    No really, you should always close the lid when you flush. Shocks me how many people don't know basic toilet etiquette and still debate the seat up or down thing when its both wrong.

    you still haven't explained why. i'll assume it's because of the faecal matter that will be expelled when you flush? well that's going to be expelled whether or not the lid is down, just in smaller quantities.

    Basically when you flush a load of water gets dumped into the bowl and throws up a load of dirty water vapour. Flushing with the lid down is less smelly and much more hygienic (while obviously not a perfect solution).

    Also proper etiquette is to leave the lid down when a toilet is not in use.

    well it pisses me off when someone does it, so that's good enough reason to me to leave it up

    Hang your arse out the bedroom window and drop your logs. You can blame the dog the next morning for the mess in the garden.

    I crapped into a jacks we don't use much and flushed the bog roll elsewhere. It absorbed most of the water by day 2 and was nearly the size of my ARM! Epic turtle head

    Close the toilet lid then sit on it, then flush, muffles the sound.

    Not for me fatty.

    If I piss in my toilet and leave it a few hours it disappears. There's a tiny trickle of water constantly coming down the side that gets rid of it. Are all toilets not like that?

    Most people have en-suite bathrooms these days. Are your friends poor?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,654 ✭✭✭SHOVELLER


    Interesting topic! Flush it would be the answer.

    On the whole toilet etiquette why do men go into a cubicle to take a piss? Then if you use the cubicle for its proper purpose there is piss all over the seat.

    Use the urinal for pissing please.

    Yea most NEW houses have en suites. For example my home house doesn't have one en suite nor do any of the houses of the same age around the area.These houses are about 25 years old. So no they're not poor, they are just not spending unnecessary money when there are enough jacks in the house!

    If anybody is angry by me flushing a damn toilet at night they can fúck off and deal with it. I suppose they wake up every time a car passes the house too, or every time the wind blows and then get all angry about it in the morning. Jaysus. Dont be afraid to flush the toilet, nobody will care.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,751 ✭✭✭Saila


    put down the ****in toilet seat! get in there first next morning...flush

    the perfect crime :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,571 ✭✭✭Aoifey!


    I hate when people don't flush, my boyfriend is always doing that in our en suite. I'd rather the slight chance of me waking up than a piss filled toilet the next morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,349 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    An alarm probably wouldn't wake me never mind a toilet flushing! Though a loud smoke alarm might rarely sleep through a house alarm. It wake me up eventually. Yet would not hear thunder, it wouldn't wake me.

    A drunken friend of mine went to go for a "barry white" in his own house,he fell ..arse first, breaking the bowl , his arse was so badly cut his wife called an ambulance for him.
    He got over thirty stitch's in his arse, from that day on he's been called CHINA ARSE.

    definitely flush, its disgusting to leave your pee sitting there until the next morning, who wants to be greeted by that:eek:

    Or you could do what a guest of my brother did one night, get really drunk, walk into your hosts bedroom naked looking for a toilet, can't find it, go back to bed and pee in that instead. Next morning, pull the duvet up to hide the wet patches, join your hosts for breakfast and say nothing about the pissy bed upstairs til they discover it for themselves later- the perfect guest.

    Always flush, I don't think other people would be happy to be greeted by your piss the next morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 479 ✭✭membersonly


    One thing I would have to advise all the ladies out there. If you're back at a house for a one night stand type thing, don't walk to the bathroom while naked, either during the night or the next morning.

    This happened once after I brought a wan back, don't think anyone saw her but I was blown away by the whole thing.

    In summary, I have had sex, at least once.
