It grosses me out when I see people use a john, flush a john, and then leave without washing their hands. Then they go about their business using ink pens, stationary phones, cel phones and the like...EEEEEEEEWWWWW!!!!!

Wow that's disgusting the bit I like with the article is that they done the study in the UK but somehow with no evidence say the same if not worse in the US.



The current study was conducted in Brits, but there's not much reason to think Americans are any more hygienic


Don't know what most of you are going to think about that...

Don't people know when they have poop on their hands... Yuk

Sometimes you gotta use your cellphone when there's no toilet paper.

Peace

This is funny because everything touched by humans would have fecal matter on it. I dont get why people are so squimish because if you cant see it; why does it matter?
Ive never worried about germs and i very rarely get sick, when i do it doesnt last long either.

Just remember, every food storage or factory in the world is infested with creepy crawlies. Germs get added in every process.. Its just life

If you did a little research you will find out that most of the place's in the house is covered in Fecal Matter,
If you smell a fart, thats fecal matter going up you nose.
Bathrooms are covered in it, everytime you flush it goes everywhere doesn't matter if the lid is up or down.
So if you have a toothbrush in a glass next to your sink guess what? its covered in Fecal Matter.
From time began we have been covered in # and no matter how much we wash we will still be covered in #

Doesnt matter anyhow we all speak # a lot of the time LOL

That must mean that a sixth of everything is covered in pooh!...


Worst thing is, it's done mostly by adults...

In the article, they say 95% of people claim to wash their hands, but they don't mention people who "spread" it voluntarily. How many times will you see pee on the cover, or floating trunks?

I used to work with a guy like that. I called him on the intercom in front of everybody about that... He stopped.


I'm glad I never use cell phones!

I've always been torn on washing my hands in a public bathroom after going #1 at least.
I know where my hands have been and where my junk has been. I don't pee on myself. And I don't know what gorilla type just got done making a boom-boom after burritomania, wiped himself with the flimsy tp found in most public johns, and turned those knobs on the sink. And turned the soap dispenser into a stink dispenser.

I use care when opening and closing that door as well. Minimal contact only!

I think the point is to wash our hands after the "John" visit and I was trying to inform those who don't know the reality of the issue..

I think the grossest, dirtiest things next to doorknobs are computer mouses. Cellphones would be further down list personally speaking.

I still dont get it why people have the need to bust out the cell phone having conversations while sitting in the darn toilet. I always leave mine in my purse, go do what i gotta do, then wash hands, leave. No contact with phone whatsoever!

It really annoys me when im at the mall or something and you hear women yapping on the phone when using bathroom. Seriously, it can wait ! Another thing is using toilet seat covers, you dont know what kind of butt sat down before you.. Ewww !!! lol

I always use the "handicap" open button when leaving the restroom. I use my hip or side to activate it.

My father works in a casino, cleaning up. Every night there is at least one person who craps themselves while sitting at a slot machine, then sits there and continues to play. There there are those who purposely miss the toilet, or smear it on the walls. Presumably they are angry at having lost their money. If poopy cellphones bother you, stay out of casinos!

I'm sure its a lot higher than that, every time you go into the rest/bathroom you are basically being bombarded by poop crystals.
