Well that doesn’t apply to me.
This conversation has gone way south but anyone who’s not pulling back when they pee anyway 
Back to loo roll. .

To be fair I have no idea how old any of you are. Especially without face pictures!

Early 60s, so a lifetime of trying different ways of doing things and finding the best (for me)!

I’m beggining to think you are not a reliable review of sheet-based paper items, large or small.
I back the WGAC Premium - my bottom is very happy with it. It also gets delviered to my door in plastic free packaging, by carbon neutral couriers - so double win for me.
On a related loo roll note, Which did a study of Bamboo based brands and their claims - WGAC and Cheeky Panda were the only two that actually lived up to the claims:

Are you sure you’re not mixing your rolls? I could see this making sense if you’ve got your Regina in your bathroom!
I used to be an avid believer in Andrex Quilted, but I actually believe it is Too Soft™.
My ideal though would be a bidet attachment.

I boycotted the poll, and will not recognise its results, due to WGAC not being on there.

Whatever you do, NEVER flush a plane toilet whilst you’re still sitting on it! Heard a few years back some woman did that and they’d basically to dismantle it from underneath her when it landed due to the suction. Embarrassing wouldn’t even come close to describing that situation

This thread has become way more educational than its title would suggest.
On the topic, we’ve largely settled on the 24 packs of Duck. Well, the ones with the duck on them anyway.
They don’t have massive warning stickers all over them for no reason!
Also, isn’t it common sense to not flush a toilet while you’re sitting anyway? You’d essentially be spraying your bum with dirty water (aerosolised even if no splashback).
As far back as I can remember, I’ve always put the lid down before flushing the toilet.

Did you hear about the constipated mathematician?
He worked it out with a pencil.

Common sense? Have you met many real people?
Reminds me of that dummy who bought coffee in McDonald’s a few years back. Took the lid off, plonked the cup between her legs and was so amazed that it scalded her in places I’m sure she wished it hadn’t that she sued them for not warning her not to do that. She won.

I’ve never really close the lid but do lift the seat and put it back down if I pee.
What a topic this became.

If you actually read up on the case (and to be clear, I was told to read up on it myself after I once made a similar comment to yours), the woman wasn’t actually a dummy and the case wasn’t as stupid as it been made out to be.
The victim suffered third-degree burns and a resultant disability. The issue wasn’t that the coffee was hot, but that it was disproportionately hotter than coffee one would reasonably expect to buy from a takeaway establishment.
Most places served coffee at around 65 degrees, while McDonald’s served the coffee at over 80 degrees. The popular myth that “gee, dumb lady sued because hot coffee was hot” would appear to have been spread or encouraged by McDonald’s lawyers in an attempt to discredit the lawsuit.

Eek.
Spilt a few hot drinks in my time but never been like this.
The water from the workplace toilet taps is far hotter
As someone who did their legionella training (refresher) earlier this week, in can tell you that your workplace hot taps only need to be 60 degrees to be safe. And where I work all plumbed hot taps* have TMV (thermostatic mixing valves) on them to prevent the water being dispensed at scalding temperatures 
If your taps are indeed far hotter, might be worth having a chat with your friendly H&S rep 
*Zip boilers are regularly tested and manually adjusted.
