But what if someone does #2 in the urinal?

I dug it up and it's pretty juvenile http://theoatmeal.com/comics/peeing_sitting_down I sit to pee, just easier and it means I can take a leak at night without blinding myself with the lights.
It's pretty easy to pee standing in the dark, just stand over the toilet and aim straight down.
I'm pretty unco, I'd probably miss 50% of the time and I don't want to be cleaning up piss at 3 am.

At the risk of getting too graphic and personal, if I sit to pee in most residential toilets I tend to make unpleasant contact with the interior of the toilet rim. Ugh.
Take a piece of toilet paper, hang it down the risky area. Of course, this wastes some paper. You have to weight the cost of rainforest deforestation against the cost of treating you whatever walked onto you over the, um, bridge.
Wow. HN delivers. I was totally thinking "This comment will be seen as trollish, I should just skip it" (thus the throwaway account). But your plan is worth a try!
The main cost, btw, is extra showers between "bridge" events and sex-with-wife events.

#65Some men will pee on the seat — whether intentionally or not I have never figured out — if it's left down. Leaving it up maximizes cleanliness.
If you stick with the assumption that both Marsha and John aim to minimise the marital discord M, then John won't spill on the seat. So I guess the theory only addresses the subset of non-disfunctional marriages ;)
Marsha and John's guests and visitors, however, are a different matter.
