Toilet seat up or down ?

[cholla]

pitbull481: I've even taken a paper towel & soap & cleaned a seat in a public restroom.I'd rather get a little soap on my ass than the other.I assume you meant seat instead of lid since most public restroom toilets don't have lids.

The thing I hate the most is going to a public restroom (mall, gas station, etc.) wanting to take a BIG shit, getting to a toilet and theres pee, shit, all over the lid, that pisses me off damn dirty f*cks.

I've seen that too.  Wtf do people do in there, pee and s*it while dancing all around? 

[FallowEarth]

I piss in the sink..it's my way of helping conserve the worlds water

Good one, Lorne.  I tried the sink once, interesting experience.  Outside at the local tree generally worked for me living out of town, in the summer anyway...

My gf is currently preggers, and although i agree with the "both down" practice on principle, she insists on "seat down, lid up."  Why?  I don't know, but of course I know better than to argue that one, so it stands at our place.

Aggr3: I guess we could give the pregnant ones some slack.But that same one who couldn't deal with it when she was pregnant will be willing to use one of these about a year or a little more latter.

Cholla:  But what will she do if she gets pregnant again?

It was a joke (note the laughing face)  Didn't know it was such a sensitive subject.

[cholla]

cak46 : I caught that you were joking.I was just not sure how to awnser for Aggr3's GF.I thought you were talking about how would she use the safety lock if she was pregnant again.That's not a sensitive subject but a serious one.

[cak46]

Cholla:  Of course child safety is a serious thing.  It was a lighthearted question looking for a lighthearted answer. 

I do have another question for you.  I'm intrigued by this in your prior post:  "The reason women don't like the lid down is they don't like to look before the sit .when they plop down on the lid they piss on themselves just like they do the butt dunk when the seat is up.This does not happen to men because we look first."  Can you tell us why they (being women)  "don't  like to look"?  (I am assuming that this was a serious statement)

[cholla]

cak46:I really can't tell you why they don't look before they sit.What I know is from listening.You here about women taking a butt dunk when the seat has been left up.Obviously they didn't look.You here about them sitting on awet toilet seat not just seeing it wet & cleaning & dryiny it before sitting on it.So again obviously they didn't look before sitting.The lid down plop is the one you hear least about because they are embarrased to admit they did that & There is really no one to blame for it.

Boys are trained to look from the time they can stand & use the toilet,Because they a repetedly told not to get the seat wet.

And most of us are taught to put the seat down.By the time we are grown we automatically look.In a public restroom you better look or you might be sitting on a really nasty toilet at least in a men's restroom.I hear the women's restroom is not that bad.Like pitbull commented on in an earlier post.

Cholla:  By the sound of it, at least in a public bathroom, "we" didn't learn as much as we should have.........  Roto Rooter did a survey on this very subject (up or down).  http://www.rotorooter.com/fun/bathroom_3.php

I agree on the public restroom but we stiil look at it some just like to make a mess to hastle others.

The Roto Rooter survey was simular but only covered the seat position & not the lid position.It's hard to leave the seat up if you put the lid down.

Are you reaching for that gun, Cholla?

Are you reaching for that gun, Cholla?

Not yet cak46 I only reach for it if I intend to use it; but its in reach & loaded.

[cak46]

Seemed to me like you were a twitchin' a bit, pardner.  Not looking for no fight, just discussing the pleasantries of bathroom etiquette and having the lid up or down.  I do have an itchy trigger finger when confronted, but  I'm a bit too old for that sort of thing, unless it comes to it....    Here's a guy from your neck fo the woods.  Seems like he has a 'lid' on things.  http://www.roadsideamerica.com/attract/TXSANtoilet.html

cak46 : yall probably don't get a show called Texas Country Reporter in your neck of the woods.They had a section on one of their shows on this guy in your link.

in the beginning of this thread...wasn't there a poll?...where'd it go?

[Stank_Ho]

I leave it up on purpose. She never leaves it up for me, why should I put it down? When it's down so much there's a good chance it'll get hit.

Hmmm....  Hey, PHP, do you own one of those? (Your Sig.)  Nice weapon.

Heh... i wish... Springfield 1911 is a very nice gun

[cak46]

Here's a pick of my Ruger GP100.  Quite a nice .357.  Especially like the xtra barrel weight which keeps the recoil down for the next shot.

Heres a good picture of a 1911...

and to get back on topic...i have my own bathroom that no one else uses, i keep the seat and lid down because our cats like to use it as a step to get on the counter... and i think it looks better that way...
