I don't get it. Why would anyone sit on the toilet with the cover down? This is clearly fake like every other one of these social media posts, and it's just a design. Obviously not really a mood ring toilet.
I sit on toilets with the lid down. At that point it's just a chair.
I'm always concerned that my weight will break it. I don't weigh that much but it's an irrational fear I have.
I put my clothes and stuff on it when I shower though.
The toilet is obviously designed to hold your weight, since its normal use involves sitting on it.
The lid spans about a foot across the bowl rim and is typically made of wood or plastic about 1/2" thick. Those materials are plenty strong enough to hold the weight of a human across that size span.
The only lids I would hesitate to sit on are the absolute bottom-dollar cheap plastic ones like this, where the lid has been hollowed out to save material.
I actually experienced breaking a toilet lid by sitting on it once (I'm like 70 kg). It wasn't even one of those crappy ones. The problem was that it was designed with a slight upward arch and far too few points of contact with the seat, so if you sat down in just the right way (and happened to have your wallet in your back pocket) all the force was concentrated in the perfect way to make it crack.
I used to sit down on toilet lids without batting an eye, but now I am scarred.
I have stood on top of a toilet lid. I am not a light man.
although I don't recommend standing on one, sitting is expected.
I think you're on to something...
bruh, I sit on the lid to trim my finger and toe nails after a shower.
it's used even though uncultured swine refuses to admit to it.
I've also used it as a stool shave my balls before your mom comes over.
it’s a good seat for doing anything in the bathroom that isn’t pooping, the best part is you can take the lid off and then it’s the best seat in the house for pooping
Someone might sit on it to do something with their feet, like utting lotion on them after a shower. I have sat on the seat with my bare ass after a shower to get a splinter out.
But yes, this is obviously a joke because of the 'mood colors' for the testicles.
Something fake on the Internet? Well I never..
