Toilet seat up or down #1

Sunday, January 29th, 2012

Should the toilet seat be left up or down?
This controversial topic will be discussed over the next few weeks
It’s a question that constantly arises when men and women share the same toilet. For some reason, this seemingly trivial question creates passion normally unseen from all sorts of people. It has been a topic of great debate throughout this country for many years, in fact since the toilet seat was invented.
It’s pretty clear that this old debate and your “position” is divided by gender.
Women complain that it should be the man’s responsibility to lower the toilet seat after use.
Whilst men seem to question why women should be heard all the time. Or in fact why it’s an issue at all
Now my wife, living in a houshold with 4 boys is incredibly patient about this subject. In fact her biggest complaint is about our aim, So, to get the ball rolling on this, I have to share this great image sent to me by Marc Dussault.

Let me know what happens in your house, how the boys and girls deal with this topic of ups and downs!

In previous blog posts on urinals  and toilets, I showed you a field goal in a urinal to reduce spillage as well as the infamous fly in the urinal at Schiphol Airport. So once again, courtesy of Exponential Growth Strategist (http://www.ExponentialPrograms.com) Dr Marc Dussault (http://www.MarcDussault.com)  here is another photo, this time of  an unknown location in Amsterdam. This is just another example how we can all take life a little less seriously and enjoy ourselves a little more.
