Now the rest of the story. It is a crime (fine only last time I heard it) in Singapore to not flush a public toilet. Move. ;)

how the hell do you whip something with a leaf? and what would there be to whip?

I hate it when people don't wash their hands after wiping their bum, and then knead bread.

I don't understand this type of thinking.

Why flush it before it's full? Do you empty your trashcan the second you throw something in it? I generally only fill up the toilet once a month, sometimes twice. 18 flushes a year saves a ton of water vs you guys that flush 5 times a day or around 1800 times a year.
My sarcasm meter is being repaired.
What you say sounds nasty, but my cousins on the farm do exactly this. Its expensive to get water pumped out to them.
They only flush when its full.

Wait...what?

I can understand over urine...fill up the bowl and flush (which I would still never do...just nasty...) but even with feces? C'mon now...

What's the problem with touching the handle? Contracting AIDS?
Just wash your hands afterwards

You realize, you are picking up just as many viruses and bacteria by touching the door handle on the way in and out?

The office complex that I work in has only two county department in it. I'm the only male in my entire department. There are two full-time males in the other department, and one full-time maintenance guy. There are two men's rooms in the facility, and both of them have 2 stalls and two urinals -- one is in a "secure" staff-only area, and the other is a public restroom, off of the main lobby. Evem though my office is right beside the staff men's room, I walk to the other end of the building and use the public one, because one or both of the two guys that work in the other department has such horrible bathroom habits that it's just repulsive. I'm not sure that he/they have *ever* heard of flushing a toilet *or* washing hands. The custodians clean all of the restrooms in the building each night, and they've actually commented to me that they don't blame me for avoiding it. They also mention that they haven't had to refill the soap dispenser in months... apparently it's never used in that restroom. Seriously, if those guys were kids, their parents would be taking them to doctors to make sure that they were mentally functionally properly.

... and people wonder why I hate shared restrooms so much.
