we like semantics here

 Is it correct to say that one shits on toilet paper? 

 

 i.e. if your shit gets on something, did you shit on it?

 

Or is shitting a more transitive verb than that? Are direct and indirect objects important in the English language? I'm not always sure.

Anyway, I like the idea that you could say to someone "I shat all over your toilet paper!".
