When I was really small I thought that unless you put ya fingers in ya ears when you flushed, you'd be sucked down b/c the toilet would know you were listening. So I used to flush with my elbow, keep my fingers in my ears and then run as far away from the loo as poss until the flushing stopped so i could wash my hands.
