do u want to thank him and shake his hand before or after u wash your hands?
 
that thin paper cover is actually several thousand times thicker than your typical herpesvirus, papilloma virus, immunodeficency virus, or hepatitis virus. It is also several hundred times thicker than bacteria that cause gonorrhea, chlamydia, or syphilis. the paper will also prevent bugs like crabs or other mites from running into your crotch.
gotta use the protection people. your immune system can't do anything against these viruses or bugs, and you'd be damn lucky if it nailed these bacteria.
I always say, there ain't no difference in sitting on it or licking it.

I NEVER go CaCa at a public restroom.

Well, the answer is obvious if you're using a bathroom at a public restroom say at a public park or something.

But at work? Where they're cleaned daily (twice at my work)? I'm cool without it.

Definition of @ss gasket.

I recall reading somewhere that a study shows that fecal bacteria can penetrate 7 layers of paper. Not to mention, who the fvck ever heard of catching something from a toilet seat?
 
I do, if for no other reason that piece of mind. You never know what kinds of shlt (literally) may have touched that seat. Not to mention the thought of using a public toilet seat bare-assed that some anonymous nasty dude has used is akin to sharing underwear with a stranger.
