We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

How about just sitting down on the toilet? Don't get me wrong it's great you got it checked out but sometimes there are pretty simple solutions.
I knew a guy in high school that absolutely refused to sit to pee. Said every time he had to shit he would stand to pee than turn around and go.
Some men are just insane
What was his reasoning?
Said only females and cripples sit to pee
Yep, that's about as insane as I was expecting, lol.
I asked him if he ever cropped dusted himself by accident and everyone laughed when he hesitated
I will sit when every toilet is elongated enough to not risk rubbing my junk on the rim.
Look at mister two and a half inches over here.
Sitting down isn't always feasible. For example, the bathroom in my house has a round toilet bowl and my cock doesn't fit. The bathroom is too small for an elongated bowl.
I use a cup for home and at work I just do my best.
I have no idea how small your toilet or large your penis is, but what do you do with your penis, when you have bowel movement?
My penis sits on the toilet seat between my legs. It's uncomfortable to put under the seat to pee.
How do you not pee while poopping? I thought all poopoo times were peepee times.
Maybe he does. Where do you think all these liters off spilled pee are coming from?
