The number of people breathing their own aerosolized toilet water is too dam high!

Out of interesst: Do you then reopen the lid to check for shitstains left in the bowl, that would need cleaning before you leave?

Yes, that's definitely one of the things I should do. One day.

Nah, good for the immune system 💪💪 I keep my toothbrush out in the open too

Toilet has lid for a reason, to cover it when not in use. I am constantly flabbergasted that more people don't get that. Do they leave the mayo lidless in the fridge too because it makes it easier to make a sandwich??

I did it one time when I woke up at 3am to pee. Had to keep the light off to not wake the Mrs.

It wasn't fun. But it wasn't life ending. I got a nightlight for the bathroom after that.

A blind person?

When you wake up having to pee in the middle of the night and don't want to turn the light on

Also in general, as someone with a vulva, my mental model of a toilet is that the seat only is up for cleaning.

I've always said if a person sits on a toilet with the seat up it's a failure on two parts.

Yes the previous user should've put the seat down but who tf just plops ass first onto something without looking first?

At that point you get what you deserve, a wet stinky ass.

Habit and expectation can be powerful things. Also, our brains often fills in what we expect to see. A quick, peripheral glance at the toilet while expecting to see it in one state (seat down, lid up, for example) could leave one thinking they did see it in that state when in fact they didn't get a proper look at it.

People that are used to living alone or with other women. Established habit and all that jazz.

As a dude that has 2 sons that just piss everywhere, I've always told them to just pee sitting down. There's no shame in it fellas.

Yeah whenever you flush paricles fly everywhere with ot up so if you have uncovered toothbrushes they get a peppering of poo.

I think the joke is she's constantly putting the lid down
