Yeah, that seems to me to be taking a ride on the crazy train. Most people ain't gonna wanna see that...except for the really crazy ones like that guy who immersed himself in the porta-potty tank...

Are you licking the toilet seat? Immediately putting your hands to your mouth while in the toilet stall? Newsflash- you’re just as likely to have issues handling a door handle, phone, keyboard, or some other heavily touched item in the workplace than a toilet seat that presumably only a rear end would touch.

As for the toilet paper covering of the gaps, I worked in a series of offices where this was a thing and it actually got so ridiculous that people were having post-it wars on the mirrors because people would take them down only to find they were put up again. I’m sorry, but does anyone really care to look into a bathroom stall to see what is going on in there? I know I don’t.

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned this, but squat toilets. When you squat like nature intended there’s very little wiping left to do.

The thought of people not throughly cleaning their bums is frightening. I usually take the time of 2 or 3 people. I also block the gap between the stall with tissue paper so no one can see me.
Ugh. Dude.

Just imagine in a lot of the world where they wipe their bums with their hands! Do they keep going until there are no streaks on their hands?

We use wipes, or a shower...we don't do that while out either.

I'm sure 75% of the population walks around with dirty bums.

Prunes or dates to help "it" exit easier.

And let's be honest, folks, people are mentioning OCD or other mental issues here but how many of us honestly try to hold it until we get home, rather than dropping a deuce in a public restroom?
OMG at the ad that came up
