OVER, UNDER, 2 OR 3 PLY
Finally, at last, the enduring debate over whether the toilet paper should go over or under the roll has been settled with the emergence of an 1891 patent design of the modern toilet roll.
As old as modernity, the argument that has been known to be responsible for divorces and shouting matches between family members has been settled by 124 year old visual evidence.
The toilet paper roll patent, registered by Seth Wheeler of New York in 1891 clearly shows that the paper should go over and not under.
With the toilet paper issue now settled, we should now concentrate on other important First World arrangement problems, such as double – ply or triple – ply, or should the milk or Tea be poured first, or whether socks or pants should be put on first.
3 cheers for Seth Wheeler

Hard choices...lol...but I thought 2 ply is a must...first ply will simply not do...and I like my milk poured first before the tea...and the cup warmed before...lol...as for the dressing part...socks first!!...glad you posted this good debate topic!!
I know we all have preferences as to Milk first or tea first, and as for socks or pants mmmm.
But i would like to find the definitive answers to these questions, then maybe mankind can rest in peace.
My self i add milk to my coffee before the hot water, as i dont wish to burn the coffee, have you ever heard how the coffee screams when you add the water first.
Good to hear from you...coffee screams could be another debate topic...it could be a hot one...lol...
That could be culturally sensitive...as people use hands to eat...and the other one to wipe...lol...
Have a lovely day and hope you can solve the problem fast.
Simple really,
It is easier for the ladies to lower the seat than it is for us men to raise the seat.
Besides, ladies can always sit on the porcelain and dont necessarily need the seat down.
No you should still put it down. It's just the way we want. And NO, we are not ready to feel the porcelain. We women are more accustomed to plastic.
According to Feng shui it is best kept covered. So I actually have no problem with Toilet seat.
Yes i agree, put the lid down altogether.
As for the other important issues you've raised, me thinks it's going to take longer than 124 years to solve...
Nice to you back blogging
The new toilets after using will wash you out with cold or warm water then you wilbe dryed with warm air or cold air:
Then the debate wilbe .Do we like tobe dryed with hot air or cold air ?
i don't think i could ever be found guilty of supplying useful information.
As for finding the answers for the rest, i think i will leave that upto others to find the definitive answers.
i think the french have already invented that type of toilet.
You could be right...lol...no one likes toilet paper that breaks!!...
Here in Australia we actually have toilet paper available in 4 ply.
Go figure.

How boring would life be, if we didnt spend sometime (very little in fact) in trying to solve some of the great mysteries of our time.
If we remove the seats from all toilets, then men and women would not have the ongoing argument of
"Seat up, Seat down"
Maybe it's best all seats were removed for peace sake.
Q) Why does Bobby Limb get up so early each morning?
