I never did understand the concept. I go in. If it’s down and I need it up, I lift it. If it’s up and I need it down, I lower it. chances are that the position I leave it in is the position I’ll need it in the next time.
Anyone who owns small animals tends to put the seat down. It is no fun dealing with an angry, soaking wet cat who is running all over the house in full kitty-freak-out mode.
We must be the exception to the rule. Around our house, when we are done with the “potty”, the seat and lid are down before we flush. We do this to reduce the amount of “mist” created during the flushing process from escaping the bowl area!
I’m sure none of you thought about this; well, I’ll bet you will now…
In our house, with 3 kids under 5, put it down. It’s easier to put it to the necessary position than to try to revive a kid who fell in head first! None of the kids drowned when my head was turned for an instant, thank goodness, and they all survived to grow into adults…and the habit still is ingrained in our house.

I think that the female device fell into the toilet (with the seat being up) and that she’s using the rice as a desiccant.

Ladies, it’s not our fault that we leave the seat up, it’s your fault for blindly sitting without first looking to see if it’s down.

She’s taking a bath with Uncle Ben? Will she be converted?

Supposedly the way to dry out a phone that gets dropped in the toilet, is to put it in rice to absorb all the moisture…

Doesn’t seem like rocket science to me.

Miss Manners long ago gave the proper answer to seat up/down: a civilized person leaves the lid down.

@goweeder is in that category of people: ‘You should know what I want. I should not have to say it out loud. I am queenie’.

I’ve come across the perfect solution (besides living alone) to this argument, and it happened because someone didn’t do the math properly.
My bathroom door does not open with the seat down. It just barely clears the rim with the seat up.
