I believe…. 🤔

[cheekygirl75]

What weird, strange, silly things do you believe? I believe the toilet paper goes over the roll. But I don’t believe there’s a right way to load the dishwasher.

...in woman, my oh my
I believe in lovin', my oh my.

Weird? Strange? Silly? Yes please.

 

[CuriousRick]

Bigfoot! I love the idea of a strange creature out there. Where it is an alien, from a different dimension, etc. the unexplained! I know there is a lot of people faking thing. But there it history of these creatures going back hundreds if years.

Under the roll makes more sense - engineer here

You’re going to need to give more evidence… over is much easier in my experience.

I believe that doing things in prime numbers.. ehmm.. makes me happy?

And, that the toilet paper goes over the roll - I do not want to touch the wall or scrape my knuckles.
Also, but of course there is a right way to load the dishwasher, as there is to stacking the clean dishes and drinking glasses.

..... I suddenly feel the need to refold my laundry..

So under takes the weight of the roll. Less strain on the holder and more control. And the roll will never ‘unwind’ if from under.

Failing that, just a licked finger (for number ones, obviously)

 

[CuriousRick]

The only good excuse I heard for backward the toilet paper backwards. Was to keep their cat from unrolling it.

I believe that newly clean plates should be stacked under old ones to ensure that all plates get cycled in use.

I believe that all non-electric cars should have manual transmissions.

I believe that @Foxed is wrong about TP orientation and is in cahoots with my wife on the issue.

Let’s not even talk about the barbarians that just set it on the back of the toilet!

What kind of toilet paper are you using?!? Less strain on the holder?!? Are you using Soviet-era lead TP?!?

Besides, whether the tail rolls off the front of the roll or the side next to wall should make no difference regarding the strain on the holder. Again, unless you are doing something radically different than the people I know.

Plus, the patent application for TP ahows the correct way, with the spool unrolling at the front.

(Helping keep the pet from unrolling it is a legit reason to do it "wrong" IMO, lol)

Fuck those assholes.

Yes! I agree with both those facts!

No, it doesn’t. I am also an engineer.

(And I am a smartass, so please do not take me seriously)

I believe in jinxes. Not the kind we did in school, where you call "jinx" if you say something at the same time as someone else.

What I mean is, your thoughts and actions can jinx the outcome.

Here's an example - if you think you did great on an interview and are *sure* you got the job, going out and buying a new outfit to wear to work, before you even find out if you were hired, can jinx you because you've assumed you got it. Your ego and arrogance will jinx you and the universe will punish you by giving the job to someone else.

I know it is silly and superstitious, and I'm usually quite rational. I just can't seem to help it, though - deep down, I fear the jinx!!

Yes… and I have considered that (I have 3 cats)… but they have never played with the toilet paper anyway.

Deep down I do too!

Yup! I believe in that too.. is it silly, absolutely!

But, nevertheless - I would knock on wood and say 7-9-13, if I said/did something that I felt would jinx my situation.

7-9-13? Never heard that before! Why is that supposed to work, I mean why those numbers?

Danish superstition numbers, kinda like magical thinking, they should ward off evil and bad luck.

Yes! Your prime numbers can help counteract jinxes!

 

[BrendaBear]

Okay, this is going to sound completely mental (and maybe I am). But years ago, I read that my spirit animal was a Raven. I don't know birds, I could not tell you the difference of a raven and a crow... so to me it is just big black birds. My dopey belief is, I very rarely ever see large black birds and when I do, I consider it a sign that something in my life is going to be changing... usually a big thing, and usually for the better. It is a good sign for me.

*** Hey, I can hear that snickering from here!! Okay, yeah... totally fair... ***

 

[cheekygirl75]

9 isn’t prime though

I believe that you should eat your steak however you want! Let people enjoy their food and don’t judge.

We do not say "knock on wood" - but we knock under the table.. and if we do not have a table, we would knock on some wood, while saying those numbers.
