DavidNDC Posted February 23, 2005 #29 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I leave on the Zuiderdam on May 14. If the toilet paper is not prepared exactly to my specifications, am I entitled to a $100 a day shipboard credit??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekerr19 Posted February 23, 2005 Author #30 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Well, I just got off the phone with DH and now he's afraid everyone knows about his TP fetish and will recognize him from our ekerr19 photo while we are on board... I didn't stop to think about that!!!! A Big Oops on my part! Oh, and the pointy end is out - for sure! He wants to go "au natural" as Sail has suggested... personally, I kind of like having the nice triangular point... :confused: Oh and just to alliviate has angst - if anyone happens to run into us - please, "mum's the word" on the TP!!! I'd appreciate it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted February 23, 2005 #31 Share Posted February 23, 2005 The Compensation Line forms at the gangway. Follow the 'flow of the traffic' down the gangway to the dock. All who request credits (money) will be left ashore! ;) And can wave as the ships sails away!!! (Unless, of course, you have brought your personal, family attorney with you on your cruise.....Just in case you needed him/her. :rolleyes: Kidding, folks, just kidding.....don't get all crazy!

cru1s1ng Posted February 23, 2005 #32 Share Posted February 23, 2005 ROFLAO!!! Thanks for the laugh. Shouldn't this be one of the questions they ask when booking? Just like which dinner seating, how you want the beds, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeatherInFlorida Posted February 23, 2005 #34 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Tell DH not to worry, EKerr, no one would ever in their wildest dreams recognize him from the photo here!!! I think people will exercise a little decorum and have the delicacy not to mention a private matter such as this even if they DID recognize him ... which they won't. But they might recognize you ... hmmmm...well, no one knows the kids so perhaps you could just move about the ship on your own and let DH run around with the kids. Sounds like a plan. But in the meantime, have we helped you out here? Do you have your next step planned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Gallup Posted February 23, 2005 #35 Share Posted February 23, 2005 If you do find that you are forced to reverse the roll yourself, please be careful. The technology involved can be very tricky. Then there is always carpal tunnel syndrome to think about. Of course, bending at the waist to sit down on those darn toilet seats can be quite risky too. Didn't I see a "Toilet Paper Rolls for Dummies" book at Barnes and Noble? My personal recommendation is to cancel the cruise and use the money to buy DH a colostomy. That would solve a multitude of problems................ Have a great cruise, and keep smiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted February 23, 2005 #36 Share Posted February 23, 2005 But what if he needs to use a public rest room? :confused: Wouldn't it be easier just to get a new husband? :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lipoppop Posted February 23, 2005 #37 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I heard that the cabin attendants had to take a special course in oragami in order to learn how to fold the paper into the point? I also heard that because the course is so difficult many of them failed. Therefore Hurdy Gurdy who has many skills sneaks around to the cabins when you are out and makes the points. If he is busy it is done by the ship's surgeon who has also been known to be very precise in the stiches he puts in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomc Posted February 23, 2005 #38 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I go on a single share, so I always let my roomie use the toilet first after the steward has been in there. That pointy end hurts! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robntawn Posted February 23, 2005 #41 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I hope to high heaven that this thread was meant to be a joke. I cannot believe that anyone would really care about how the toilet paper is placed. If, God forbid, the roll is not to your specifications, how hard is it to remedy the situation.

Duh! I meant he would prefer the TP in its' natural form... I might just have to hide out onboard the Volendam... we know a few of the crew & officers onboard (they went directly from the final Noordam voyage)... I can only hope they haven't seen this!

obriendan Posted February 23, 2005 #49 Share Posted February 23, 2005 The best solution to this earth-shaking problem is to request HAL to mount the TP roll vertically. Then it won't matter. (Of course, some may want it to unroll to the left while others to the right!!? O my, oh my!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakrewser Posted February 23, 2005 #50 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I heard that the cabin attendants had to take a special course in oragami in order to learn how to fold the paper into the point? No, that's on Carnival - but they do shape the end into a different flower every night..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
