Tired of inconsiderate people who leave the seat down.

Koreans use a number system regarding their toilet habits..

#1 is wee wee

#2 is the other stuff...

THe picture basically says you can only do #1 in that toilet..

The number system is not just Koreans. I used it growing up. And I think most people did. By asking for an explanation, I was basically just saying this is really strange.

I don't really understand why you think it is strange. Maybe there is a problem with the toilet.

Koreans are always pissing on the seat. Whenever I use a Korean public washroom I have to wipe the seat down with toilet paper before I sit down.

Actually, I don't believe we use it in the UK that often.
