Okay, here's the final word on toilet seats!

When my cleaning lady finishes the bathrooms she leaves the seats and covers down . I have never given her instructions one way or another. She is obviously a professional in the toilet seat placement area so I say we defer to her.

Sound good?

People its a toilet seat..are we getting lazy or what!?



Wahoooo someone's a lil anal about the rooms in their house.

Rudey-- baddet's are used to cleanse the area, NOT to pee in!

And one time, my friend decided to leave the toilet seat up. I, thinking that I was putting the lid down (it was dark, and late) I put my pajama pants on the seat. Except, it wasn't the seat. IT WAS THE WATER!!!!!

There are a million reasons to keep toilet seats and lids down.

The main two:

Sanitary reasons.

Aestheic reasons.

*Keep up on your cat and its thirst and dont worry about small stuff like tolet seats and the way they look*
Nice snotty comment! No matter how much water you have out for cats, they're curious animals and get into things (like toilets) if you're not careful.

If it's so meaningless, how about giving up your bathroom and peeing in a ditch outside?

Cool

Rudey, You probably use a bidet!

The Crappers of Europe, Continental are Very Far different that what We as North Americans are used to!

If there are Partners in a household, then get 2 facilities! Simple? Eh!

After using the washroom...

Women - put the lid down!
Men - put the lid and the seat down!

It's the same action for both genders!

That said ... we're learning to always keep the lid down in my apartment because my kittycat has decided that toilet water is the tasty-est out there.... eewwwww....

'Ey! Oklahoma isn't THAT far removed from civilization - last time I checked they do have hot and cold running water and flush terlets!

Besides, Tom's in KC - can't vouch for that area!

I think she just meant that it isn't a die-hard issue that needs getting passionate about.

I have heard this as well, that microscopic pieces of fecal matter spray up in the air...eeeww.
I too, keep the lid down when not in use. (and I clean my bathroom once a week). It looks nicer that way.
