I don't have to. 99% of my "in a public place" movements happen at the office, and the hypersensitive sensor flushes at least 6 or 7 times in a 5 minute sitting. Just the act of breathing is enough to make the thing flush. Between that and the insane use of A/C in my office building, I must work in the most ungreen building in NYC.
 
Flush when you're freakin' finished. If I'm waiting, I don't want you wasting my damn time and giving me a false start toward your stall. If the toilet is ready to flush again before I get out and it's still a mess, I may flush again, but that is completely different.
 
You absolutely have to in jail, or you can end up getting your ass kicked. Even though the toilets are seperated by what car (race) you are in, you still dont want your peckerwood stank wafting over at Southsider dropping a load a few toilets down. There are no stalls either.
 
A courtesy flush is used when you are feeling polite, and don't want your stank to linger over into the stall next to you possibly offending the occupant.

Edit: Flush your dirty deed, and viola.. no smell!

Let's leave Viola out of this.
She doesn't even post here.

See what I did there?
Voila!
 
Hellllllllllllllll no. And I got reminded exactly why last Thursday.

I went to do a number one in the work handi-cap toilet, and noticed the water was suspiciously low, like just above where the drain is. After doing my business, I closed the lid fearing (jokingly) that there would be a geyser, then hit the plunger, and hauled ass out of the stall. Lo and behold, there's a river of water running out of the toilet, running towards the floor drain in the middle of the washroom.

Did not expect that. Oh, then I was laughing it off when someone came in, and I just got the eff out of there. Can't show my face on that floor anymore🙂.
 
I voted yes, but because I usually flush so I don't clog the fucking thing up. But in public with multiple stalls it's usually an industrial toilet which are hard but not impossible to clog.

Industrial doesn't mean it can take paper towel, and a load of wipes, sanitary foundation and splashback prevention. Some douchebag at work always managed to clog them. It's the same guy because of his signature lid down, tp left on seat.

Sure sounds like you did.
 
Yes and Yes.

Besides, you don't want to be that dick that clogs the toilet and leaves a bowl full of taco bell leftovers.
 
No, My turds are usually liquidy and therefore I do not want and splash back on my cheeks.
 
If it's a really big one I usually wont, because I want to let it fully come out and deposit itself, then get up so I can take a look and admire it, then I'll flush.

Though the toilets at the hospital where I work are so powerful, I only flush once I'm off and done wiping, so I can back away from the toilet far enough after the flush. Seriously, they splash back!
