Whoever designed these things so that the paper bunches up and clogs from the inside, I hope every 14th fart is wet and stings. I hope you forever feel like there's a stone in your shoe!

Now, which sock am I going to sacrifice?

  1. I hate these toilet roll dispensers with a passion precisely because of this. There are better designs that are also arsehole proof (no pun intended). I don’t know why they can’t just use the “pull down” ones instead of the “pull out’ ones.

  2. As much as I hate to see public amenities vandalized. I feel when it comes to these things. You’re perfectly within your rights to tear the cover clean off to get the jacks roll.

  3. Someone on this very subreddit suggested jamming a key into the lock at the top. Apparently they’re not great locks and can be opened pretty easily, freeing the toliet paper.

  4. These things need a specific kind of toilet roll or they don’t work properly and get clogged up like this. So of course whoever runs the building usually cheaps out and just buys any old roll that looks like it will fit and pulls out the carboard tube inside and jams the paper in any old way.

    The design is grand, it’s the maintenance that’s shite.

  5. Best motivation I’ve ever had to consider lock picking lessons

  6. I’ve found if you reach under and pull the plastic case usually the whole thing opens up.
