

Personally, I save time for later by separating all the little sheets as
soon  as I open a new  roll.  But  I've  never  resolved  the  IMPORTANT
question:  Should  the pile of sheets be  stacked  up  horizontally,  or
stood on end, between  bookends?  (And,  while we are at it, what is the
appropriate smiling face for biting sarcasm?)
