Here Today... Gone To Hell!

just wondering, how many guys here do actualy close the seat after peeing?

and how many girls get annoyed by it beeing open?


and to tell you the truth, i find it annoying that the seat is closed when i pee. we men pee's ofter then girls, so YOU gal's should be opening the damn thing!

I always thought it would be nice if the girls could leave the seat up for us.......

It is not an issue with my wife and I, probably why I kept her around..........

Get one of those furry things to go round the seat, then you can pee where you like and it gets soaked up. Either that or force your wife/lady friend to shit/pee outside : ok:

....Yeah, i thought that would be good, but i've had one to many bad (stoner/drunk) experiences where i've thought the seat was down and gone to sit down and well...

pretty pointless thread. (sorry  :-\ )
I hope my telling you that most girls find the open seat annoying could make it a little less pointless.  :peace:

i never put it down...but i have to put it up all the time...then they want us to put it back down...sheesh...if ya dont like it the way it is, change it yourself  :hihi:

I always leave the seat down after i've had a poo, cause once a friend told me that if you don't the germs will fly out of the toilet and onto your toothbrush when you flush. :yes:

Do you think there are no germs in pee?

I don't have to worry about this because my husband was raised by all women, so he's well trained to put the seat down.  But forget which way you like to use it - it just looks better to keep the seat down.  I'd be embarrassed if company came over and the seat was up.  Yuck.   In fact I usually try to keep the lid down, since it looks better and keeps the dogs from having a taste.

I was just about to start my script for "Toilet seat - The musical".......

Guess the interest just isn't there yet........

I don't use the toilet-too much trouble. When I have to poop, I just stick my arse out the window, push the feces out, and and it lands outside. Then the rodents come and eat it--very clean, no mess.

If I have to pee, it's down the sink or in the tub.

i always pee outside.. i piss on my outdoor weed pots.. its just feels good when nature does its thing..

Shit & piss, shit & piss, shit & piss.

Poop and pee...

Seat AND LID down. Yes, I know I'm contradicting guy code here, but hell the lid is there for a reason. A toilet looks better with the lid DOWN. Why do people have such a big problem with this? Are we really that lazy that we can't spend 2 seconds (does it even take that long?) to put the seat and lid back down?

I just flip the lid and seat down. Well most of the time.

Now if my gf would go bitching for me leaving the toilet seat or lid or whatever up, she obviously would have too much time on her hands.

I don't complain about the seat being down, and was it up or down it doesnt bother me.

If she would complain about it however, I would put it down
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

and she would wash the floors and do the dishes and I'm sure she won't complain about it again.

And I don't complain about her leaving her make up around the house either.

if the lady leaves the seat down piss on it she will soon leave it up

where i used to live we broke the seat off so people cant complain that its not down because it doesnt exist.
NO SEAT = NO PROBLEM   : ok:

unless you have to take a dump.

I have so many other things to complain about..... No, I'm just kidding. I really couldn't give a fiddler's fart on whether or not the seat is down. My life really isn't that complicated.  :hihi:

It's disgusting to put it down!

Annoys the hell out of me  ::)

I meant the lid, not the whole seat

 :rofl:

and then you forget and have to shit and sit on your own pee... not good....

i didnt  think this thread would be so popular, hey SLC, if you want to i can compose some fancy drum beats and samples out of our toilets to your musical if you ever do it , i got 3 different to make sweet ass music outta!  : ok:

People can get really nutty over stuff like this.  I once was at a management training thing where the instructor had several different people come up and demonstrate how to fold a towel.  People were getting all angry about which was the right way.  I don't know, I can't get that worked up over stuff like that.  Its like when you put the fresh roll of toilet paper on with the end out front or in the back.  Everyone seems to have a preference and I just don't understand it.  Its just toilet paper.

yeah, its like when i put a pizza in the oven, i like it front out. but if someone does it for me and gets it the wrong way!!! god damn! they are sooooo screwed!  :hihi:


but i know what you mean. sometimes i think i give too much of a fuck...

Well if I'm being honest, I have those things I get nutty about too.  Like if I'm at work and I reach for something, like a stapler, scissors, pens, etc. and they aren't exactly where I left them...someone is going to pay. 

But I don't think I will ever freak out about the toilet seat or toilet paper.  Well maybe if there was no toilet paper -  I might get a little riled up over that. 

i hope its just because i am really tired but how do you put a Pizza in the oven the wrong way round  :confused:

i hardly get angry for anything at all, if you get me angry you have done something stupid...
but back to the point, i get really onnoyed if i take a dump and THEN find out there are not TP left.... i need TP for my bunghole!



hehe... my point exatcly! just joking. *place ironic haha here*

thank god for that i thought id turned really stupid then

What's the big deal?  I don't get it, you need it up, we need it down. If it ain't how you need it when you go for a piss change it, ain't that fuckin hard is it

honesty it annoys me to touch the seat, i perfer not touching it at all who knows who has nbeen sittin on it with their ass,
 :no:

Oct. 14, 2005 ? Few inanimate objects arouse as much universal germ fear ? especially among women ? as the dreaded public toilet seat.

