which way does your toilet flush? Clockwise or counter-clockwise?

I have no idea, it depends on if I look from inside the toilet or from upside the toilet I guess. Ask Lisa Simpson,she might know :S
This phenomenon is due to the earths magnetic feilds. In the northern hemisphere it rotates counter clockerwise. In the southern hemisphere it rotates clockwise. If you are on the equator it just drops straight :D.

BTW the same effect is noticable in weather patterns too.
i know the science. this is ment to be a fun thread just for ****s and giggles
Is it just me or has the amount of toilet humor increased significantly last couple of months? :heh:

Anyway, I never look back.... it's the best to leave the past behind you, and get out of the small room ASAP :p

I don't know whether you're being sarcastic or not (if you're being sarcastic, forgive my misunderstanding ;) ), but the rotation of a toilet's flush has nothing to do with Earth's magnetic fields, or the Coriolis effect (but you're right about the weather patterns, though).

There's a great article called Bad Coriolis, which explains this misconception in great detail. I can't recommend it enough ;)

I offered this explanation even in case you were just being sarcastic, for the sake of the people who doesn't know better. I hope you take no offense ;)
o_O

mine is counterclockwise.. what a stupid thread -_-
Uhm, does it really matter? :p

Dude, why would you think of such a thread, huh? Why, Why, Why ?
Anyways it's clockwise.

What do you mean :laugh: ? (ok stop it right now :p )
Anyway , I don't look at my toilet flush . I just cover it first . Anyway , who wants to look at his shi* rotating clock or anti clock-wise ? :rolleyes:
Well we had the thread about someone who needed to fart a lot on one particular night :p

I think it's more due to the design of the toilet than anything
