Why does my wife leave the bedclothe laundry until new years eve, so that when I go to bed pissed (drunk) and tired I'm left with a naked bed, and have to stumble through putting the duvet cover on by myself while she's undoing her make-up. Fuck, that's annoying!
My wife does the same thing! I think it must be a revenge thing for not putting the loo seat down!

Tank, how long have you been married? And you still leave the seat up? tsk, tsk, tsk!  :o

32 years in March. And the loo seat shall remain in the upright position for No. 1's.  Although I have been known to put it down and sprinkle clean water on it to reinforce my point. ;D

We've done 40 years.  Mrs Git has never grumbled about me leaving the seat up.  That's why we made 40 years.  ;D

My own response to the toilet seat argument is 'why doesn't she leave the toilet seat up?'

I believe an adversarial relationship is the secret to keeping a marriage fresh. She doesn't agree :D

My husband was in the habit of putting the toilet seat down before we met, so I can't say that it's ever been an issue with us. He's a bit of a germaphobe, though, and there are some weird things he's anal about and I oblige him to keep the peace. That marriage stuff, bit o' give and take, it is.

I do have to say that when men come in to our house and leave the toilet seat up after using the washroom it irks me a little, though. I don't know why. Maybe it's because whenever I'm in someone else's house I have a "leave it as I found it" mentality. Or, it could be that cliché women thing in my brain that makes it annoy me.  :P

Or maybe you've done the peepee/poopee math! ;)

1. Guy has to make Mr. Peepee - Seat UP is best.
2. Guy has to make Mr. Poopee - Seat DOWN is best.
3. Girl has to make Mrs. Peepee - Seat DOWN is best.
4. Girl has to make Mrs. Poopee - Seat DOWN is best.

It's three against one! ;)

It's also Kindergarten in my brain for some reason. :-[

It's been said here a million times already, but text speak needs to die in a fiery pit.  >:(  I am giving directions to a guy who is dropping off a phone that my brother bought off of Craigslist. I've had to ask him four times now to resend a message in complete English because I couldn't understand a word he was saying.

Seriously, I can't give directions to someone who spells house "hooouzz"

My response to the whole toilet thing is generally a facepalm.

It's a bloody toilet seat, ok?! If a couple argues about that, then maybe divorse is just the thing, eh?  ::)

The women in my family no longer ask about the Toilet Seat at my house.  The first few times they talked about men "leaving the seat up", I responded by asking, "Well..why don't you take care where you are putting your arse?"  This ended all complaints.

That was pretty close to the conversation that occurred at my house too.

I think you should give up your plans for world domination and pursue a career in marriage counselling. :D
