Do you roll, fold or stuff your tent?

I fold and roll the tent itself, but the rain-fly I do an organized stuff. I grab it in the very center, then start scrunching and folding about 1' sections until it is rolled up. Then I stuff it in the bag.
 
Moving to the back area of the campsite, when it comes time for #2, there are two kinds of people, those who scrunch toilet paper and those who fold/reroll it nicely before using it. Does this correlate with tent/hammock/tarp behavior? Are there people who scrunch their TP but roll their tents, or people who fold their TP but stuff their tents? I really am curious. We're adults and we can talk about this sort of thing without snickering.
 
A little humor goes a long way! I am a long time stuffer, both the tent and sleeping bag. Much faster, especially on cold mornings when you just want to get on the water.
We could put this up for a vote or ask a psychiatrist if there is a hidden meaning to our methods.
 
Nearly always stuff it. I have had people play with their equipment for hours every morning trying to get ready. It drives me crazy. Put your stuff in the boat already and let's paddle. I had one guy that must have had OC/CD disorder. Several people are really slow folding, rolling and putting stoves and cooking pots in storage bags. Do they wax their cars every Sunday?
