Some would disagree, but I just think it a lot easier to grab it coming over the top than to have to reach underneath and hunt for the free end.

It really is one of the great (albeit first-world) debates. Roommates move out over it. Married couples squabble because of it. And it's got a shockingly long Wikipedia entry (we're talking 130 footnotes, people).
But just what is the right way to hang a toilet paper roll? This infographic suggests that you use less paper when you drape the end over the top of the roll, simply because it's easier to see. You also don't have to reach as far to grab the paper, and if you buy toilet paper with a pattern printed on it, it appears on the over-the-top side. Plus, every fancy < target="_blank">toilet-paper-folding hotel in the country does it that way.
On the flip side, I hear from friends (and the vocal Internet community) that positioning your roll so it faces back (a.k.a. the "under" method) makes it harder for cats and toddlers to unravel the whole thing.
So what do our experts say?
"Definitely over," says Sarah Richardson, Good Housekeeping's home design director and host of HGTV's Sarah Sees Potential. "Hotels can't be wrong — they replace toilet paper more than anyone. Plus, if you place it under, you can't do the fancy fold at the end of the paper."

Always over. Under and the roll can unwind itself.
