Toilet Seat Down

In Europe there is an 'anti-scatter' movement, whose aim is to encourage men to sit when urinating, and thus avoid the dispersing effect. Toilet in all countries of the continent have signs urging people to be masters and sit when they thought their business. My brother-in-law, a German lawyer, like many European men, it now sits down when he conducts his business. Because it's always been a thoughtful gentleman.

Ladies, do not get your hopes up because they never happen in America. Men in States are going to continue to stand, and they're going to continue to spread, and you - I am sorry to say - are going to continue to clean up these sprays. Why not do it themselves.

It is certainly a cultural thing, as shown in the above example of my brother-in-law and all those other European men. Part of being a man here in America is that you stand when you urinate, since you're a woman and women, you know, pee sitting down. Indeed there is something intrinsically powerful about pee standing and higher you are the stronger you feel. In fact, nothing seems more powerful than piss off a roof ... um, I'm told.

In the war of the toilet seat covers, I finally decided that both should be toilet lids down when the toilet is not in use. Wait out here, guys. I am not betraying my gender - a lot. There are good reasons to get the covers down, and none of them have to do with being tortured to death if they do not.

Number One: You do not want the dog to drink out of the toilet bowl. Do not have a dog? You could get one and it is good practice for you in the meantime to get used to it. Or you could have a friend with a dog you visit without notice, and if you want to be prepared for that. By the way, if you have a really big dog, goes down with both eyes a brick above them. They are fresh water, a perfect location for their drinking, irresistible - especially when their lazy master forgot to fill their water bowl.

Number Two: You can accidentally drop things in an open cabinet. Do you like fishing your toothbrush out of the bathroom? Or for that matter, do you like fishing something out of it all?

Thought not.

Number Three: It 's bad Feng Shui. Okay. I am a bit 'out of my element on this, but as I understand, Chi energy or life force flows naturally to the water just do not want all your Chi energy goes to the bathroom. And 'bad, believe me. To counter this you need a plant that grows on the back of your toilet (takes up the life force), or you need a bowl of rice. My choice was the plan, because if you have a bowl of rice on your crapper people think of eating rice in the bathroom, and this is kind of hard to explain.

Number Four: Maybe it's just me, but I always found an open bowl type of cologne to look scary. Alligators or Norway rats could jump out at any time. And the water itself leads directly to the dark depths of the underworld and I'd just rather see it covered and not think about this.

Number Five: It is a noble thing to do for a woman, you know how to hold a door for her, or pulling a chair for her in a restaurant, or help you get your coat, or other things so polite. I do not want to be kind? End. I just gave you four perfectly sound reasons why you should do anyway.

If you happen to be a man who lives alone and has no friends or visitors and no dogs or plans to get one of these ... Well, I'm sorry for you. None of the above apply to you. But in this case, you should really have a dog, because, man, you really need a little company. Just make sure you get a small dog who can not get in the lead then to open your cabinet.
