Didn't I hear somewhere that when you flush the toilet with the lid up the germs go flying all over the room. Probably an old wives' tale or internet hoax.

I wonder why urinals never caught on in homes.

Men should start complaining about women leaving the toilet seats down !


No women in this house, so that's not an issue.

I got one of those automatic down seats and it only takes a light touch to start it down. Guess I don't have any excuse any more...

I never understood the "toilet seat up" complaint. Instead, it's a sign that he took the time and effort to raise it before he "went."


Exactly! Would the women rather we splattered the seat for them?

Yes, I do too. A flick of a finger and down it gores. You don't have to bend down to avoid a loud slamming sound. saves the back.

I can't believe that no one has cited the obvious solution:

Don't put the seat up...

Ha! Ever since a bout of prostate cancer 23 years ago I've had to sit down to pee so the seat is always down. And sitting down sure beats being dead.

I've never been dead (yet) so have no basis of comparison, but logic dictates that you must be right.

My wife has put up an 'etiquette' sign above the cistern where men can see it. One of the rules says "If you put the seat up, then put it down when your finished"
and the last rule says "Guys, stand closer... it may shorter than you think"!


The best one I ever saw was, "Men stand close, the next guy may be bare footed."

viking22 Loc: Brooklyn NY to Wayne NJ to PBG FL
 
The toilet seat and lid are closed following each use.
Reason: Living in NJ, the town came and flushed the fire hydrant system.
Caused a blow back of air through the house drain from the street.
All the water that was in the toilet wound up on the walls and floor.
Lesson learned.
