Facts:

One of the more popular toilet myths suggests that when toilets flush in the northern hemisphere, the water flows clockwise in the bowl while toilets in the southern hemisphere distribute counter-clockwise, allegedly due to the Coriolis Effect triggered by the rotation of the Earth. This sounds interesting, but it is not true. In fact, toilets flush the instructions they do solely because of the producer's style. The Coriolis Effect is a real force but it does not effect toilets or sinks.
Inning accordance with the World Toilet Organization, the average individual uses the toilet six to 8 times a day or 2,500 times per year. That equates to 3 years of someone's life spent using the toilet.
