5. You forgot an option -
"Take some personal @(*^#% responsiblity for yourself and LOOK BEFORE YOU PEE OR SIT DOWN, and if you fall into the toilet, or pee on the toilet cover, it's YOUR OWN DAMN FAULT, YOU clean it up."

7. We compromised
When we got married we agreed to always put the lid down. It's habit after all these years.

9. Kudos on such a sane decision...
I once had a girlfriend living with me who could not accept this common sense approach.

She was admamant that if I really cared about her, the throne would left in the best position for her comfort. She didn't like to fully-wakeup at night when she had to pee. So if the seat was up she'd hit cold porclean. If left down, she'd be so ready to let go that when standing up again she'd pee on her leg.

Needless to say we're no longer together....

8. Finished: Lid Down
My ex-girlfriend was a red-haired witch and made it clear in no uncertain terms the first time I left the lid up.

11. You actually know that a woman wanted
lid down everytime afer use? Is it a decoratnig thing?

I mean, my toilet seat has fish on the lid in trying to create a marine theme in the bathroom. You know, shells, fish, and nautical trinkets. Oh yeah, the soap used to be shaped be like fish...

16. She Woke Up During The Night
And had a habit of using the WC with the lights off.

I suspect she got her fanny wet one night.

20. You got one of those too?
Mine's sort of transparent, and if you look down there while the lid's closed, it looks like dolphins swimming.

Couldn't find one with sharks, snakes, or the Loch Ness monster.

No fish shaped soap, though. Glycerine soap and liquid soap, or whatever's on sale.

10. Lid down
Don't you know why there's a lid? It keeps the shit from spraying all over the feakin' bathroom! Always put it down before you flush. Always.

-A potential disaster?
-Not recommended even if you are trying to disguise the sound or smell?
-Not worth responding to?

on edit: clarification.

13. Huh?
just put the lid down before you flush it's not that difficult a concept. I said nothing about being seated.
