I get very confused which this. People say they wrap it in the direction the pipe will turn “clockwise”, although almost all of them are putting it on counter-clockwise. is it just because its a flipped image? If the threads face away from me and I wrap the tape in the direction i will turn the fitting righty tighty/clockwise, that seems to be incorrect. hopefully someone can give me something concrete to understand this with.

Picture the end tail of the tape, as your tighten the nut on it, or as you tighten the pipe into its fitting you want to be smoothing the tail end down. If it’s backward as you tighten the end may catch and start to unwrap.
