If Im at work though, I'll take the paper towel back to my office and throw it in the trash. But at a public place, I am not going to carry around a paper towel until I find the nearest trash can.

Why do I do it? Becuase many people dont wash their hands in the bathroom. Will I catch anything?...No. Does it matter?...no. I dont want my hands touching the same things that someone else's hand touch, especially after they've held their johnson or taken a crap.

And why is it any of your business? I really doubt that you "told that guy to pick it up". If that really happened, Im positive you would face some serious confrontation.

I told that guy exactly what I said. He picked it up. It's my business because I have to walk through the damn mess. Maybe it's ok in a Denny's you frequent to have a trash bin outside the door, but in middle tier and up restuarants they don't have a place outside the restrooms. Plus most people then have water all over the freaking place when the trash can is not right at the sink anyway.

The funny part is the restroom door is not the only other thing those guys have touched.

Not everyone has a tiny dick that can be handled just by their fingertips.

So, krunchy and other paper towel in the floor people... if the paper towel dispenser requires cranking a lever, do you crank the lever before washing your hands in fear of getting hand cranking lever germs on your hands? I have a coworker who does this, but I have never seen anyone else do it.

I do it.

I also work in a hosptial and have become bordeline OCD about washing my hands.

Tell you what, you stop bashing those of us who happen to think that not washing your hands is disgusting and I'll stop calling you people filthy pigs. 😛

Nothing personal. 😉

Didn't mean to bash you, though I can see where "paper towel people are f'ing ridiculous" could be taking that. I meant to bash the moronic practice of opening a bathroom door with a paper towel. I'm sure you're perfectly normal in every other right.

:thumbsup:😉

BTW-I usually do use the paper towel that I dried my hands with to open the bathroom door here at work and I definitely do this in public restrooms (which are usually pretty filthy and disgusting places). I also teach my son to always wash his hands after using the restroom, especially public restrooms.

Public bathrooms are filthy places. Frequently there is urine on the floor and they are just nasty. The door is certainly no exception.

I don't consider myself a germophobe though. I shower at work when I ride my bike in and other people use that shower too. Hell, we had a community bar of soap in there for a while but I've since been keeping my own soap because I am kind of particular about soap (I don't like those overly scented ones).

🙂 :thumbsup:


I know that public restrooms can be particularly nasty, but I just don't see the special treatment of a restroom door handle as logical. I don't consider myself a filthy pig, even though we don't have a shower at work for when I ride my bike. I usually just towel off my torso in the restroom and reapply deodorant.

I think regular washing of the hands is important to prevent germ accumulation and to purge the nastiness you get on your hands. I personally don't see that it's necessary because you just went #1, but still do the majority of the time simple because I'm in such close proximity to a sink and it's convenient to do so.

I understand the concern to not be covered in shit, but I just don't think keeping a paper towel between your hand and the door of a restroom is a particularly effective way to do it. You are encountering those same germs in a thousand different ways inside the restroom as well as millions of others outside. The paper towel to the doorknob seems to be irrelevant.

Are you saying you'd kick someones ass if they told you pick your litter up? Cause I really doubt you would.

Oh come on. You know the average Atoter would have to defend his/her honor in front of their supermodel girlfriend while dining out at Lawry's before hopping into their Ferrari. There's just no other way.

lol, you guys really like to assume. Im not a confrontational person. If someone told me to pick up a paper towel, I would be a little pissed; honestly, I'd give this 🙂roll🙂 look, and leave.

But IM sure there are people out there who would not be as peaceful about it as I would be.

1 in 3 males don't wash their hands before leaving the bathroom. so, whenever you wash your hands and you use the door handle to open it, you might as well have not washed your hands at all. when you touch a bathroom door handle, you're pretty much shaking hands with almost everyone's dick and/or butthole who's been in there.

so, the most sanitary way and best way to avoid catching something is to use a paper towel to open the door.

1 in 3 probably don't urinate or defecate on their hands.

they hold their dick to pee and they wipe their ass with thin, cheap toilet paper which rips pretty easily. you don't know if someone accidentally poked a hole in the paper or if they accidentally splattered on their hand or whatnot.

After wiping my ass over 27,000 times and urinating at least twice that amount, I, like most people I'd imagine, have mastered the art of both releasing bodily wastes and the associated cleanup.

Is that honestly your reason for not washing your hands? Dirty.

I don't recall saying I don't wash my hands. I was replying to the comment that implies I get fecal matter on my hands when I wipe and that somehow I am unable to prevent keeping my hand out of my urine stream.

[dennilfloss]

I do this in public places. What's the point of washing your hands then touching a dirty knob before going back to eat? Of course, I throw the paper towel in the garbage while holding the door open with my foot. No point being a litterbug either.

Dude, your so corny. Just give it a rest, the main point is your pretty much retarded if you piss/shit on your hands and it gets on the doorknob and don't wash. If the door is wet or sticky you should be concerned, and adjust for dirty environments. That aside why are you trying to be an internet tough guy?

 

[ShockwaveVT]

A Maryland man and a ATOT man are at the urinal. They finish and zip up. The Maryland man proceeds to the sink to wash his hands, and grabs a paper towel to use on the door handle while the ATOT man immediately makes for the exit.

The Maryland man says, "Back in Maryland they teach us to wash our hands after we urinate."

The ATOT man replies, "On ATOT they teach us not to piss on our hands."

Why would you assume that everyone is as fastidious as you are when they use the restroom? 😕

Do you piss on the floor in the mens room? Someone does because I've seen urine on the floor around the toilets even here where I work and I see it all the time at public restrooms.

Just because the door handle isn't wet or sticky doesn't mean it isn't dirty. Think for a minute about all the nasty ass people you work with. More than half of them dont' wash after doing their business. Do you really want to be touching somthing they have had their hands on?

I'm not being a tough guy. I'm just pointing out that because you can handle your junk" with your fingertips doesn't mean the rest of us can. Hell my wife has to use 2 hands on mine. 🙂

Alright, let me be more clear. I would do it if I saw those conditions, but I was under the impression that for everyone who uses the paper towel on the door handle, they do it in every restroom. I feel no need to use a papertowel when I'm at work because I see no slobbenly obvious messes around. If theres a buncha piss and shit on the floor, then ok. But I did say "adjust for dirty environments".
