Toilet seat

Ok, so welcome to drunk blogging. Dylan got a palm pre so I am hamburger mary's typing.this.
So heres my question. In public restrooms, or anywhere girls will be using the  toilet, I leave the seat up, because I don't want the next guy to come piss on the seat. And I don't want some girl to wonder if I pissed all over the seat and just haphazarly wipe it off. Just so it stays clean and there's no question about it.
But some girls say its rude and I should leave it down.
What do you think?

Wow, it would appear that you typed this rather "haphazarly".

A person can only taker responsibility for his own bathroom actions. It is not up to you to concern yourself with the restroom user after you, that is out of your control. As an upstanding man you should lift the seat prior to doing your number 1, then lower it when you have finished and hope that those who come after you display the same bathroom respect.

A further word about etiquette, while it might seem like a wonderful idea when you are smashed and wearing a red dress, it's probably not necessary to immediately post it to the internet, instead do what drunk people have done for years, jot your genius insight down on a bar napkin where you can marvel at it later in a clear frame of mind. Then on the follwing morning, laugh at yourself and throw it away.

There are two sorts of bathroom users you need to be concerned with...everyone else deals with it in a matter of fact way.
The first is the germ freak, so no matter what you do you won't leave the bathroom up to their standards. But since they are always prepared, they will handle the situation and be fine, even if they have to puke after cleaning up.
The second user is the most dangerous, the narcissist! Because it's always all about them, they will be shocked and horrified that you didn't think of them once you finished your business in the bathroom and the only way to please them would be to scrub up the entire place before you leave. In the future, just poll the next user to see what "bathroom personality" they might be!

I don't know, I'm in-between you and Brandon on the subject. In your defense, it can be hard to type on those tiny Palm keys, resulting in "haphazar" spelling. More importantly, now that I'm reading your blog, you haven't written anything! Come on now booyyyyyy!

Human League Albums: From Worst to First!

Image
My first favorite band was The Thompson Twins. I don't know how or why. When I was at the age where someone decides that they have a favorite band, something about the Twins spoke to me and I just became obsessed. While many people quickly move on from the bands and artists they liked as a child, I am not one of those people. Thompson Twins are still a favorite of mine, but over the years, other bands have replaced them in the top spot. One such band, The Human League, has been with me for almost as long. They had been one of my favorite bands since I was about 12 or so, but they moved in to first place probably around the summer after my senior year in high school, when they released "Octopus." Here are all their studio albums ranked from least favorite, to favorite! 10.  HYSTERIA 1984 The dreaded follow up Considering they are my favorite band, I obviously wouldn't say Human League have ever made a totally awful album, but this one is definitely the closest t

Amy Crosby, 1970-2021

Image
I met Amy Crosby in either late 2000 or early 2001, at a gay bar in the valley. I don't remember exactly which one, because I had seen her here and there at various Karaoke nights, where I had noticed her amazing ability to sound just like the artist she was emulating. Whether it was Cher, Alanis, Melissa Ethridge, or Traci Bonham, Amy would get up on stage and channel her inner diva. I think the first time I got up the courage to speak to her was at Apache in Studio City, which like many places I frequented in my twenties in Los Angeles, is no longer there. At the time she had her hair bleached blond and was adopting more of a "lipstick lesbian" persona, due to the fact that the "police were after her" after some sort of car accident or something. I thought, boy this girl is interesting! From the first moment we met she was telling me tall tales that seemed too incredible to be true, her (at the time) partner Von by her side, deadpan, not giving me any indicati

All the Thompson Twins albums (+ Babble) ranked!

The Thompson Twins. They were my very first favorite band. I've been with them through the ups and downs, and the fall before last I finally got to see their songs performed by Tom Bailey, the frontman who was most responsible for the band's actual music anyway. Of course I would have preferred to see the whole band live, but it was really more than I ever imagined would happen anyway and was an amazing experience. Collecting these albums was a journey for me, the first of many similar journeys as I found and fell in love with other bands throughout my life time, but the Twins will always be the one that started it all! 10. Ether (Babble) 1996 The second and final release by Babble, the band the Thompson Twins eventually morphed into, is not really a bad album per se.  It's very chill and ambient and therefore easy to throw on in the background, but as a result it's just not that memorable. The only songs that stand out for me are "Hold the Sky," &
