Over or Under?

I found this press release while exercising my rights as a capitalist:

How Does America Roll?


You can even voice your opinion. And I have marked iCal so that January 27th is a recurring holiday.

  1. Probably not something I should admit, but I am in fact an "over". It is fairly easy to justify.

    Through experimentation I have determined that over is easier for me to manipulate with one hand without causing a vast quantity of extra tissue to unravel. Something about the conservation of angular momentum. Why that ever interested me I do not know. However, when I first heard about this, I was amused that other people had taken the time to consider the problem.

  2. I think their survey is biased. They do not consider sidewinders. Then there is the small percentage of people who don't roll.

    Right, Michelle?

    Another consideration -- if you are in the woods, and you have your fingers in the tube, and you wave it around to make the sheets unwind ...

  3. Maybe when you get to Congress you can initiate a government funded study to determine the effect of under or over on the environment, or the carbon usage of one versus the other, then pass a law requiring it to be one way or the other...

  4. Over. It is the way it has always been done in my house. Apparently it was the only thing my mom and dad agreed on. I did an under job once with one of the mega rolls, and by little hand found that it was much more diffuclt to reach the intended paper. I will recommend the over technique to all the little handed people out there.

  5. I thought in the woods you were supposed to use leaves? Just avoid the shiny 3 cluster ones...
