Got to put the lid on the loo down when flushing it.
I do that to prevent escaping toilet water and the like. It's not weird it's sound logic.
In public toilets that look especially disgusting I'll put toilet paper on the seat, but if you want really weird habits ask the french about their service stations. In some places, the women don't have toilets, they have holes, I didn't use these for the irrational fear of falling in.
I never noticed that one in france, but it's the standard for 'toilets' in large parts of asia.
Good luck trying to find an actual toilet. You basically only get those in expensive places that are literally only used by western tourists.
Even japan still has the 'hole in the ground' toilets in some places, even though they seem quite fond of toilet seats with gadgetry the likes of which you'd never see anywhere around here...
Of course, that doesn't quite match the weirdness some men's toilets can have:
Like this one:
http://www.smh.com.au/travel/travel-news/hotel-urinal-makes-a-splash-on-world-top-10-list-20101104-17em5.html - Where you have a one-way mirror, so you can see out from the toilet, but people can't see in.
(Though it'd leave me feeling decidedly exposed.)
Then there was the toilet that seemed to have a waterfall built into a glass wall, and more than one in high-rise buildings where you'd better hope you're not afraid of heights.
Although... It has to be said most of these really weird toilet features are in men's toilets.
Then again, going back to japan, there's also stuff like this:

(And wierder/scarier.)
And...
Special mention has to go to the handful of female urinals that exist around the world.
(Though I can't quite find a suitable example right now.)
Of course, all of that's just... Slightly off-topic. Then again, I don't really have many specific toilet habits of my own...
