A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

The+One+And+Only+Correct+Way+To+Hang+Your+Toilet+Paper-3048017586

I just had two different rolls of toilet paper sitting in my bathroom, and looking at them from the shower I got an epiphany.

Some rolls are soft on both sides, while some only on external one!

And if you have the latter and tend to rip two squares and fold (and it's easier to fold downside up), if you hang it over you'll end up with the rough side!

Those people just don't want to hurt their bums! All while the rest enjoys more easy access to toilet paper while hanging it over.

Endless debate...solved?

Same goes for toddlers. Also I find that I can easier hold the roll and rip off a piece with just one hand when it is under.

I trained my ~~cat~~ toddler not to touch it.

I took a metal measuring cup from the kitchen and set it atop the roll. As soon as he'd go to pull on the paper it would fall off and make a loud clang against the tile floor.

After just a few scares like that, he's not touched the roll in years.

You can't reprimand a ~~cat~~ toddler into not doing something, but a small change to make doing it unpleasant makes em stop pretty quick.
