PUT THE TOILET SEAT DOWN!
I'm at my Mother's for Thanksgiving and it's been awhile since I have spent any time with women.

1. You can come to my house
I only bitch when the men here don't put the toilet seat UP and then piss all over it. I can live with sitting on a dry rim.

2. Try living with someone who insists on putting the toilet lid down.
I can't describe the feeling when it happens at 2 am.

15. We've kept the lid down since we had cats jump into the bowl.
Different cats; each learned quickly.

3. You know,
I have never understood this controversy. I'm gay, grew up with all women except my dad (who had his own bathroom), but I've always wondered why the GUY had to be the one to be in charge of the toilet seat. I mean, if there are three men and only one woman in the house (like a close friend of mine) then WHY do the guys have to be the one to adjust the seat?

8. I have to agree with you there
I'm a woman who has never actually demanded the menfolk put the seat down. I mean, c'mon, what is the big deal? If it's up and we want it down, then put it down before using it. If it's down and the guys need it up (the seat, the seat), they lift it up. I don't hear guys complaining to us girls about how difficult it is to move the f'n seat! Same thing in the middle of the night. You just gotta feel around for a second or two. And trust me, I'm always disoriented in the middle of the night or first thing in the morning. I dunno, I just never understood the problem, here.

19. Because men insist on being in charge of so much so often.
Edited on Fri Nov-24-06 01:40 AM by Jamastiene
Why all of a sudden should men not be in control of the shitter? :P

13. Hey toilet seat, your mother was a bed pan
and your father was an outhouse.

12. If it makes you feel any better . . . .
one of the first signs my father was adjusting to my mother's death was all the toilet seats in the house were decidedly up.

20. NO!
It'll take you a lot less time to just put the damn thing down yourself than it does to bitch about it.
