Life with 4 Men - House Rule #3
Here's the one you all have been waiting for! Yep! If this one doesn't make you laugh, well, your laugh meter may need adjustment.
HOUSE RULE #3
If Mom finds pee anywhere on the toilet or the area around the toilet, all male inhabitants of this household will loose their computer privileges for one week.
a. When you miss and hit the back area of the toilet where the lid connects to the toilet, it leaks down through the screw and onto the bottom of the toilet and floor. There is no way to clean the screw except to remove it, therefore, this disgusting stuff stays on the screw making the bathroom stink. AND the lid cover soaks up the pee and stinks requiring it to be washed.
b. When you miss and it runs down the side of the toilet, it gets on the rug requiring it to be washed more often or it provides an unpleasant feeling when one steps on it AND it runs onto the floor and seeps in between the cracks of the floor and onto the wood under flooring which is impossible to clean unless you replace the whole bathroom floor therefore making the bathroom a continual stink.
c. When you miss and hit the magazine basket, well, I still can’t figure out how you are doing this and may need to find a new basket as this one always stinks now. (Update: we now have a plastic magazine rack and, although it doesn't stink, it always has dried droplets visible on it..ick!)
Optional: Cleaning the toilet once a week would be nice. You may want to practice this because once Rule #3 is satisfactorily completed, more rules may follow. You may want to set up your own cleaning duty roster/rotation.

5 WARM FUZZIES--comments SO appreciated!:
*LMBO* Well, you know I had my issues with this. I hope I can train the newest male in the household to keep it in the bowl too!
LOL!
BTW, if you threaten MORE rules once they conquer the current ones... well, that really really lessens the motivation factor for perfecting the current bunch. It's like promising broccoli for dessert! LOL
I had to laugh at Julie(it is)'s comment about Broccoli for dessert!
What is it with the toilet and guys not wiping off the edge, I mean, well GROSS!! They have to see that every time they lift the lid!
The business office for the nursery is very small most of the time just two women and one man so we KNOW who ummm...'misses'. But we have a computer guy that comes in to help who is also a good friend of all of ours. We had a discussion on which is correct (as if we don't already know) the lid up or the lid down. I said you can leave the lid up if you want as long as you wipe the edge every time. Ha ha ha I never had to say please put the lid down again! lol
Please please help this mommy with 1 dd who shares a bathroom with her 2 baby brothers! LOL The most frustrating thing...the potty with the boys. Hmmm..maybe I should have daddy make them an outhouse? LOL J/K
You should try a toilet spider it sticks above the water line and gives them something to aim at.
Just a thought
Love your rules
