Doing your business in public

[burgundy]

DNG, you sound like one of these maniacs who streams TP down the crack of the stall door because you're afraid someone's gonna peep through and watch you pinch one off. don't you people have more important shit lol to worry about?

like what do you do when you walk into a restroom? do you check for feet to establish which stall is optimal? because if i'm taking a shit in there, that's what's gonna make me think you're a big ole meat magnet.

i shit like 3-4 times a day and i work outside of the home so i got over any of this a long time ago. urinal etiquette i understand and follow but stalls have walls, not rules.

Yeah I just wash my hands and then open the door. You can't protect yourself from everything -- chances are the rail on the stairs/escalator have 100x more nastiness than the doorknob in the bathroom.

true cant protect yourself from everything, im far from being fully germophobic , and i actually dont care if someone sees me pinching a loaf.

was just asking to keep the topic going, and because, almost every single person at this facility where i work grabs a paper towel on the way out the door. seems like the normal thing to do here and not the exception

but then again burg, we all know lawyers are dirty in the first place, so why would we expect different behavior in the restroom had to do it :P

[burgundy]

ideally bathroom doors should not have knobs so this whole nonsense is avoided. but i really think it's a non-issue.

personally, i think everyone should wash after wiping up a deuce, but really, who gets a big glob of shit on their hands while doing so? and even then, 98% of casual non-washers would say "fuck there's shit on my hand, guess i better make an exception and soap that shit off."

i really think some slight amount of contact with germs, while gross to think about, actually promotes health. i bet frequent purell users spend more days sick than those who forget to wash their hands once in a while.

EDIT: just pissed in an open stall in a 2-stall 2-urinal setup because moseying up to the open urinal would have required engaging in heavy petting with the existing urinal occupant. real life is seldom as simple as it is in your little bathroom brainteasers.

I wash my hands at LEAST three times a day and have hand sanitizer on my desk at work.

Fuck you guys, I don't want germs.

I avoid blatant concentrations of piss and shit in public restrooms, and I'll wash up after pooping, but I'm no germ psycho. The immune system needs pratice, especially Burg's and Ramon's since they have AIDS.

I hate shitting in public places, but I'm able to do so if I have to as long as the place is semi clean looking. I'll do a pre emptive flush or two, using the water that splashes on the seat from that to wipe down the seat, then make a layer of toilet paper to buffer between my cheeks and legs and the seat.
After that, I don't care who's doing what in the rest of the bathroom.

I do hate guys who use the urinal immediately next to me if there are other open urinals. I, too, get pee shy if the guy is right next to me. I've gotten better though, I used to clam up if there was another person in the room at all.

[Dolemite]

You ever shit and when the turd hits the water a drop splashes up and directly hits your asshole? I hate that.

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

It's like a piss and shit bidet!

[Tones]

Everyone tries to shit quietly, so if you go in there and push out a huge farty turd as hard as you can, you assert yourself and you get a psychological edge over the other shitters.

Not only that, but it establishes a more relaxed decorum for bathroom etiquette.
