For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
Now that I think of it, I’m pretty sure I did hear an American say altimeter once? I suppose if you were consistent in reversing all the rules, it could be chalked up to a dialect variation? I’ll let it go in that case. :)
