Am I the only one who won't flush the toilet at night?

I'm convinced that if I do, the noise will wake me up 100% and it will be harder to fall back asleep.

Am I a genius or crazy?

If it's yellow, let is mellow. If it's brown, flush it down. Words to live by when doing your business at night!

The dump is the exception to the rule, although I can't remember the last time I did that in the middle of the night.

the "if its yellow its mellow" rule stands in our house. the bathroom is next to my kids room and if we flush, he wakes up....

You could always just pee in the shower :headroll:

GEORGE: Aha. Aha. Could it be because you don't want him to know that you have a friend who pees in the shower, is that it?!

ELAINE: No, that's not it!

GEORGE: Oh, I think it is! I think that's exactly what it is!

ELAINE: Why couldn't you just wait?

GEORGE: I was there! I saw a drain!

ELAINE: Since when is a drain a toilet?!

GEORGE: It's all pipes! What's the difference?!

ELAINE: Different pipes go to different places! You're gonna mix 'em up!

GEORGE: I'll call a plumber right now!

Good episode of Seinfeld.

Flushing the toilet is what seperates my bathroom from a honeybucket. If I piss,shit,or puke, I'm flushing.

If it's 3 am and someone wakes up in my house after I flush it's because they have the same idea.

I read that the only thing that will keep you awake once you get up in the middle of the night are lights. I generally go to the bathroom most nights at 2am or so (sorry if that's TMI). I don't turn on any lights, always flush and am back to sleep within 5 minutes.

At my age going back to sleep after I take a leak isn't the problem.............waking up "before" I take the leak is my only concern.

Three old men are sitting on the porch of a retirement home. The first says, "Fellas, I got real problems. I'm seventy years old. Every morning at seven o'clock I get up and I try to urinate. All day long I try to urinate. They give me all kinds of medicine but nothing helps."
The second old man says, "You think you have problems. I'm eighty years old. Every morning at 8:00 I get up and try to move my bowels. I try all day long. They give me all kinds of stuff but nothing helps."
Finally the third old man speaks up, "Fellas: I'm ninety years old. Every morning at 7:00 sharp I urinate. Every morning at 8:00 I move my bowels. Every morning at 9:00 sharp I wake up."

Too damn funny Ken. :rofl:


If I am unsure will wake someone, I just close the bathroom door and flush whenever I feel like it.
