If you sit down and the lid is down you will most definitely know before you start peeing. I always look at the toilet seat except in the middle of the night. Usually in the middle of the night I feel to make sure the seat is down by feeling where the lid should be by the tank. I never put my hand down to see if the seat is down. Don't want to dip my hand in that.
My guy puts it down 99% of the time. So whenever he does forget it really freaks me out to sit and almost fall in the toilet. I don't get mad about it because it's usually in the morning, meaning he sleepily got up to pee and forgot to put it back down. I might mention it, and we'll have a laugh and move on.
I should mention that I don't yell at him or nag him about it. Sometimes I'll tease him about it but its nothing worth fighting over. I was just wondering how it worked in everyone else's house.
Anyone, male or female, who is too lazy to put the seat up or down should be shot and then castrated on the spot.
I am actually thinking of those emergency situations where you jump on the seat and release. Oh since we're on the subject...
I try not to wait long enough to make it an emergency like that. On a funny note, when I was really little I used to sleep walk. I would pee all kinds of weird places in my sleep We almost never put our toilet paper on the roll because, although our dog is old, lazy and generally well behaved, he really likes to TP our house if we do. He'll grab it and pull it all the way through the house then sit there and look at us like he's proud of what he's done. If we have company we'll put it on there and its always over.
I'm fond of men who sit on the toilet...because I have fallen into the toilet in the middle of the night and that is just sad.
I would rather the seat be put back down after it is used as I really do not like it being up. I have fallen in during a night time pee and it was not pleasant for anyone. Water in the bowl is really cold. My son sits, so did my ex. If not they can clean the mess as I am not going to. Every house should have one of these
I was wondering for a moment why my wife and I don't argue about the toilet seat, because I never give it a second thought. Then I realized its because we have a dog that will drink out of the toilet and then come up and put her nose all over you. It only took once or twice of that happening before we both realized that the toilet seat or lid shall NEVER be up unless it is being used. Perfect solution
That is my ultimate goal. I have to admit I'm not very good at putting the lid down either which is why I don't yell at him about the toilet seat. It's just something we both need to work on. Thank god our dog is too short to reach the toilet. He just lays in front of it and won't move to let you pee.
I was in a public restroom about a week ago and there was a big piece of shit in one of the urinals. Somebody took a shit in the urinal son!
I live alone so I really don't have to worry about this issue. I keep both seat and lid down because one of my former dogs thought it was a water dish and that totally grossed me out. About the over or under. I put the roll on a shelf behind the toilet because I have had cats over the last 40 years and they tend to think that toilet paper hanging on the wall is an invitation to have some fun.
