Am I the only who doesnt touch ANYTHING in a...
I've aquired a pretty good high kick over the years to flush down the urinals. Down low on the toilets too.
My gf always wonders why I take so long in the bathroom sometimes. It's because I need to get out of there free of bacteria and germs!
This one restaurant we eat at has the freaking paper towels to dry your hands OUTSIDE the bathroom door. No, I didn't realize this at first. So after I took myself a pissand wash my hands, I then realize.. oh shit no paper! I read the little sign saying the paper towels are outside. Oh lord, how the hell am I gonna open the door now?? Only choice is to rip off some pieces of toilet paper to open the door with. And everyone knows how cheap ass toilet paper does not go well when your hands are soakin wet. So I get enough to open the door and prop the door open with my foot while I'm trying to get the toilet paper that's stuck to my hands off. It was exhausting...
I always wipe down the seats real good before a #2. And I then follow up with a few good layers of TP for added protection. But the thickness I lay down varies depending on how bad I need to go. Sometimes it's tough to get one layer down!
On a side note, does anyone hate automatic toilets? Especially in airports... sometimes the slightest movement will cause the toilet to send water swooshing around your ass. It sure makes taking a crap an agonizing experience when it should be a time of reflection and relief.

This thread is hilarious!
Seriously, to those that are obsessive about cleaning up after this, you need to get over it. Why? Because fecal spray from a urinal or toilet travels in a roughly 20ft radius. In most bathrooms, that means that anything and everything in the bathroom is covered in fecal spray..... INCLUDING THE TOILET PAPER AND PAPER TOWELS. It's all germ ridden, people. What makes you think that everything is dirty but the towels? That's completely illogical.
I wash my hands. I don't use a napkin/towel to open doors or turn taps on/off. Some of the people that get the most ill are those that are anal about keeping "clean". Your body can't build up strong resistance to germs you never let it encounter... I'm not advocating swimming in fecal matter or anything, but I stand by my point. Similar to vaccination, I guess - exposing yourself to small amounts of germs is, in many cases, better than no exposure at all (followed by a chance exposure and sickness).

I've been touching the door handle and tap for many a year in the bathroom and I have never come down with any infection because of it yet !!

And PEOPLE! You HAVE to use AT LEAST water or some form of wet-wadded Toilet Paper to clean yourselves after a #2.
I cant believe people would go out into the world with an itchy crack! (ass-crack)
I am making it a point. Those of you who don't use wet TP... TRY IT! just ONCE! See the difference

Thanks for making me MORE paranoid, but where did you get this little fact?

I got that little fact from an obscure little report my Dad read. Gross, huh?
Still, just think about it - it makes sense. Urine, especially, is going to travel quite a ways. Spray from the urinals, water slopping out, etc, etc - it's going to go everywhere in liquid form, much less in droplets that are near invisible individually.
Using a water-soaked piece of toilet paper is even more unsanitary than using it dry. Why? Because water, as a medium, can transfer germs far better than air in this case. You're wiping yourself with a soaked piece of filthy toilet paper (remember - fecal spray) and allowing the water to build up on your ass. You're wiping with something wet, which does potentially clean better than something dry, but that very action allows the fecal matter to leech through the water and back onto you. You're actually just transferring the fecal matter around on your ass!
Are you even MORE paranoid yet?
Plus, if you put too much water, some bits of toilet paper can slough off and get stuck in the hair. There's also the risk of fingers being exposed to water backwash (from the soaked toilet paper) during wiping.
