If I accidentally answer a public poll, I delete my answer.
I’m a solid burger and fries guy. I might consider a club sandwich, but the burger will be my final choice every time.
That would have been my second choice; and if I ate repeatedly at the same place, I’d have gotten that some of the time.
I find this result from the toilet seat poll interesting:
Of the men who live with women, 85% put the seat down after use.
Of the women who live with men, 0% put the seat up after use.
Going back ten years would allow me to correct some mistakes and start my meds earlier, so my forties would not have been quite as miserable. My children would already have been born, so no worries about butterflying them out of existence. Plus - Squeaky would be long out of diapers, so I wouldn’t have to break my self-promise of never having to change a diaper again.
Statistically, either of a couple is more likely to want the seat down on the next visit.
| Person | Function | Seat Status |
|---|---|---|
| Man | No. 1 | Up* |
| Man | No. 2 | Down |
| Woman | No. 1 | Down |
| Woman | No. 2 | Down |
*May also be down (I rarely stand when i’m at home)
No, and in a unisex office bathroom, I’d probably think a little about the ratio of men to women. If there were a lot of men and only a few women, I might leave the seat up. If there’s a guy who tends to “miss”, I might leave the seat up. If it’s closer to 50/50 with no slobs, I leave it down, and figure everyone can reconfigure the seat to their preference when they enter the room. I’m certainly not going to fight about the toilet seat position with my coworkers, unless they are doing something a lot weirder or grosser than leaving it up or down.
You need to weight those numbers by the frequency of use. A man is going to want the seat up about 10 times as often as he wants it down.
No matter how you weight the numbers, “down” is going to win if the man and the woman use the toilet an equal number of times overall. If one of them whizzes more frequently than the other, or if there are more than just the two people in the household, things become more complicated.
I’m a pharmacy technician, and I’ve only heard of one of those drugs.
I’m actually on one of those medications: Jentadueto. So, that helped me narrow the list a tiny bit.
Boy, our diner sure isn’t vegetarian-friendly! I chose bacon with my breakfast and the BLT for lunch because it’s generally easier to get them off my plate without leaving too much meat juice behind. If I had my druthers, though, I’d substitute hash browns for meat and get pancakes as well, and I’d skip the meats in the club sandwich and have a cheese sandwich instead.
If I were to somehow find myself booked on a cruise, I’d leap at the chance to get 150% of the cost refunded so I could spend it on a vacation I’d like instead.
For toilet seats, aside from any other consideration, I prefer to spray as little bacteria-laden toilet water into the room as possible, so I’m shutting the lid before I flush and I’m likely to leave it that way. This has the added benefit that I’m not going to end up dropping anything into it by accident. I just don’t like having a big bowl of water that’s recently had excrement in it sitting uncovered in a room.
Two members our family kick our shoes off at the door. The third has difficulty getting his shoes on and off, so if he’ll be going out again, he generally leaves them on. I wear slippers indoors in cool weather and go barefoot in summer, and I keep slip-on clogs or sandals by the door. Our carpet is definitely not nice enough to worry about too much, so unless your shoes are covered in mud or soaking wet, I don’t mind if you leave them on in my house.
As for public polls, I’m an open book! If I’m answering the poll, I don’t care if you know what I answered.
Yeah, I realized that after it was too late to edit it. But let’s say they offer a Beyond Meat patty in place of the beef one for the burger and patty melt, no additional charge.
I’m going to have to go back in! Patty melt, here we come!
@Mean_Mr.Mustard: are you eventually going to tell us which one’s the right answer? Or are we all supposed to google all the names to find out which ones come up as actual drugs?
The next Doper to write a novel must include a subplot in which a character struggles with addiction to Mean Mr. Mustard’s fictional drug.
Joke’s on us. I just Binged them, and they ALL appear to be names of drugs.
Eggs over easy, sausage (if a pork patty) or steak, hashbrowns, coffee, and cranberry juice.
California chicken sandwich (though the Reuben is tempting), with fries and a diet Coke.
Never heard of any of those drugs.
The answer is xoyzyxan
mmm
I’m healthy already. I’d definitely go back ten years in the time machine; I could then easily win a million dollars in betting since 2013.
