I have never personally have been of the philosophy but in my younger day I could remember being in a few acquaintances homes with this philosophy.   Just wondering if the rule is still in place for some.

Does a brownie have to come along for you to flush or can you accumulate enough yellow and decide it is time?

 
Sure - especially as I've gotten older and have to get up at night.  I never do it at someone's home unless requested (or middle of the night)

I let it mellow on my home turf.  Of course if it starts getting rank I'll flush.

 
had a 3year drought when I was growing up... yellow mellowed. brown got flush down with the water from the tub that went into a bucket while we waited for it to get warm enough for the shower. this is also very common on boats. also in other places that don't have a lot of ready and available water (islands).

eta: I only do this in the above circumstances- never at home any more.

Where was the drought at?

 
If I go in the middle of the night and don't want to wake up my wife I occasionally will. 

 
Living on a well and septic tank I'd be ok with it, but my wife and daughters yell at me if I don't flush and put the seat down. However, I don't flush during my 2-3 visits to the bathroom during the night. 

 
CA- mid 70s.

lemme rephrase... N Cal. SoCal kept on watering their lawns at noon and washing their cars with the hose running.
that the one that ended drought-to-flood, Dec '77? i was staying w friends on the Russia River when it went from 380 AFS to 28000

ETA: the nose knows on the yella. after 30some yrs in the desert, i still observe here in the Green Mts

Remember having to do that on a visit to my grandparents near SF in the late 70s. Not sure what year, but later than 77.

Stupid question, do the toilets with different flush amounts work well in drought-filled areas?

 
WTF!  Unless you live in a 3rd world country flush your piss and poop please.  That is nasty.  I want to see a clean fresh water every time I use the bathroom.  Why leave it for the next person to flush?  ####### hippy

 
My 16 month old can be a light sleeper, and the bathroom is adjacent to his room.  Will let yellow mellow during the overnight hours to not wake him. 

 
I just assumed this was a joke thread until all of the responses started rolling in. Maybe it still is a joke... I hope it's a joke. If not, none of you nasty MF'ers are getting invites for Thanksgiving. 
Just take it the next step and go full blown Howard Hughes.  

 
Bunch a Nancy's ITT.  I guess you can't use porta potties when you're at tailgates or concerts either?  Oh look, there's P in the toilet, the horror!

Funny.  I had to use a hole in the ground while in Somalia, I have had flies crawling over my butt using an outhouse in Mogadishu trying to drop a deuce, but never have I been in the US and not flushed the toilet.  We have a lot of great things in America, and one that is HIGHLY overlooked is indoor plumbing!  Indoor plumbing is often overlooked by people who have never been to a country where people are not allowed to flush paper or have enough water for toilets.  Nothing nicer than being able to relieve yourself of healthy meal in a climate controlled environment, actually reading the paper instead of using it as a weapon to kill insects from crawling on you.  After serving 6 years for the U.S. in some of the nastiest places on this earth I think I have earned the right to piss and #### in a toilet that  has clean water.   So yeah I will call out anyone for not flushing the toilet here in the USA!

and if there's a drought and we're being advised to ration water by doing it? #### that noise?

huh- I just remember putting a brick or two in the tank back then to provide less water in the tank and flush. had completely forgotten abuot that.

why wouldn't the toilets work?

 
No but I piss outside as much as possible. We have a private background and a decent sized rock in amongst some trees that makes the perfect pissing spot.

 
Wait, some of you piss in someone's house and then leave it?  Wtf. 
If they request it, yes.  This is somewhat similar to the wearing shoes in the house thing - depends on the region and their plumbing setup.  Some people just get really pissed if they get woken up by a flushing toilet.

You've been to someone's house and they've requested that you not flush the toilet?  Do they have a weird pee fetish?
