At a urinal I flush when stepping back. If it's a toilet, I always close the lid before flushing. The reasoning results from a documentary I once saw about the invisible world around us... you, know, showing a person's sneeze in slow motion with special lighting meant to make all the particles visible. A toilet is the same as a sneeze, but worse, and a bit more gross. When a toilet is flushed it puts into the air a rather large cloud of an extremely fine mist. Think Hiroshima. Yeah, like that, except pissy, germy water. Yuk. Lends a whole new meaning to "oops, I mist the can, man" eh? I can't believe I just wrote such a long comment on such a short subject :) Never.

When I was a kid I would spice it up a bit by telling myself that if I didn't win something catastrophic would happen... like the world would blow up or something. Some days I still wish I was a superhero... Haha I did it this morning!
