[POLL] Toilet Seat Covers

I just stand as far away from the toilet as possible and see if I can project it in still, like when us guys get drunk and do the same thing pissing in the urinal.

I pretend it is the last second shot in the NBA finals, and I am Kobe Bryant. "Three, two, one....."


I havent made it yet, but when I do, you will hear a scream of elation come from the bathroom at my work.

I do a quick visual inspection. If there is any hair or small amount of liquid on the seat I just wipe it off with TP.

If it's bad enough that a quick wipe-down won't take care of it, then I find a different stall.

i swear people stand up while dropping bombs here. How else can you miss the entire bowl?

It's amazing cause our bathroom is pretty much used by our department only. And it's nice 90% of the time. But that other 10%, holy crap. It's terrible knowing someone you sit next to can't take a crap in a bowl.
 
What are needed in restrooms are toilet seats that are spring-loaded to always be in the up position. That way the SLOBS who refuse to raise the seats while urinating will at least be forced to practice common courtesy whether they like it or not--through the use of technology(spring).
 
if it's visibly dirty I check the next stall, or wipe, but no never even heard of covers.

Also is it true in some places in the states there are NO toilet seats in public washrooms? I think I heard that, but that's kinda... messed.
 
If I don't have to go very bad, I'll take the time to lay out some TP or a cover.

If I've got a turtle sniffin' cotton, a wipe down will do.

I don't go on road trips.
I'm also one of those who doesn't have a bowel movement every day or 2x a day.
I have on average about 3 per week, never more than 4.

Even if it's a 14hr road trip, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to handle it.

Places used to have these a long time ago and I don't know why they got rid of them. I wish seats would stay up unless you were sitting on them. A lot less chance someone's going to pee on it
 
Ass gaskets are for wimps. Honestly I think the people who obsess about this kind of thing (and who use Purel and feel the need to use paper towels to touch the bathroom door handle) are bizarre, and probably LESS healthy than those of us who don't bother. Who ever heard of anyone getting an illness from a toilet seat?

This is true. I think this is also why we see more issues with babies getting sick. The maternity ward and the processes they use are TOO clean. There should still be a certain amount of bacteria introduced slowly to new borns as it would make them stronger.

Is that right. I don't think I have ever seen one. But if they were produced at one time they should have never stopped.