"That's like the first rule ? don't sit on the toilet seat," one woman told "20/20."

Another woman described public toilets as being both nasty and filthy. And a man told us he would "rather go almost anywhere else than a public bathroom."

"Fifty percent of American women won't sit on a seat without some type of guard or without hovering," said Allison Janse, author of "The Germ Freak's Guide to Outwitting Colds and Flu."

She admits she has spent years herself dangling over toilet seats, but now this self-professed germ freak is changing her attitude. She says paper toilet shields help your head more than your bottom, and those who hover often just leave a mess for the next person.

How Many Germs Sit on the Seat?

Mothers teach their daughters not to sit on a public toilet seat, but is this really a big source of germs?

"No," said Janse. "You're not going to get germs from your backside. You're going to get them from your hands."

To see if that's true, "20/20" asked Janse's co-author Dr. Charles Gerba to check our bathroom with his germ meter.

"Usually, actually the floor is the dirtiest, as you might guess," said Gerba.

The floor test revealed about 2 million bacteria per square inch. Gerba says that's about 200 times higher than a sanitary surface.

"This is pretty bad," said Gerba. "We consider that a fail. So you don't want to walk around barefoot in ABC News toilets."

Not surprisingly, the sanitary napkin disposal unit also failed the test and rated as the spot with the most germs in our ladies' room.

But our sink, an area that is usually a haven for germs, was found to be unexpectedly clean. The biggest surprise was found on the toilet seat.

"This is the cleanest spot so far," said Gerba.

Gerba defines a sanitary surface as something clean enough to eat off of, with no more than 1,000 bacteria per square inch. The toilet seat passed that test, but "20/20" reporter Don Dahler's desk failed.

yeah, i heard some "mythbursters" kinda show on the radio where they called "people in the know" and asked things, and that was one of them.

they also said that it was bigger chanse of getting sick or smitten by something by touching the door handle than sitting on a toiletseat.


i mean, its not like we actually shit on it.

but i get the fear, one does not know where the ass that have been on the seat before me has been.

Although it is probably true, I don't like touching toilet seats or handles.

But I have a germ phobia.......

That, or I really like to wash my hands.........

yeah right, i know you love to caress that toilet seat!

and isnt you real nick: TSLC? Toilet Seat Licking & Carresing Punk?  :hihi:

i am really amused right here... hehe

Here is a picture my wife took of me yesterday.........

(http://img431.imageshack.us/img431/6399/slcpunkgas8iz.jpg) (http://imageshack.us)

looking at that pic, i got a gnarly idea... moving my PC to my toilet.... that way i would spare hell of a lot time!  :hihi:

Their toilet seat was clean enough to eat off of? Yeah, don't think I'd ever try that. I'm sure most toilet seats would fail that test. When the seat isn't dry (I'll leave it at that) in most places I don't think I'd try sitting on it let alone eating off of it. And the flush lever? That's what the bottom of the shoe was created for.

I have a good habit of closing the toilet seat but even if I forget it coincides with my bad habit of leaving the light on, so if i do leave it up, I usually leave the light on so they can see anyway.

Besides who fuckin pisses in the dark anyway?

Cant a woman turn a light on to piss and see the seat up?

When I live with a female I always put it down. When I live by myself or with other dudes I just leave it up... unless a female comes over. I have a really girlie bladder, so it doesn't make much sense to keep the seat down when i'm home alone because I have to pee every fucking 20 minutes it seems.

I probably sound like a real psycho when I take my daughter into a public bathroom.  I'm constantly yelling "Don't touch anything!"  and "Did you touch that? Gross, don't touch anything else till we wash your hands!"   And trying to hold her over the toilet so she doesn't have to hold on.  And I always always flush with my foot.  I'm not touching that thing. 

Then the handwashing...l scope out the paper towel dispenser first, if its the kind you have to touch to work, then I dispense a bunch and leave it hanging.  Then I wash my hands, (and my daughters) get the paper towel to dry my hands and then use it to turn off the water.  I also use the paper towel to open the bathroom door.  Hopefully there is a garbage can nearby to drop the paper in.  Otherwise when you see crumpled paper towels just inside the bathroom door..its because of people like me. 

then what do you do if there is a blowdryer there? no tissue? use toilet paper?

Hit the button on the dryer with my elbow.  To open the bathroom door, if I'm lucky I get out while someone else has the door open.  If not, I use the paper seat covers as paper towels.  If I'm forced to touch the door handle, I have hand sanitizer in my purse that I use.  But I wash my hands again at the earliest opportunity.

Oh my God!  :o

Don't you think you overreact a bit?  :hihi:
I mean, why do all that?
I'm pretty careful when I'm in public toilets, but geez, I'm nowhere near that!

I've worked in a few healthcare facilities, so I'm well trained in infection control.  I also have worked with the public a great deal, and guess what?  The public is gross and unclean.  Seriously.  People pick their nose and pull their underwear out of their ass before they grab a door handle.  Ever just sit back and people watch?  You'll see them doing all kinds of nasty things when they think no one is looking. 

