The Thunder Bucket

Ok, so I'm on the pot, doing my business. I reach for the toilet paper and I have to lean to the left and down to reach it. What's this? The toilet paper is lower than the toilet. How can this be? If you were hoping for an answer to this question, you will not find it here. I just don't understand how and why this would happen. It is visually obvious that the paper is lower than the pot so why not fix the problem. The last thing I need to be doing while un-wiped is leaning away from the toilet. This could be why toilets are soooo unsanitary. This post may make some people uncomfortable, but you'll be happy next time you take a trip to the john and conscientiously choose the toilet with even paper.
