Poll: Which is worse a warm toilet seat or a cold one?

[Ham_authority95]

The age old conundrum will finally be solved in this intellectual arena. Go forth and cast your vote my comrades! For tonight we answer a question that has plagued mankind for centuries. Which is worse, a cold toilet seat or a warm one? You decide.

Cold. I would pay money for a self-heating toilet seat.

Me when I sit on a warm seat.

I just don't like it. Blah.

 

[Hatchet90]

I'm under the impression that this seat is warm because it's supposed to be warm. Otherwise I would choose cold.

 

[spielberg11]

Well, usually I'd say cold, but I still am forced to use school toilets, which seems to have an invisible rule of 'If you're a manly man, pee all over the floor and the seat. Hell, getting any in the bowl means points off.'

...not something I find very fun.

Im down with teh cold seat. A warm one make me think either "well someone just used this thing and i dont know what kind of ass nasties they have" or "eww someone pissed and shit all over this thing and iped it off eww."

 

[Con Carne]

I'm a generally warm individual and don't like a warm toilet seat. I hate butt warm toilets. I hate warm toilets in general, but the former is far worse. Cold toilets are great, unless they're too cold and even then, they will be warm shortly.

I HATE the feeling of a warm toilet seat. Cold, though, is actually quite pleasant, in my opinion.

 

[Jegsimmons]

how about a gas station toilet seat.

 

[Communist partisan]

Wet, wet and yet again wet, nothing is worse than a wet toilet seat!

And in Sweden nearly all standard toilet seats are made from plastic so they are never warm or cold.

 

[anthony87]

......why would anyone hate a warm toilet seat?

 

[FalloutJack]

Sit down in winter and sit down in summer. If you still think that a warm one is bad, then it's down to you. Cold ones are proof that there is a snowball left in hell.

 

[LarenzoAOG]

Cold is uncomfortable, but warm means that you are putting your bare ass in a place where another persons bare ass recently was, which could be bad news if your using a public toilet.

Depends on WHY it's warm. Otherwise cold is worse. I especially hate it when a man has been in for a wee and neglected to put the seat down, and there I am, stumbling into the loo bleary-eyed, not checking and end up sitting down on cold porcelain.

Speaking for all man kind, "do it yourself". How about lifting it when your done? Since the chances of you using it again before us is slim, then why not?

Seems silly to just assume something is there without checking to see if it is.

On topic. Use toilet paper, the seat is never cold or warm ... it's soft and tepid. Everybody is a winner.

Don't know what else to say really ...

I just think that if you're the one to put the seat up then you're the one who should put the seat down. Small courtesies to the people with whom you are cohabitating. But of course I do it myself (when I am coherent and awake enough to see it before sitting), and I'm not about to slap the guy around for leaving it up. If anything I might make a joke about it =P

As it is I am single and living alone and thus no longer have to put up with it =D


EDIT: Also you have to sit to poo like us females, so leave the seat down for your fellow men too =)

Which just loops back to my point, the chances of us using the toilet after you is higher than you going twice before us, so lift the seat. It's a two way street, I will gladly put it down, if the lady of the house puts it up after herself.

Nah, I guy is not lazy enough to not look where the seat is, so he just knocks it down. I don't think any guys have sat down without a seat.

... This is such a bizarre conversation to have with a total stranger, +1 awesome for the internet.

Pooing is like a one a day activity, not something to take into consideration. Taking a leak is like a 6 times a day thing.

If you want to avoid the whole sitting on the rim situation buy a sheewee, if I was a girl I would be all over that thing like white on rice!

If the toilet is in my house - who cares? unless it's wet, but even then its just the stupid dog drinking out of it.
If it is in public - why are you sitting on the seat? Have you gone mad?

Unfortunately those sheewee things are not half as cool as they seem like they should be

Edit: Anyone who wants to perfect the technology would be a hero though!

 

[vxicepickxv]

Is it public? Is it a temperature to be expected based on conditions? Is it a heated seat? Is it a cooled seat?

 

[ApeShapeDeity]

Aww, man. How cold are we talking here? If -ve deg C. I guess i'll take the warm one... eww.

What could be more awesome than a woman with a beaver avatar talking about sheewees? It's almost as crazy as one of them stories you write but every so often you leave a space so somebody can put in a random word. (I wish I could remember there name)

How don't they work? Just hold it against your lady garden and tinkle. If your feeling extra lazy buy crotchless underware and wear it all day, go to the loo like a guy then.

(if anybody who reads this knows what I mean, tell me the name, it will drive me insane thinking about it)
