Up or down?

But wouldn't that be rude for the next person that comes in if it's a male? He'll then have to lift the seat back up and who wants to touch it really? It's a 50/50 shot! :cool: |
No one has mentioned the one thing that should be of concern when using an aircraft lav...sudden turbulence. I am not a nervous flyer and love to fly...but turbulence does come out of nowhere and one could be in the lav when it does. So I get in and get out as quickly as possible....I also wear shoes even if I have to stuff my feet with heavy socks (for comfort) into my shoes and clump down the aisle...I wouldn't put a lot of money on the aim factor being that good.
Edited to add a word about the source of the water in the lav. I know absolutely nothing about holding tanks on planes but I have been boating and around boaters all my life...the same tank provides water for the galley, shower, sinks and the head....I have never seen or heard anyone tell of a problem with lines mixed up allowing water to flow to anyplace other than intended...not that it couldn't happen.... just not heard of it....and an aircraft could be a whole different story....would like to know if it is. |

Wrong! Leaving the seat raised reduces the likelihood that the next inconsiderate doofus will cover it in urine.

Do what I do, don't wear shoes in the house. Shoes are taken off before anyone enters my house. So nothing gross gets tracked in.
Oh and when I have something delivered, I lay down old sheets so they don't touch my floors/carpets. |

Actually you should put the seat and the cover down! When that thing flushes, I don't want to think about what is released into the air within that little bathroom. Yuck!! I always close it before flushing.
Me too! |

What really grosses me off: men who believe they can aim during turbolences and make a mess of the place. Worse are those of course, who admit they won't be able to aim well and attempt it anyway. Would it be too much to ask to just sit down? HTB. |

There is also this excerpt from the book on his site: A fellow flight attendant told me of another embarrassing sex-in-the-lav story. Soon after a man and woman entered the lavatory together, a flight attendant call button rang. It rang again and again, in a rhythmic pattern that was not unlike the bell at a train crossing. Realizing that the call emanated from the lavatory in which the couple had entered, and that the call button was being bumped repeatedly during the throes of passion, flight attendants stood outside and waited. When the door finally opened, the red-faced couple was presented with a bottle of champagne. |

I tried to cover the floor with papertowels to absorb some of the moisture and then had to keep my pants hiked to my knees (to keep them from touching the floor) while trying not to touch anything near the toilet with any part of my body. It was painful but thankfully, I believe the only contaminated part of me when I left the restroom was the soles of my shoes. :mad: It was disgusting.
I still don't understand how anyone can walk in a public restroom in their barefeet! |
mythbusters did a thing on the toilet water vaporization thing - although i don't know what the result was.
