Public Toilet Seat Rant!!!

    Right so I was just in college and needed to go for a whizz. So I make my way to the bathroom which happens to be probably the nicest of all the bathrooms on the campus. Urinals full so I decide to use the cubicle. And that's when I see it. Urine splattered all over the seat. The others were also full so I have to use this one. It's a bit of a walk to the next bathroom and I'm dying to go so I use it.

    I know it's the minority here but what kind of person can not even be bothered to lift the toilet seat when going for a whizz? It's disgusting. Simple as! What's even more worrying is that some people(mainly groups of immature lads) think it's a great laugh, not even a thought of consideration for the poor guy who has to clean it up at the end of every day! Oh and would it kill you to flush aswell!?

    So the question i put forth to you today is....Do you lift the toilet seat when going for a No.1? If not, why?

    And don't even get me started on the people who refuse to flush after a No. 2.....


    P.S Ladies, what's the situation like in your public toilets? I'm assuming it's not as bad or is it.....

    Do you clean up after yourself and do you flush? 79 votes

    Try this age old dilemma on for size also:

    - You go into a cubicle/bathroom (at a party etc)
    - Someone has DRENCHED the seat, demolished.
    - YOU'RE sure as hell not cleanin it up
    - You finish up, and hear someone outside waitin!

    - Godamnit... What do you say!?

    I dont use public toilets. If I need a 1 or a 2 I go to a hotel because if Im not at home Im in the car and wait until I get to a hotel BUT not every hotel because some a **** holes(see what I did :D).

    Some hotels are No1 hotels only and others are No2 hotels.

    I dont like hearing people going to the toilet even my own GF. If Im in bed and she wants the toilet I make her use the upstairs or downstairs toilet but certainly not the ensuite.

    I dont like people hearing me use the toilet either.

    The best hotel toilet in the country is the Brehon Killarney. They are always empty the music is loud and the toilet paper is expensive. :D:D

    Disgusting.

    If I have to use a public toilet I will not touch it, if I piss on it? Meh... it's probably making it cleaner. If it's my local pub, the toilet at work or my college it is slightly differant. Would clean the seat afterwards. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,942 ✭✭✭Danbo!


    I don't lift the seat. Why? Because it's filthy.

    I don't clean up. Why? Because I can aim for the bowl and don't involuntarily piss all over the seat.

    Meh, I don't think college or pub fall under the exceptions umbrella for me unfortunately! They're usually rancid too.

    Easy, I just lift the ring with my shoe-clad foot before pissing.
    Old fellas just piss on the ring I've seen in old man pubs, disgusting.

    I remember when i worked in a train station i had to clean the toilets. One day i had to clean a piece of s**t that some women left on a toilet seat in the womens toilets.

    Another time i was cleaning the toilets on the train and there was a blood soaked sanitary towel left on the sink.

    Women are surprisingly dirty.:eek:

    I remember in my 1st year in UCD, the taps in the downstairs jacks were broken for a few days, so everyone just washed their hands in the drinking fountain.

    It's generally worse. Women "hover" you see, by and large. They've gotten pretty adept at it, but in your usual pub toilet, not only are they afraid of putting their arse on the plastic (regardless of how much they've scrubbed it), but they're afraid of touching anything else. So it's basically just a half-squat over the toilet bowl.

    Now I don't need to tell AH that performing a half-squat with your trousers around your knees after 3 vodka and cokes, will usually end in a lot of circular motions, and probably quite a bit of bouncing off walls or even falling forward.

    Many women also cover the entire toilet seat in toilet paper (some do this *and* hover!) and then put the equivalent of three redwoods into the toilet when they finish and wonder why it won't flush.

    Some men pee on the seat. If there are no more cubicles, you get a wad of paper and clean it off. Outside of that, there's not much men do wrong. Although I have seen skidmarks on the seat before. How?

    Too bad everybody doesn't have this trick down!

    Public toilets are normally a disgrace:mad: Luckily there are certain toilets in my college which are great:D

    Oh never commented on this - I don't think I've touched a flusher with my hand in a long long time. Cublicle foot flexibility all the way. That's why some of em are so "industrial" or heavy duty; The manufacturers know it's a kick they get most of the time!

    Thinking about the poor bastard that has to clean it up is what makes it so enjoyable.

    I don't see what your getting so upset about unless you have to sit down to piss. Isn't piss sterile anyway?

    My toilet seat at home is always down, the idiots that fitted it put the tank to far forward so the lid won't stay up. My pissing skills are of ninja standard because of it. I could take the eye out of a crows head from distance.

    I used to open the shop we had wearing disposable gloves because people used to piss on the locks.

    How do I know? I used to piss on the same locks before we bought the shop!! :D:D:D:D
