Toilet paper Origami

My brothers and I used to have mung fights,,,, soaked toilet paper throwing activity....yeah weird.
I say toilet paper should be hung under.

And friends don't let friends meme

I say toilet paper should be hung under.

I am an over person. I actually have a friend who will go to someones bathroom and change the toilet paper roll if it isn't the way she likes it. Not me but we do notice it at the cottage when the different people up there change the rolls and yes we do change the rolls - we don't leave it for the next person to change. My sister is an under person because she had a cat and I am an over person.

Mon Sept 25
Lobster Day, One-Hit Wonder Day, Open the Magic (open a book & read), Cooking Day, Quesadilla Day, Daughters Day,

I thought I would share some of the One Hit Wonders that I found that I actually know. The lists vary depending on who created it but a One Hit Wonder is a band who has cracked the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 only once .
Another definition. A one-hit wonder is any entity that achieves mainstream popularity, often for only one piece of work, and becomes known among the general public solely for that momentary success. The term is most commonly used in regard to music performers with only one hit single that overshadows their other work.
Either way here are some of the ones that I know.
Macarena
Tainted Love
Come on Eileen
I'm Too Sexy
99 Luft Balloons
You Light up my Life
Play that Funky Music
It's Raining Men
In a Big County
Whip It
In the Year 2525
867-5309 (Jenny)
Hot Hot Hot
Kung Fu Fighting
Chick a Boom
Now you won't be able to unhear these songs.

Sat Sept 30
Chewing Gum Day, Hot Mulled Cider Day, Love People Day, Mud Pack Day, Last Sat days - Save Your Photos Day, Ghost Hunting Day

Does your chewing gum lose its flavour on the bed post overnight? You know the song.
Happy National Chewing Gum Day.
Is is also National Ghost Hunting Day. Funny story - a couple of years ago we went on a Ghost Tour in New York State and after we stopped at a Walmart we came out to the van and found some ghosts just hanging around waiting for us to return. We told them they had to stay there but they persisted and followed us home to Canada.

Yes I did have fun sneaking out to the van and hanging these ghosts for my fellow ghost hunters to find.
