Toilet Seat Humour-Do you leave yours "Up or Down"?

This is another Mars and Venus issue in the Home. I have been well trained. I always leave it down after the fact. It is one less thing that I can get in trouble for.

haha very good. I wish you would come here and train my lot. I have three sons and I'm lucky if they actually manage to get any of their pee in the loo, there's certainly no chance of them ever putting the loo seat back down.

The Old Tarf said...

RB- Glad you came for a visit. laughter is a good thing. You can actually buy a loo seat that automatically comes down after a few moments or so.

I grew up in a household with all women, so I had to learn at a early age. And that of having to make my own meals and wash up if I didn't.

Aren't little boys terrible ?

I always brush and spray afterwards. I get beats otherwise.

Elby sits down :-) I have him well trained.

The Old Tarf said...

EK- "Aren't little boys terrible."

We usually grow up to be terrible bigger boys. I emphasis the word "Boys". As we never grow up.

Lilith-"I have him well trained." You and my wife must have used the same text book and teaching methods.

Cruel !!!

My husband and son are very good and always leave the seat down. I do have 2 girls, and there's me, so all hell would break loose if they didn't. Although, I don't quite understand why it has to be such an issue, as long as the pee goes inside the toilet that should be all that matters.

The Old Tarf said...

Supermum- You are right. The key is go's inside the toilet.

But it is the fun of the Hunt. Gives us something else to laugh and titter about. Saves on the topic of Politics and the Weather.

How you manage to keep it all together with so much going on in your busy life is beyond me.

Oh I'm with you...I cried with joy after meeting my husband and realized he was a man, rare, so rare, who always left the seat down, did not piss all over the floor when drunk and who even managed to put his filthy underpants in the laundry basket. It was a three pronged romantic attack that captured my heart...

The Old Tarf said...

Emmak-Welcome. Thank you for the visit.

It is surprising how important this whole issue is.

Happy Easter

Electro-Kevin said...

Happy Easter to you too.

The Old Tarf said...

EK-Same to you and your family.

The Hitch said...

The Tarf family seem to have a very unhealthy interest in all matters lavatorial.
No doubt this comes from having to run out of the house at 3 am when its minus 40 degrees and pee in the snow before something drops off (+:

The Old Tarf said...

Hitch- it has already fallen off. As we live in a "igloo" and have to fight off wolves and polar bears. Just to get the moose carcass from the snow bank freezer. At least our beer is always ice cold.

The Old Tarf said...

Daisy-As a true male of the species. I had to read the IF comment twice before the penny dropped. LOL

Daisy said...

Why is the seat supposed to be left down anyway? What difference does it make? This is the kind of question that blogging is all about...

Happy Easter to You Old tarf!!

Daisy said...

because my very dear Mutley...if you are a woman and you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and the seat is up...you fall in...and believe me it is not a pleasant experience even in the cleanest of toilets...

LOOK just take a leaf out of my book and BREAK THE SEAT. That way the man will get so annoyed at having to fix a new seat on each time that he won't ever touch it. Instead he will use the garden like the dog he is.

The Old Tarf said...

Mutley- I guess toilet seats are difficult to maneuver if you have no thumbs. I do have that potted plant still in the spare room.

Daisy-Bravo.

Merms- I see they have a sale on at Rona's on toilet fixtures for the next month. Just in time. I do extra get Airmiless.

Mr Pineapples said...

Hey Old Tart....P liked your toliet seat humour.

Hve u noticed that gals hang the bog-roll with the paper nearest the wall - whilst the gents hang it on the outside?

Have you noticed that?

Can u get a funny message sorted on this theme: "Which way do you hang your bog-roll".

The Old Tarf said...

Mr. Pineapples- already done that-

nice very nice.

The Poet Laura-eate said...

I think when a marriage gets this petty, it is probably in trouble & the argument is not really about a toilet seat at all.

Either that or the couple concerned need to get out more!

Mr Pineapples said...

"Get out more"??

But whissing in the open air is against the law.

The Old Tarf said...

Poet- laura-eate- I do not know whether they should go out or not. I can just hear it at some restaurant.

You forgot to put the toilet seat down again? Yes Dear. Sorry Dear. Now look what you done . Mother is stuck again.

Mr.P-Only if it is against the fan. So do not eat the Yellow Snow.
