U.S. Congress decided recently that anything with two tablespoons of tomato sauce is now classified as a vegetable. This include pizza. (French fries was already considered a vegetable.)

Apparently I like vegetables much more than I thought.

This is not a good idea as urine particles can shoot up to 6 feet when flushing the toilet. I try to remember to shut the lid before I flush, so I certainly wouldn't want to still be sitting there!

This is very true and scientifically proven. But it's everything that flies up, not just urine particles. Anything trapped in that bowl with the water goes whoosh and up, up and away. So, unless you've JUST scrubbed it really good with bleach or whatever you use....

Ebon and I have had multiple debates about this.

Yes, multiple.

However, if it's the difference between flushing it while you are on it and flooding my bathroom, you had BEST flush.

Just sayin'.
