Almost dropped my brush into the toilet!

No, because I shave over the sink, not in the toilet, but everyone's technique is different. 
Were you trying to save time by lathering while 'engaged'?
Cellphones and pagers I have. Shaving stuff not yet.
Well, someone has to say it:
"Well, that was a :9898:y thing to have happen."

I keep toilet seats closed unless they're in use. 
That is not a problem I have had.
Now, I have had my wallet almost fall into a public toilet, and that was pretty frightening.

Helpful hints while shaving:
#1-lock the bathroom door! A wife/girlfriend/child barging into the bathroom whilst you are in the midst of a shave is problematic.
#2-close the toilet lid! You now know why. Plus your wife/girlfriend/whomever will think you're a gentleman for not leaving the seat up!

That would be a good excuse to get a new brush
Car keys, yes. Shaving brush, no.

But I have to say that this has almost happened to me. My 3yo nephew thought it would be fun to play with my brushes
. My bathroom now has a child proof handle. What they didn't say is they are also 24 yo proof. Those things are damn hard to open at 5am when you're half awake 
Super sized scuttle, when you are finished just flush away the excess lather.
Slippery buggers when covered in soap, eh? I worried about dropping a brush in the drink about the time I got my first brush, so I've left the turlet lid down ever since.

My shaving stuff is kept on a shelf over the toilet, but fortunately keeping the lid down was engrained in me from an early age.
But no one ever told me not to clip my toenails whilst sitting on the throne, so I've lost a few clippers...

Lost an Omega 49 that way. Right at the end of cleaning, so it's not like I have a slippery handle to blame. Looks like it was just a gateway to my BBSBAD. I still don't shave with the lid down.

Good advice and my bathroom the sinks are no where near the toliet.
A friend of mine at work dropped a work cell phone in the toilet once. He had to man up and grab it out. Put it on the supervisors desk still leaking watered down pee out of it. It was not a good day for him... Yes he still works with me.
I have not lost any shaving tools to the throne. I keep the lid down...

Like Ed Norton used to say - Nothin' a little soap and water won't fix.
It's the idea, not the actual level of cleanliness.
Doubt it?
