Whodda thunk it!?! We have taken "bathroom humor" to a whole new level!
Minnie Whine du Jour...but on topic:
My 81-year-old room mate told me she changed my toilet paper roll. I said, "Why would you do that? The housekeeper takes care of it. Besides, there are two rolls...only one was empty." She said, "I use my own roll." Me, "What do you do take paper in with you?" She, "No...I just use my own." OK! I went in to pour something in the sink, and looked over at the toilet tissue...two rolls of exactly the same kind. I came out and said, "I thought you had some special kind of toilet paper...it's the same on both rolls." She said, "Yes...but mine is the one on the right. Yours is the one next to it on the left." I just looked at her in disbelief and said, "I'm glad you explained it to me...I wouldn't want to make a mistake and use yours. You are one strange lady."
Since we're on the subject, I'm taking a poll. Do you roll under or over?

Before I had cats, back when I was a babe in arms, I used to 'roll over' but the cats discovered they could unroll the whole damn thing by pawing at it! So now it's 'roll under' to make them give up in frustration. Hah!
Nonny, your roommate is most meticulous - bordering on insane, or inane. Be sure you use the correct roll, wouldn't want to disturb the order of her universe!
Someone told me once, it doesn't 'take' all kinds to make a world, there just ARE all kinds!
Nonny, you'd be one hell of a cool roommate! You are hilarious! I'm sure if we were roommates the hysterical laughter would lead us to be sought after for stand up/sit down comedy, or else avoided like the plague! Depending on whether one was 'funny ha ha' or 'funny strange'. I'd love to share a room with you. 'Twould be a hilarious privilege to trade jokes with an expert!

It took me a while, a few posts back, to realize what TMI means! For me it's Too Much Information vs Not Enough Brain Cells! I have a hard time processing even too little information!:wtf2
pages in the outhouse..or "honeyhouse"...in Missouri..in frozen wintertime.

Least...No, you probably wouldn't want to room with me. When I'm in my room, you might think I'm "anti-social"...I like to be able to do my own thing without interruption. Especially if I'm on the computer...PLEASE, don't bother me! Unfortunately, people who aren't "into" pc's don't understand.
When I'm not on the computer, I'm out tooling around, in the activities room, or doing volunteer things. I love to socialize, joke around, and have fun...but, on my own terms. The few people I've made friends with here seem to "get it".
Today was busy...I sold 50 bingo tickets at $l/per...decorated a pumpkin...went to lunch...spent some time on the pc. Now, it's almost time for dinner...then, I'll try to do some work on my Halloween costume. By then, it will be time for beddy-bye. But, if I keep busy, the day's don't drag.
DG...you triggered a memory. Many years ago, I used the loo at a gas station that didn't have any paper. The only thing I had in my purse was a pair of white gloves. Uh, huh! Hated to throw them out, but wasn't going to put them back in the purse.
Over or under? I do it under...son always did it over. We were always changing it back and forth. Too bad every bathroom doesn't have the dispensers where you pull the sheets out from the bottom.

Ha Ha these posts have made me laugh.....I am DEFINITELY wearing my socks on my feet to keep them warm.
Jersey if "under" is like the picture below, then I am most definitely an "over" person. Don't ask me what Operation Loo Roll is cos I have no idea!
Storm, here's some Andrex for your siblings and for you to take into "Public Conveniences"

In turkey they make you pay to use the tolit...and I got to the front of the line really needed to pee...gave them 2 coins...and they wouldn't accept it cause the coin had just been taken out of circulation and you had to go to a big town to get the money back......
I beggged for a coin from the people in line....it was soooooo embarrasing!
And in one bathroom i heard this little voice in the stall next to me....help me please help me please....so quiet you could hardly here it....ended up there was a japaneese tourist in there who had larengitus...the wash room woman only spoke arabic but couldn't even here her calling..she'de been stuck a long long time.....eventually we got her out and got huge mega hugs from all

I've always thought it was funny picturing a whole line of men standing at the urinals. But, how convenient it is for them...while we have at least two garments to pull down and up. No wonder there's always a long line at the women's room.
I took a photo when I was in Wales of a loooong line of women waiting to get into the men's room...a couple of women on our trip took over the facility, because the bus driver only allowed us a 45 minute rest stop. I called the photo "The Queue at the Loo".

...sigh... in the last few hours I'm feeling very sick, nauseated and dizzy and either too cold or too hot. I'm going back to the doctor cause I'm sick of this, literally sick of feeling sick.
