    Flushing with the lid up is gross. I do not want to have poo particles flying around and landing on my toothbrush. But maybe that is just me… ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      sorry to ruin your life but mythbusters tested this and no matter how much protection your toothbrush has there will still be poo particles on it

        Fair enough. But if any poo particles are getting on my toothbrush when the lid is down, more will be getting on when the lid is open. Besides, I also keep the toothbrush in a cabinet so double protection.

          That was part of the test, there was essentially no difference. The particles that can become airborne are small Enough they floating around everywhere regardless of how they get out. The real problem is how huge the gap is between the seat and rim. Needs a rubber skirt or something
