Clearly, it's B. Anyone who does A needs a stern talking to and handled like they did dude in Clockwork Orange.

Serious researches demonstrate that the B configuration is more economical and environment friendly. So if everybody use B configuration, we'll save the planet (and some cash) !

B. No debate about it. B is the only way. Same for paper towels.

i will say our casts prefer B, too. they *hate* A since it inhibits their ability to dump the roll out onto the floor during the afternoon while no-one is around.

"[We, the B's, are] in the majority because B is the only correct answer." Wow, isn't that some great reasoning. :P

+1 Joelle. I've noticed that the roll eventually just ends up on the windowsill or the loo room floor, after a few days, which renders it moot.

as i suspected, ff is anal, maybe try this on twitter and fb?

Trent same here, but my cats get to it on the sill, so it's under the sink in the cabinet. They still get to it, but not ad often. And they like to toss it down the stairs

B each and every time. When my wife does it the other way, I always change it.
- Tsega Dinka
Makes no difference to me. It ends up whichever direction the roll is at the time it needs changing. I did notice once I had a roommate who would switch it if I didn't put it on her preferred setting.

Doesn't matter to me. Either way works.
- Rodfather
A is unacceptable at any time. Unless you have toddlers or pets, maybe, in which case B might lead to more mess.
- Andrew C
B is my preferred way, but since I have 2 cats, it would result in the entire roll ending up all over the floor. So I have to go with A.
- April Russo (app103)
I stick to B to the point of changing rolls around wherever I go. I'm a crusader.

@Mitch, thank you for validating my own craziness. And for upholding the honor of the overhand nation.

There was a semi scientific study done once that demonstrated why B was more aesthetically pleasing to the eyes thusly making it superior and lasted longer before needing a new roll, in addition to making it supposedly easier to tear off the sheets.

I personally enforce model B, for purely hygienic reasons... the thing is, if the end of the paper is close to the wall, as it is in model A, a person (presumably) reaching for paper - perhaps in a hurry - will eventually contact that wall with their fingers... repeated contacts, by several different peoples' fingers, will eventually transmit all SORTS of germs, from fingers, to walls, and to people, and to their families and friends - of course, if you are the only person using that paper source, then by all means use an esthetic criteria to choose - if you choose model A, though, wash your hands better and more often, and disinfect that wall from time to time... if you're sharing, use the hygienic model (B) where the paper roll is all you touch - it's safer - more considerate - more convivial... more ergonomical too. makes it not-so-far to reach! wash your hands with either model, please yer pal fast freddy

To B or not to B, there's no question about it. B.
