The coriolis effect describes the earth spinning on its axis. This is best explained using a military example. A sniper must take the coriolis effect into account when making long shots because as the bullet travels through the air, the earth spins beneath it leaving everything not in contact with the earth in the same spot it was in; making it seem like it curved slightly. Compensation for this is incredibly complicated.
The Coriolis Effect only affects large bodies of water, for example, hurricanes are diverted from the equator because of the Coriolis Effect. The Coriolis effect would not affect a toilet enough to overcome the design of the fixture. The rim holes would start the swirling. Please read the Snopes page that explains this in greater detail.

The Gulf Stream (and extension of the North Atlantic Drift) is a current that begins in the Gulf of Mexico. It carries warm water across the Atlantic ocean to the coast of the UK and Ireland. The UK is on similar latitudes to that of Canada and so should have a similar climate however the Gulf Stream keeps the UK (and parts of Florida) a few degrees warmer than it would be without this current meaning winters are much milder.
A current in the Atlantic Ocean that brings water from the equator to the Artic Circle. It flows out of the Gulf of Mexico (hence its name), follows the east coast of the US, then turns northeast across the North Atlantic. It forms the North Atlantic Drift north of the Azores and continues to Europe.
In the Northern Hemisphere, hurricanes spin counterclockwise due to the Coriolis effect. In the Southern Hemisphere, hurricanes spin clockwise for the same reason.
The Gulf Stream comes from the Gulf of Mexico, not the US. It makes the weather of Western Europe significantly warmer. Most of Europe is about 15 F warmer than areas of the same latitude.
It mainly comes in along the south coast of Ireland, but does effect parts of the west coast. The overall effects of the Gulf Stream keeps Ireland's weather milder than countries on the same latitude.
yes
It gives all of Ireland, including Clifden, a milder climate than parts of the world at the same latitude.

Humidity has the smallest impact on winds. While humidity does play a role in the formation of clouds and precipitation, it does not directly influence wind patterns to the same extent as pressure gradient forces or the Coriolis effect.
The Gulf Stream brings warm weather to Europe. Europe is about 15˚F+ warmer than areas of the same latitude.

The gulf stream warms Western Europe. London, England, for example, is on the same latitude as Canada. However, it seldom snows in London, while Canada is snowbound every winter. The Gulf Stream pumps warm water from the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean all the way to the English and Irish coast, giving it a somewhat warmer climate.
