I close the toilet bowl when I flush because otherwise the action of flushing is spraying a fine mist of poop-water all over your bathroom, including your toothbrush. :shrug: So I've never had a problem re: toilet seat status when living with women.

e: I just went and looked this up in case it was hearsay bullshit, and it looks like the smug part of the internet is convinced that toilet aerosolization isn't a thing because of a 2004 mythbusters episode, but actual medical/immunology journal studies say that it's a significant factor. Huh.

I do to my boyfriend but not because he leaves piss on the seat but because he chooses to leave his toothbrush on a shelf above the toilet and those poo poo and piss germs are going to get all over it if he doesn't close that loving lid. It's just good hygiene.

As a woman I have only ever seen it on sitcoms but I'm Swedish so I just assumed there was something to the design of American toilets that put extra responsibility on the previous user.

I just fold the seat down if it's up and my ex would fold it up if it was down and no one gave it a second thought. Mostly the lid was closed.

I generally keep the seat down cause pee doesn't really sneak up on you and so I can take time to put the seat up, but after a long night of drinking sometimes an oncoming poop can surprise you. So I don't wanna slam my butt into porcelain in my haste to beat an ambush poop.

There I've said more than anyone should on the topic of pooping in a thread not dedicated to pooping.

And the motor loads up a tension spring and unless the seat registers a human sitting on it. The lid will slam shut with enough force to sheer off a broom handle. This will help keep the rats from getting out :black101:

I did once, but the extenuating circumstances were that I was 7 or 8 months pregnant, and it was during one of my 20 nighttime bathroom trips. Dragging my fat rear end out of the toilet at 1 AM in the dark is not high on my list of favoured activities.

There's an international grocery store near us that has a whole section for Korean appliances, which apparently means that all the appliances talk to you in chirpy voices? Anyway, from what I can tell, all the toilets cheerily advise you to lower the seat when you're done. There, problem solved.

Observe that no enemies to the left works great for the left. Obama was an office boy to Bill Ayers, communist and terrorist, and no one ever asks him to disown communists and terrorists.

Similarly observe that no enemies holier than oneself works great for Islamists:

RFC2324 posted:

“Hello, I am a moderate Muslim, a very moderate Muslim, with extensive connections to immoderate Muslims and considerable influence over them, so give me a basket full of degrees from high status universities and a big cadillac with girls in the front and sacks of money in the back, or else my immoderate friends might be displeased with you.”

If we disown Nazis then we have to have to disown those one step removed from Nazis, and then we have to have to disown those two steps removed from Nazis, and then we have to have to disown anyone whom the left points the finger at and screams “racist” at, and then we are cuckservatives.

If the lips are gone the mouth will feel cold. Having actual unironic Nazis in the alt-right makes it safe for me to be in the alt-right, since leftists will be too busy having mental breakdowns at the actual unironic Nazis to have mental breakdowns at me.

The left has a thousand points of evil and madness, while anyone who disagrees on a single one of those points is “literally worse than Hitler”. The alt-right is everyone who is “literally worse than Hitler”.

Typically one alt-rightist is “literally worse than Hitler” because he disagrees on one point, while another alt-rightist disagrees on a different point, so typically two alt rightists have nothing in common except the nine hundred and ninety eight points where they agree with the left.

How then should we deal with disagreements within the alt-right?

One cannot debate everyone, but you should never criticize a fellow alt-rightist you are unwilling to debate. And if you do criticize them, and do not wish to debate them, retract, apologize, and affirm alliance against the common enemy.

Remember you grew up immersed in leftism, that your media shows a radically false picture of life. In the media fathers and husbands are always wicked and/or incompetent, and generally bad for women and children, female sexuality is always chaste and pure, blacks are always magical, women never divorce men for foolish and wicked reasons, all criminals are affluent white males. So if you disagree with your fellow alt-rightist there is a very high chance that you do so in ignorance, foolishness, or even wickedness, since you were raised on media that presents evil as clever, nice, and high status, and good as stupid, nasty, and low status.

Always criticize a fellow alt-rightist as a brother, not an enemy. If you criticize your brother, it is because you want to speak to him, and him to speak to you. If you criticize your brother, you must first be willing to learn where he is coming from, you must first want to learn where he is coming from.

:byodame: ":words: my son has autism!"

Just like 8 year olds questioning the election, just remember everything on the internet isn't true and many of those probably have never been professionally diagnosed.

At Back to School Night a couple years ago, I was talking to a small group of parents and students when a mother and her son walk in and interrupts the conversation with "THIS IS MY SON. HE'S GOT THE AUTISM!!1". Of course, it just went dead silent and everyone high-tailed it out of my room and I was left with just her and her son.

I had just changed buildings a couple years before that and had had the kid in 6th grade and didn't remember him being autistic. So I asked his teacher of record about his IEP and not remembering him being autistic and she replied, "Uh...that's because he's not autistic. He's been tested and has a mild reading disability and some major anger issues.... that's all."

In my 16 years of teaching, you'd be surprised what labels parents put on their kids with no medical diagnosis to get the kids into special programs or out of trouble. Ten years ago, the hot ticket was Aspergers and 99% of the time it was made up and the school, special ed department, nor the kids IEP had any record of it and was just a crazy parent talking out their rear end.

My favorite, however, was a kid that got suspended for cussing out the principal and when he returned he was put into special ed for "tourettes". I knew his dad a little from working with him 10 years prior while I was in college and he straight up told me there was no actual diagnosis and just wanted to keep him in school.
