I love the caption on the second image: "The improper under orientation".<p>I remember a crazy discussion a few years ago on the Something Awful Forums about wiping direction preference, which turned into a flamewar on the merits of wiping sitting up vs. wiping standing up or half-standing.<p>I had no idea people wiped standing up.

Personally I'm an 'over' for functional and aesthetic reasons. I could never understand why some would be 'under's - but then again, I don't have pets/children, nor a mobile home.

This article is probably a good example for when '[Citation needed]' is taken a bit too seriously. 119 references!

Hum, I thought I was the only one that have this problem with orientation.

I'm glad this vital issue has finally been raised in this community. I've been writing a checklist of issues to double-check before I launch my startup and almost overlooked this.
