Today my friend’s son made the snitty comment to me that he was just leaving the seat locked in an upright position.  I think he thought he was being smart ( Read more... )

Devil's Advocate...

1) He's 16. At last he has learned to raise the seat and not pee on it.

2) He has yet to have a serious female relationship in his life, or kids. This will change. :) Muahahahah!

3) If it's Caleb, he's in for a whole world of eye-openings, of which you are just the top layer. Have fun chewing him out and teaching him manners.

So, women just sit down without looking at the surface?

Do you sit on spiders, if one is on the seat?

What if the lid is closed, do you sit on it?

Our cats drink out of the toilet and get the seat wet. If you don't look, you are in for a wet surprise.

If you need a compromise, establish that the state you leave it in should be completely closed.

The spider was quite exciting. She didn't realize it until she was out of the bathroom and I noticed something on her leg. Upon helping to remove it, I showed her the remains of the spider. Much shuddering and squealing and hopping about ensued.

At the time it was traumatic. Now it's just damned funny!

And yet nothing was learned :p

Guys have to sit down too. The approach is the same; we have the same amount of clothing to deal with. I have never heard of a guy complain that he has sat down with the seat up.

Pay attention to your surroundings. :)

And we don't "drip" onto the rim or seat as they do. I don't like looking at it, yet alone having to touch it.

Do we not ALL look to be sure a chair is present before we lower ourselves onto it?

I don't think there's anyone sneaking into bathrooms around the world and yanking toilet seats up at the last second. SURPRISE! *plish!*

Wow, that is a great idea! Sneak into the women's restrooms and put the seat up. Apparently it is a 100% guaranteed practical joke.
