Default Toilet paper orientation

Is SRS BSNS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet_paper_orientation

How on earth does this pass Wikipedia's supposed notability standards? Personally I have other things to worry about. Thoughts?

Well it has References by the ton, that thing has citations all over it. It fits their Notability standards fine. If you can cite it then it's notable.

Plus if you really think it's not go tell them that, they love arguments about pages being notable or not.

It must be a sort of in-joke, the type that no one ever finds funny. Not even other nerds.

Well, some "nerds" do find it funny, as well as motivating. If he can write article like that about that, then I'm way behind my abilities in many aspects

I like this kind of stuff... besides, it could be cultural heritage to post-apocalyptic generations

I don't understand why anyone would ever put it in the 'under' configuration. It's kind of like stacking things on a slice of bread, only opposite. Only a lunatic would ever put the ham/sausage/whatever over the cheese.

I can't believe you guys fail to see the paramountcy of this matter, you're deranged.

Also this thread should be a poll.
