My wife say's I'm wrong in everything I do. So if I voted wrong it would be right, and that can't be right because that would be wrong..........Wouldn't it ?

We weren't voting right or wrong, we were voting over or under. If we were voting left or right, is another matter......if you voted left, then indeed you were not right.

But then again, the poll had more than an either/or choice......so if you had eliminated all the wong choices, the choice that was left, would be right, which is contradictory to the left/right axiom above, which stated that left was not right........therefore, we have to conclude that your wife is correct in what she says and that whatever you voted would be wrong.

Since the statistics show that 70% insist on "over", I suggest putting an end to the argument and confusion and time-wasting by installing the Harcourt Patented Ratcheted Toilet Roll Dispenser, which has a one-way rotating roll spindle that will only allow dispensing the paper over the top.

In most Thailand Cheap Charlie hotels (where I stay) they don't have proper bathrooms where the shower area is separate from the toilet. You can't leave a toilet roll in the bathroom or it will get soaked. So, it just gets carried in an out of that room and never goes on a dispenser. And, with my hairy behind those bum hoses only work to finish the job.

Even at home I have to be careful. In my doddering old age I have to be careful what I use to wipe my butt. I'm forgetful and just might use some feathers.

But to quote Rabelais (Gargantua & Pantagruel)

Who his foul tail with paper wipes,

Shall at his ballocks leave some chips

The whole list of things Gargantua tried is in this extract:

http://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/r/rabelais/francois/r11g/book1.13.html

Of which this is a snippet

Afterwards I wiped my tail with a hen, with a cock, with a pullet, with a calf’s skin, with a hare, with a pigeon, with a cormorant, with an attorney’s bag, with a montero, with a coif, with a falconer’s lure. But, to conclude, I say and maintain, that of all torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose, that is well downed, if you hold her head betwixt your legs. And believe me therein upon mine honour, for you will thereby feel in your nockhole a most wonderful pleasure, both in regard of the softness of the said down and of the temporate heat of the goose, which is easily communicated to the bum-gut and the rest the inwards, in so far as to come even to the regions of the heart and brains.

And that's why he got thrown out of the pet shop.

But you see the benefits of a classical education.

I had to drag that out of a >60 year memory slot.

Fighting off Alzheimers by studying the French classicists. Is it really worth it?

My education was quite good also, but I knew about it from this..........

Sitting upright to relieve oneself ain't the healthiest.

BTW, don't use.

Waiting for Ian.

My Canadian role model. :ph34r: .

I rather equate Ian to Godot

Sitting upright to relieve oneself ain't the healthiest.

More hygienic than standing tho'

Done that twice - both times in very embarrassing circumstances.

Both times well pissed.

Once in Saudi (Al Khobar), once in Libya (Benghazi).

Both times walking home about midnight.

Both times stopped by the police.

Both times allowed to go on my way after quick questioning.

(Maybe the smell?)

Since under = wrong and over = right we can deduct that we are indeed voting for right and wrong.

Third try at posting - first two lost in the ether. B*gger it - can't be bothered.

I'm surprised you didn't get the Arab equivalent of a " Blue Peter" badge for your efforts at mimicking local culture.....

The Arab equivalent would be a "Brown Peter Badge" wouldn't it.

More of a 'Brown Sameer', I would suggest.
