You're weird because apparently you don't clean your bathroom floors.

Sure, microscopic amounts of pee gets on the floor. Then, every couple of weeks you clean your bathroom.

You know that when you flush a toilet you aerosolize a bit of the contents and they drift out and land around the room too. Does that bother you?

That’s why you close the lid to flush… That absolutely bothers me, I wear retainers and they clean in a solution on the counter during the day. I don’t want pee on them or my toothbrush!

I'm sorry to tell you this but closing the lid doesn't stop viral aerosol contamination and it's been researched https://www.ajicjournal.org/article/S0196-6553(23)00820-9/fulltext

So, it doesn't stop it, but it definitely helps.

Every toilet I've seen has a big air gap under the seat even when the seat is down.

[–] shroomato@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Every mask I've worn during covid had gaps all around as well

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

You were wearing it wrong.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

Which is why only an N95 or similar had any benefit for the wearer.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago

Closing the lid makes zero difference.

I guess I would just say that I feel the acceptable amount for one to pee on their own floor willfully is none. Flushing may present a new issue after the fact, but I can't see a way around flushing. I can however see a way around electing to pee in a sloppy manner because I'm lazy. Though arguably sitting is famously more comfortable than standing, so perhaps impatient would be more accurate than lazy.

There is one, embrace the sink. Become a sink pisser, it's just like a pissoir which you wash your hands and face in!

Nobody's talking about willfully peeing on the floor, we're only talking about microscopic amounts of pee mist that could drift away from the stream when you're peeing from 50 cm from the bowl instead of 10 cm from the bowl.

If you stay seated it’s just your legs that get aerosolized and that’s even easier to wash

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Unless you take a bath / shower immediately after using the toilet, you're then walking around with a thin coating of waste on you all day.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Like you don't do that just by living.

You guys should never check out videos about how many bacteria and way worse stuff that lives on us, in our ears and so on lol.

[–] theolodis@feddit.org -2 points 3 days ago

by your own logic, why bother using the toilet, or even having one? Just pee on the floor like a real man. I mean you clean it anyways.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I just don't want to piss on other peoples floor. Its one thing to piss on my floor and for me to clean it up, its another thing to piss on someone elses floor and expect them to clean it up.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works -2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

So, don't piss on other people's floors. Aim better. You can still do that while standing up.

If that escapes the bowl, you're doing it wrong.

Maybe. If only my urethra would mimick those fancy handmade Japanese tea pots.
