Wanted: Opinion

[Jenny _S]

Ok... I'm back to the age old battle. Does the toilet seat belong up or down.

My position is if I get up in the middle of the night and plop down I could fall in.

His position is if I get up in the middle of the night and he's pissed on the seat in the dark we'll have a fight.

What do you say?

Oh, and while I'm at it... Toilet paper: over or under?

 

[Parklife]

toilet seat down... if i get up in the middle of the night and lift the seat so I don't 'miss' I'm already setting myself up for failure.

Besides, if i'm that groggy and can't shoot straight, I ought to be sitting down anyway. Hell, missing and pissing all over the under rim isn't much better than pissing on the seat is it?

Oh, and under... no dangling TP that way.

It's simple enough if it's up put it down, and vice versa. If you're too tired or drunk to notice you're not going to hit anything anyway.

And pissing on the lid isn't confined to blokes either. When the girlies are stamping their little feet after, it flies everwhere.

Toilet paper, over the front.

There are reasons that toilets seats have lids in the first place. I'm not sure what those reasons are generally, but I trust tradition and porcelain throune manufacturers on that. At my place, there's a sewage problem, making the water in the bowl kind of smelly (ain't you thrilled I shared that?), so there really isn't any issue there.

I think the paper question was asked a while ago. I'll repeat my statement: It depends on the design of the roll holder.

Toilet seat down, paper goes over.

 

[whispering_surrender]

Toilet seat, whatever. If it's up, I'm just happy they lifted it. Toilet paper, over the top.

Toilet seat down, lid down (thank you, Ice ). If you're conscious enough to open the door, you're conscious enough to lift the lid and conscious enough to decide the best course of action from there on.

Paper over the front.

I have never stamped my feet in the bathroom (when alone).

Edited to add: I grew up with 3 brothers, had 3 husbands, a number of over-night men (ha, I like that term), and two sons, so a toilet seat down is a blessing (of sorts). I hate using unisex toilets because then a raised or wet seat is a stranger's, yuk.

 

[Chicklet]

My boyfriend and I always keep the lid down...it's just a matter of lifting up the correct amount of wooden devices when it's...uh, time...

 

[oggbashan]

Down.

If not the cat drinks from it and leaves paw marks in the bowl.

Toilet seat down, toilet paper over. D-uh.

 

[Wills]

Seat and lid down, paper over the top. Is there any other way.

Mckenna, our cat ignores the toilet paper but spends hours in the bath trying to catch the of drips from the cold water tap. I fixed after he took a frog up there one day to help him.

My best friend's wife has him well trained.
Day or night, 24/7, it's seat down, lid up.

And Elliott pisses in the sink.

It doesn't matter.

If it's up and I need it down, I put it down. If it's down, and I need it up, I put it up and leave it up.


(But there's no fucking way in hell I'm going to put it down when I was using it up!)



Oh, and toilet paper ALWAYS goes over.

 

[Dirty Slut]

There's nothing I like better than a clean bathroom..

And nothing I hate worse than having to look down into a porcilin bowl that contains, and illiminates the foulest material on the planet from my home when I'm in the bathroom for other reasons. For that reason alone I insist that not only should the seat be down when not in use, but also the lid. And by God the last person to use it had better of flushed, or they'll be asked to take their business outside with the other animals. To make my position quite clear with my significant other/others, when they ask to use the facilities for the very first time I hand them a bucket, and then tell them the rules of bathroom etiquite according to DS. When they ask what the bucket is for my standard answer is: "You can either use it to clean with in the house, or use it to evacuate into out in the back yard. It's your choice. Either way, I want it clean, meaning steril, before you return it to me..."

As for the TP, since men never change the roll, I always put it the way I want it in my home.

The Fool is down and out...

I'll Bite

If its down when I walk in I'll put it up. If I put it up isn't it only fair that she puts it down? I do half the work she does half the work, that was the deal...(of course I could've sworn she said "I do" when we said our vows... it was only after hours of evaluation on the video tape that I discovered she said "I did.")If we're getting along well at the time I'll put it down out of courtesy, but will she ever put it up out of courtesy??? HELL No! so the bathroom wars continue... I put it up late at night and snicker when she goes in after me...

Down, I'm generally too lazy to piss standing up anyway.

Toilet paper over the front.

 

[Mhari]

*shrug* Down or up, makes no matter to me. I'll put it down if it needs to go down. Personally, though, I put the lid down, too, though I'm not quite sure why.

Toiler paper also gets a *shrug* from me, though my ex fussed if it wasn't over the top, so I tend to put it on that way.

 

[Boxlicker101]

When I had cats I got in the habit of putting the seat and lid down for their safety, and I still do. The TP goes over the top because it is easier to unroll that way.

 

[A7inchPhildo]

You can plainly see over the top!

Cover the bowl with saran wrap then place the seat down of course.
