Leaving the toilet seat up is my #1 pet peeve.
Hunh, didn't see, "Scratching your butt while you prepare
dinner."
A wet towel?
Nope, the number one irritating habit is when your husband leaves the toilet seat up.
Luckily, my husband doesn't have any problems.
I'm happy.
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
...using a fork as a back-scratcher.
Stick a fork in me...I'm done.
And leaving the toilet seat down is mine.
If you think leaving the seat up is irritating, try leaving it down, and see the reaction.
Why? you leave it down don't you?
;-=)
Not throwing away used paper towels that are wadded up on the counter ranks right up there. When asked, she responds with.."I'll reuse them". Never happens.
"The study, funded by the US government's health research arm and conducted at Louisville University"
There wouldn't be any problems if the government would stop funding stupid studys by university idiots.
The honeymoon is over
And loves a dieing flower
When she comes in and takes a crap
And your still in the shower
The loss of sex drive in married women has been traced to a food allergy. WEDDING CAKE.
My goodness! From the reactions here, I do believe I've struck a nerve! LOL! I really don't know why it's considered polite to put the toilet seat down. Maybe it has something to do with women getting a surprise when they sleepily make their way to the toilet in the middle of the night. Men generally don't have to worry about falling in! Any other suggestions?
My kids do that all the time. Except they leave them everywhere, not just on the counter.
If I want to see Mr. Gun go running out of the house screaming, I just call him "lamby." And when I want to go out to eat, I just tell him I made beanie weenie for dinner. If I want him to clean up the garage, I tell him I'm having a garage sale and anything in it is going. After all these years, I've got a million of 'em.....
I believe adamantly in leaving the seat up. How else is the poor dog going to get a drink?
Mine is putting big bulky containers in the garbage can, like detergent or bleach, just as easy to set them to the side and take them out with the bagged garbage.
"Leaving the toilet seat up is my #1 pet peeve."
Why? Why not leave the toilet seat in the position you left it. Down. Up. What makes the toilet seat down sacrosanct? Where did you learn that the toilet seat down is sacrosanct? Is it worth a rise in your blood pressure? Nonsense.
Mary --
It's simple logic.
Men are defamed by women for leaving the seat in an attitude that befits mens' use.
Women are not defamed by men for leaving the seat down. We ALWAYS check first.
Don't you see the disconnect here?
Just as men must confirm the configuration of the loo, so should women.
OR -- everyone close BOTH the seat and the lid, and all are equally inconvenienced. ;-)
