I've always heard that the answer depends on whether your right or left handed. Which ever hand is the dominant should be side that the buckle is on. That's what I've heard. That's the rule I follow. I don't know if I'm right or wrong, but do what works for you.

I think this makes a lot of sense. I wear my watch on my right hand because I'm left handed, even though most people consider that wrong.

 
BoreedWSO actually offers a guide on belt looping, toilet roll usage and what socks to wear for a SA position.

hahaha i died laughing

swagonWhy not just use toilet paper as a belt? Get the sturdy brand so you can tie it to form a makeshift buckle.

Aren't you supposed to be banned?

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
 

If you look at the back of the belt any writing on the back to be upright will always be go to the left or counter clockwise. If you look at any buckle with a design, logo, words or numbers in order for them to be upright you always go to the left or counter clockwise.

 

I loop mine in counter clockwise -- frankly I'd never even considered doing it the other way. My mind is absolutely blown from this revelation.

This is as good as the time I heard you could sit on the toilet backwards -- well, almost as good.

"They are all former investment bankers that were laid off in the economic collapse that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have no marketable skills, but by God they work hard."
 

Whether you prefer the toilet paper to feed off the top or bottom, is almost completely dependent on whether you wipe your ass sitting or standing. Sitters = top. Standers = bottom.

If you can show me any buckle with a design, logo, words or numbers that are right side up when you go to the right or clockwise, then I will say belts are made to go either way. If you can show me any belt with writing on the back that would be right side up if you go to the right or clockwise then I will say belts are made to go either way. It can't be coincidence that every belt that has a buckle with a logo, words etc on it needs to go left or counter clockwise in order to be right side up. And it can't be coincidence that any belt that has words on the back needs to go to the left or counter clockwise to be right side up. I think these two facts alone says belts are made to go to the left or counter clockwise. Now I have to admit that I can only state these facts about men's belts, women's belts may be made to go the other way I don't know I've never wore a women's belt and I don't intent to any time in the future either.
