Toilet Seat Up or Down? Does it matter?

[Paul P]

It's cool that your girlfriend didn't put up with people treating you in that manner Al. It doesn't matter what your personal preference is....when you have guests, it's common courtesy to not make a huge deal out of stuff like that!

As for me...I usually have the seat and lid down but I live by myself. If I have a guy staying the night with me, I always make sure to leave the seat up for him. Cuz I never wake up during the night lol and every guy I know has at least once.

Toilet seat always down!

The house's energy goes down the toilet if the lid is open...

... I love Feng Shui!

PS. IfYouSeekAmy... your signature is getting me horny!... so, if you find Amy, tell her to come see me!! lol

1) to the op: I agree, kudos to the gf for not putting up with that. The wife definitely has some psychosis
2) That thing about having to put the toilet seat down to prevent fecal matter from spraying is a crock, mythbusters did a segment on it and there was 0 difference with the lid up or down. (put it this way, with the seat down, they put a brand new toothbrush in a cup 5' away and found fecal matter on it.....
3) Splatter: you guys wouldn't have this problem if you go more n once a day lol.....

Personally I always put the seat down even in my place. But any woman who has an issue with the seat being up, ought to see a shrink because the toilet is designed for the seat to go up, and down, and if they can't deal with it, they should either glue the thing down, or get their own toilet.

This reminds me of an ex who got up in the middle of the night to have a whiz, plopped down and got a cold porcelain ass.....she flipped out on me (waking me up to do so) and i just smilled as she ranted and raved at me.....when she paused I asked "are you done"??? "yeah why"? ".....because, you were the last one to use the toilet"......fuck that made her madder......

You see, after peeing she had an odd habit of spitting into the toilet afterwards.....and she'd lift the toilet to do it......

That was the day err night i learned that if a woman thinks you deserve to get shit for something, doesn't matter whether you are at fault or not, you're gonna get shit......(which also reminds me of an ex who got pissed at me for something i did in her dream......)

 

[fishmoo]

You do have alot of ex's!

 

[TerribleTaylor]

That's why he's on an Escort Board... I guess! :

 

[John S]

I don't chance it...my toothbrush lives in a drawer.

I also agree the wife was, at best, a terrible hostess.

Toilet paper goes OVER!

I always lift the seat and aim for the middle drawing circles in the water below. Yesterday I had a surprise as I lifted the lid I found a spider cooling down drinking from the edge of the water sitting in the bowl. His little spider legs were not in the water but I could tell he was slurping up the cool refreshing toilet water. I looked around, slowly unzipped my pants, pushed my underwear to the left side and pulled out the meat pistol. I slowly "COCKED" it back, took aim and psssssss, direct hit!! Spidey is now in the middle of the bowl swimming for dear life. I kept dunking him in the water with a solid stream of yellow glory and he finally remained still and floating on the top of the rim. I then reached over, grabbed the shiny silver handle and pulled it down. Swooosh, the body along with the yellow water gone forever. I then lowered the lid, washed my hands thoroughly, looked around to make sure there were no witnesses and quickly left the scene. :go:

 

[Mommy to my Kailyn]

Nice review, Chunky.

Can you provide a few more details? Color of eyes? Approx weight? Did Spidey spit? Anything else on the menu?

Starting to think I should take Spidey off my TDL.

 

[Scream Your Secrets]

Be-careful Chunkster, the spiders pop looks upset too me.

 

[manutd_4_life]

Yeah, kind of hard to do though at 2:30 am, contact lens' in the cups, half asleep, and IT WAS MY PLACE lol......

As for the ex's, I'd rather have had many great relationships with many women than one lousy relationship with one lousy woman.......

For the smartass about why I'm here, I'm also on eharmony's message board and POF's too.....so blahhh lol....

 

[Hazel]

Tboy, does e harmony work for you bud?

 

[Pompal 09.]

I don't partake of their overpriced matching service, just hang out in their forums and cause shit lol...I've already had....three? four? warnings lol....

I got one for telling a guy I'm shipping him some midol after he freaked out over one of my posts lol...(he was on there asking about what his girlfriend meant when she said blah blah, I said "why not ask HER not US"??? lol).

You can't even use the word BOOB there, or F**k, or sh*t or anything thereof or of type.......

 

[Clever nickname]

1. When you are a guest in someone else\'s home, you put things back where you found them. Found down, put it back. 2. The host there freaked out, which was not at all hospitable, and you were right to leave for that, not for being right or wrong about the toilet seat deal lol.Esthetically, the look of a toilet with raised seat is particularly unattractive. It appears to be more inviting for upchucking into it, as opposed to other useful purposes. For what its worth, both men and women will (at some point) need the toilet seat down, but only men will need it up. So why not always put it down, you don\'t, after all, know exactly what you personally will need it for next time you are in there.

You're a guest in the house, this woman should be more polite. Politeness includes not saying things at all and letting things pass. This woman is an obvious sociopath, and it's likely your cousin can tell far worse stories about her if you met him in private.

I'd have said let it pass even if you sprayed all over the place.

Good for her, women are much less forgiving of trespasses. Your cousin's wife didn't have any trouble telling you off about your trespass. And your girlfriend knew that this is in turn is a trespass against you, that requires an immediate and dramatic response. It's some kind of unwritten woman's code, that they only understand. We guys tend to let things pass us by, let things go, women won't. In a case like this, I think the female response was the right one.

Regarding how things are at my own place. Before I was married, I was in the habit of always putting not only the seat down, but the whole cover down -- it's much cleaner. So after marriage, it was not a problem for her, as the seat will be down anyways. But I think this psychosis that some women have about putting the seat down is that they really don't want to touch the seat themselves, so they would rather that we touch the seat to lift it, and touch it again to put it down again for them. They want us to do all of the dirty work for them. I don't think this theory that women don't look before they sit, and therefore they may fall in is real, I just think they don't want to touch the toilet seat!

One time at a gf's I noticed it went under, so being bored I flipped it around...jesus she flipped on me lol.....(never did that again).

Funny how some people are so freakin anal about some things.....

 

[rayzir]

I expect a guy to always put the seat back down, if he doesn't then whatever, i just see it as a common courtesy, but it totally sucks when you run to pee & pull down your pants, and because your guy forgot to put the seat down - you fall in! LOL

 

[Tight End]

But the same could be said of when a guy has to pee really bad, runs in, un zips then has to stop and raise the seat.......

Seriously though, is there some mental deficiency with women where they can't simply LOOK to insure the seat is down before plopping their butt down? I can sort of understand when it is pitch black and you can't see a thing.....I mean, you have to walk UP to the toilet before turning around right? Or do women back into the bathroom and back up to the toilet whilst undoing the pants/skirt pulling down the panties????

 

[MelBo]

It is down, in my bathroom. But if I used someone else's bathroom and found it up, that's how I would leave it.
