The Little Things Are Most Important


Taken from http://www.passiveaggressivenotes.com/2011/08/27/touche-douche/

This is my first blog entry and I hope that it has some value to certain individuals. In my opinion, the little things are most important and many of us do not seem to recognize this. My first example is the empty roll of toilet paper. When I see that there is a need for a new roll of toilet paper, I take it out of the cabinet and put it on the roller. I then insert it into the toilet paper holder. This might take me 10 seconds if I take my time. Now, all of us should be able to do this but I am starting to think that many people do not understand how to put on a new roll, or they just do not care about the next person to use the washroom. When I come into a washroom after someone, and there is an empty roll of toilet paper, I automatically assume that the person previous is a selfish and inconsiderate individual. Maybe it is just me. Maybe I look into even the smallest things in the way people act and judge them accordingly. But maybe the little things do matter. What do you think?

  1. I can understand the irritation, Sabrina also happens to have this particular pet peeve. Unfortunately, I tend to be the person who does *not* put the toilet paper back on the roll, I put it on the counter that is four inches above the roll. The amount fo times that I have been yelled at for this is staggering, yet I still won't learn. I suppose it's simply the way I am, but yes, it is the little things that matter.

    1. Well, at least you put a new roll within range of the toilet... Most don't even do that.

  2. I definitely understand the frustration, I have similar pet peeves with my roommates. Although I am also the one that leaves the new roll on the counter (points for effort?)

    1. Of course. As long as the counter isn't across from the toilet... lol
