Yep.
The whole “seat up or down” argument loses all momentum when you realize that the lid should always be closed before you flush anyway. >

I completely agree and I’ve been yelled at for this. If I can lift the goddamn seat every time, it won’t kill you to lift the lid. And yes, I’ve had things fall in before, so it’s just basic common sense. >

After seeing some video with lasers and particles from flushing, I completely agree. I already closed the lid to begin with, don't want stuff falling in toilet water, but the video was gross. >

I’m so glad my bf was trained to do this prior to us dating. While particles can still arise it minimizes it significantly.
