My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

yurkNever, NEVER, use the seat on a public toilet. You need to practice the hover method of crapping without touching any part of the pan at all.
Doesnt matter where the bog is located - every single bodily fluid you can imagine has been splattered all over that seat at some point, and by way of cleaning, it gets a half-assed wipe over by some minimum-wage type who is hardly interested in doing a good hygenic cleanup.
Maybe im just over-sensitive about this sort of thing? The first thing I do when moving into a new house/flat is to kick the bog seat off and fit a new one. The thought of hundreds of strange arses touching it before me, the brown stains of stale piss around the fixings for the hinges...... *shudders*

I'm with youAlthough I don't change the toilet seat, I just clean it with bleach until my hands hurt.
