My suggestion would be to point your shit towards the water in the toilet. How far away you can stand is all about rear muscles.

Yo you better make sure you don't have one of those toilets where anything you dump in it lands diretly into the water....

If you do...
I suggest you take some toilet paper and put that into the water first, or else your behind might get wet...

enough with the jokes, fellow hip hopper...

you make sure you point the front to the front, buy a popscreen, and put/screw/bend it so that it's about 10-15 cm (4-6 inches) from the mic. This helps you to keep your distace but will still sound in-your-face.

Good luck

You do know it's a side-address microphone? You "sing" into to grille from the side that's got the MK-319 printed on it, not the side that has the switches. Start about a foot away, and move closer or farther away depending on how it sounds. Stay away from walls - might get unwanted reflections.
