Well, I live alone. An unexpected warm toilet seat could be terrifying.
B comedy horror movie, where the blonde Final Girl realizes the baddie is inside the house because he left her a warm toilet seat.

Meanwhile the baddie is in distress, hopping from bathroom to bathroom
A wet one
A sticky one
As a person who had spent 30+ years thinking that "a warm seat = someone had been sitting long enough to make it warm" and thought it was therefore gross, now that I have a heated toilet seat/bidet combo, now I think a cold seat is worse.
To be fair, the warm from a heated seat is a different sensation than βsomeoneβs bare butt cheeks were just planted here.β
But Iβm in the same situation as you. I cringe every time I have to sit on a normal toilet seat now.
I live alone, so a warm toilet seat would be terrifying.
I can honestly say I'm pretty sure I've never once paid attention to the temperature of a toilet seat.
If it's dry I don't care.
Thatβs the thing, it makes you pay attention, at least for me. I never want to tell the temperature, but a warm seat makes me question the decision I made to sit down.
Self-heated toilet seats are awesome, so I'll go for cold being worse.
Warm. π€’
Cold is worse.
Warm.
Still has the soul of previous person.
A warm one.
Depends if it's summer or winter.
My mum's told me about putting newspaper on the seat of the outdoor toilet in the middle of winter if you absolutely had to go in the night, to make it bearable (1950s northern England). The warmth of someone else's arsecheeks is much more preferable to that, thanks.
I would have to agree with that - I'd rather have someone else's butt take the full brunt of an outdoor, nighttime, northern England, cold toilet seat. Lol - those types of cold seats are what taught me to "hover" when necessary. (Well, not specifically the same as northern England outdoor toilets, but similar)
Composting outhouse with styrofoam seat is actually really nice :D especially if it's used enough to keep the composting going, then when it's really cold outside one may experience the joy of steamy composting shit warming up your butt while going on your business. Not too bad even in the Finnish winter. Cold plastic seat in the outhouse is the worst.
I'm more bothered by the reflex to sniff the air after sitting on a warm seat and getting a nose full of the previous person's shit. :(
I'm thankful I don't have that reflex.
Yeah, but next time you sit on a warm toilet seat, you'll think about this thread and be hit with the overwhelming urge to take a whiff.
It took me a while to get used to the seat warming feature on my bidet, but now I target that bathroom on cold mornings.
The worst is when it gets hot underneath because the barbed wire has somehow escaped from the resin ...
A warm seat, juck.
Same as washing your hands with warm water, no warm seats for me.
I hope you mean you only wash your hands in hot water and that's why warm is yuck.
Washing your hands in cold water is less effective than in hot at actually cleaning them.
yeah, but soap is more important than water temp.
Sure, friction is also important. It's not a pick and choose thingβdo it all, anything less isn't washing your hands properly
