******Toilet seats in public restrooms rarely have lids*****

Beware the "Toilet Plume"

[Vigilanteman]

Simple solution is closing the lid before flushing, especially with a no. 2.

AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

This INSANITY has to STOP!! This is getting effing ridiculous!!!!

[dp0622]

We’re supposed to flush??

[hinckley buzzard]

Geez. People have to be told that?

[rfp1234]

Just don’t let it hit the fan.

[DesertRhino]

And not flushing it might give you cholera. Your move...

Now it all makes sense as to why Covid19 is so scarce in India. They don’t use toilets... just a hole in the ground. True! Only 30% of the population have toilets.

So taking a dump is a crap shoot

[Rurudyne]

Yep. I mean, dude, many of us keep our toothbrushes in that room.

How did anyone survive the days when everyone kept their toothbrushes openly dangling from a common wall fixture?

This is like all those news stories about 10 years ago. “Do you prefer asparagus to broccoli? You might be destroying the planet...”.

[EvilCapitalist]

Give the dems/swamp credit. They’re trying to keep this going until November.

I have become very aware of that and am developing the habit of doing so every time I flush.

Authors of that paper need to find something worthwhile to do rather than write papers.

[KobraKai]

Might explain Mexico to some extent since they put toilet paper in a trash can.

I remember being in the hospital after childbirth, flushing urine, and seeing a trail of fecal matter show up from some backwash in the system. And it was one of those dampen your backside toilets if you flushed sitting down, so definitely aerosolizing.

No wonder they wanted my baby to get a hepatitis shot!

I would wash my hands before flushing, flush with a paper towel over the handle, and flee.

[Rurudyne]

Not unlike telling jokes.

[discostu]

Only if you sit on it while flushing. And then you deserve whatever happens to you.

[glennaro]

It certainly is ... and would be downright hilarious if it wasn't so serious.

My advice to those who live in fear of this latest "health crises": Rather than leaning down over the bowl to watch your turd circle down the drain, instead run out screaming to anyone who will listen that you successfully "dropped a deuce!!" That way, you won't be exposed to the turdrona virus.

I notice in all these “causes” of coronavirus the Enemedia is going to great lengths to blame everyone and everything except China for the source of this virus.
