Sorry it's late folks, but there was a technical error. (I didn't know it was up to me to post the question today!)
OK, here it is...
33% of all Americans do this.

No school today yay yay! lol Ok well here's my input so far:
Go to church/temple regularly
Brush their teeth at least twice a day
Get very sick (like, pneumonia or their appendix or maybe something really bad like a disease or something)
Are late to work more than once a week
Ok I'm outta ideas already......

Thanks, I am already 
Ok well I'll think of silly things now:
Clean their bedroom/bathroom regularly
Video tape their kids' every waking moment
Are left-handed
Forget to flush the toilet in a public place? (or maybe at all??? nice thought....  )
Take mental health days (skipping work or school just because you're tired and need a break)

You think only 33% of us lie on our drivers license???
Goodness, you have a lot of faith in humanity!
I put it closer to 75%!
All good guesses, but not the right one! Keep trying!

AAHH!!! Aren't any of them close? Everyone has such good ideas!!!!!!
Don't be jealous! Just think of the future---getting home from work and school and everything! Then you get to relax. Just lock the kids out of your room and take a nice long nap, if you can trust them to behave!

Wow awesome I had a close answer! lol I'm gonna go with Shell's thoguht and work on the toilet one. there's lots for that one!
Ok so 33% of the Americans don't put the toilet down (since we'll say that 50% of the population is male)
Clog the toilet in a public place
Go in the same stall in a restroom
Umm.........throw the toilet paper down after the toilet is already half-flushed? lol

Shell, I love how you post in a million kazillion different areas! Cracks me up!
These are great guesses, and still on the right track.
By the way, I'm sure more than 33% take in reading material (especially the IBSers!), but maybe only 33% admit it!

Funny potty story:
My mother used to work at a local college library. I went to visit one day and had to use the bathroom (SHOCKER! ). When I entered the stall, I notice that there's a sign on the inside of the stall door that says (no, i'm not making this up!)....
"Please do not put your feel on the toilet seat. Thanks.
-The library staff."
Wha- huh?
Naturally, I had to ask for the reasoning for this bizarre note.
The answer? Apparently the college has a lot of Asian students and for some reason (?) they would not sit on the seat or even squat over it.... they would hop up on the seat and then crouch and do their thing!
Needless to say, this created more than a few messes....
Now THAT'S a cultural difference I never knew about!