I also won't eat at a place if I can see people using unsafe food handling techniques.  I try not to think about what goes on at the places I can't see.  If I think about it too much, I won't be able to leave my house. 

Also, I have a kid.  And I'm far more concerned about her getting sick from some weird germs than myself, but since she will catch anything I catch, I have to be careful.

I had never ever thought about that!

Sterling is 100% right. Using elbows, feet and paper towels. I'm all about the hand sanitizers.

I have OCD so I understand completely. The worst thing is that even if you wash your hands, flush using your foot (which is impossible at a urinal without looking like a complete tool, I might add? :rant:) you still have to touch the door handle where who knows how many people have touched it without washing their hands. I heard that is the filthiest item in a public bathroom.

The best bathrooms are the ones with no front doors, just the little maze, and the sensor cammodes, urinals, sinks, and hand dryers. Those are an obsessive compulsives dream.

Wow, isn't this going too far? At school we had this teacher who couldn't touch anything he knew someone else had touched, I feel sorry for him.

The only thing that makes me feel disgusted is when someone has forgot to flush after poo, but other than that I really don't have a problem. If I catch something, then I do, it's nothing to have stress over.

That "something" might be something you don't want to catch.

Yeah, but there's bigger things to worry about if your into worrying

Speaking of toilets here is a little etiquette everyone should practice.

When u go to pubic restrooms "DO NOT PISS ALL OVER THE SEAT!"


U ever had to use the bathroom horribly bad but the only stall has a toilet lid filled with piss?


Be courteous to those who may have an emergency and use the urinals.

Only guys who are peter shy or have small dicks use stalls instead of urinals! : ok: :hihi:

Not necessarily.? I'll sometimes use the cubicle if it's got paper there, cause I find dabbing to be more effective than shaking (sorry :-[).? I guess it just depends if i'm in a hurry or not.

im guessing the toilet scene in trainspotting must really gross you out... ;D

I haven't seen it.

I'm not talking about worrying, I'm talking about catching something, or coming down with something. If you've seen what scientist have found in bathrooms, especially on the door handle, you'd understand. To me its like saying: "I'm going to have sex without a condom... if I catch something I'll catch something"

For me I like taking the whole "I might catch something" out of the scenerio.

now really, what's the possibility of catching something bad from a public toilet?

And I never got anything that antibiotyics couldnt fix when having sex without a condom.

That sounds like worrying to me.? I know you have scientific basis for it, but i'd say there's still a healthy degree of paranoia worked in there as well.? I touch door handles all the time and I feel fine! :drool:

Honestly, you might as well skip washing your hands if you are going to touch the water faucet handle with your clean hands to turn off the water.  The germs that were on your hands when you turned the water on, will be there when you turn it off and get right back on your hands.  The same goes for the door handle. 

And maybe you won't catch anything deadly, just a cold or two.  But would you lick a total stranger on their hands, or anywhere else?  Because when you touch a public door handle (or escalator, or shopping cart, or elevator buttons) then touch your face, you are getting all those strangers' germs right into your body.  So go around and lick hands, its the same thing.

I might sound paranoid, but my handwashing procedures (using paper towels to turn the water off, open the door, etc) are what medical professionals use and its required by law where I work.  And if you saw what some of the people do where I work, you'd be paranoid too.  And we do take them out in public, so they are also touching all those public door handles.  And you don't want to know what their hands have been in...

always close, i live with  two girls!!!

Isn't it just!, going out in public can be a nightmare these days, and I swear that the average price of your standard hazmat suit has sky rocketed these past few years.

(Though, I was brought up to kiss the faucet thankyou after washing my hands in the pub toilets. It puts hair on your... Lips (Stoned?))

I never wash my hands!

Just kidding  :hihi:

am I?

Toilet seats must stay down!  It even LOOKS better that way! :yes:

Wow, Sterling, you are like my best friend.  You would never had made it at Woodstock when we went!  :no: :hihi:

My friend and I have had this discussion many times:  Her daughters are ALWAYS sick (she doesn't think so, but they miss a lot of school).  My sons would have perfect attendance at school if they didn't miss a few Fridays for hockey tournaments.  My friend disinfects EVERYTHING and my boys will eat something that they dropped on the ground.  I serious think that my friend's daughters have a low tolerance for any type of germ because they live in a bubble practically.  Your body needs to be exposed to things in order to know how to fight it off.

I agree with you, actually.  My daughter went to daycare and preschool at a center and did catch a lot of common illnesses. Now she's in school with perfect attendance and almost never even has a cold.

But I'm pretty sure she gets exposed to plenty of stuff from the germy little kids she goes to school with.  So do I, for that matter.  But I'm still not going to willing pick up the public's germs when a little careful handwashing will help avoid it. 

I'm used to people making fun of me for it.  But when they have the flu and I don't, I laugh at them. 

wow...

coolto see that this tread evolved to this...

hehe...

am i one of the few people that DONT care if i touch shit? as long as i dont have open soars and shit i touch all i want.
yeah, im the original i-dont-give-a-fuck-guy! i tuch bathroom stash without thinking about it!  :yes:
