In over 25 years of have always more than one dog, not a single one has ever suffered any ill effect from toilet bowl drinking.

Even if you have double sinks, a women's bathroom items grow & expand to cover every exposed area. Leaving no room for even your toothbrush. Just use the bedroom hall bath.

Always and forever.

It might be a "Florida" thing, but the with the cover down, the humidity will destroy a seat and metal fittings in within months.

I do think the cover down, is more "eye friendly", but c'mon, it's a crapper.

If your spending leisurely amounts of time gazing on yonder bowl, such habit is seen as quite vulgar and course among the more refined and questions the machinations of one's mind.


Interesting, don't most Florida homes have air conditioning? Been there a few times but never for more than several weeks.

I sit down to pee at home. No worries about marksmanship and floor is much cleaner as a result.
Seat down and cover up.

Keep the seat down...it gives those big assed black south Georgia/Florida spiders (you know the ones that sometimes hang out in the corners of the bathroom and can run like the wind) a place to hide in ambush (awaiting your little girl screams) Big Grin

No peter tuckers. I despise those round-bowl toilets.

And seat and lid DOWN. I don't want to spray my entire bathroom with aerosoled piss/crap when I flush my toilet.

Pretty big pet peeves with me.




Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard.

Yes, and that makes it worse.

Flushing the toilet brings water in that is 15-25 degrees warmer than the internal temps, and that warmer water creates condensation under the seat and lid.

With the lid up, there is enough airflow for the water vapor to dissipate.

If I run my faucets, the first 10-20 seconds, the water is cool from cold soaking from the temps in the house/walls/pipes, then it rises to about 85-90 degrees when the outside temps are mid 90s.

^^^This

Flushing sprays fecal matter into the air. If you put the lid down every time you flush and don't clean your toilet, after a month or so, you'll see bacterial growth on the underside of the lid, b/c hello? That stuff goes up when you flush. It's especially gross when you have a toilet located next to where you keep your toothbrush.

If I ever build a house, it'll have a urinal in at least the master bath, if not in every bathroom.
