Public toilets

Post by Montcalm »

[Rant mode on]Why does the PTs door open on the inside?
You push them to get in,but when you finish your business you wash your hands,and you end-up grabing the knob or handle to go out,right after hundreds of pigs went out without washing their fucking hands,wich nullifies what you did.
and why don`t they install the damn door to open from the outside?
we can push it with our feet to go out. :roll:[Rant mode off]

They must have weird bathrooms in Canada. I've never encountered a public bathroom that uses a doorknob to exit. It's always push to open (or the ever popular no-door-you-just-walk-behind-a-wall bathrooms).

That's why you use a piece of ass tissue as a buffer against TEH EVAL GERMZ

Ugh, I hate having to use a PT. Urinals are ok since all you have to do is park right next to it, open the Primary Weapons Bay, extend the Cannon, aim, and fire. Pooping is totally another story. Please for the love of Goddess take the time to master the 'Hover Technique'!!!


Hover Technique: Squatting ('putting it into hover' if you will) over the Loo with a couple inches' separation from your ass (and jet blast) and the toilet bowl. Then you set up said toilet 'The Bomb'. :teeth: Caveat: This requires strong thigh muscles to work properly, so get crackin' on those leg lifts!! Bonus: Provides some protection against backsplatter when you accidentally hit the toilet with somewhat excessive firepower (don't ask!) ;)

What bugs me are those stalls with doors that don't work. I once used one where the latch that locked the door was an inch out of alignment with the handle it attaches to. It kept swinging open. And then, the ones with no toilet paper bug me. I understand why they run out, and I'm sure they can't help it, but it does get kind of annoying, especially when you just made a huge turd and need to wipe. In that case, the only thing that can help is if a stall beside you has the toilet paper from the dispenser hanging down to the floor.

Don't fucking hover over the seat. Just wipe it off with a strip of toilet paper and sit your ass down.

Honestly, there is nothing you can't catch from sitting on a public toilet seat that you can't catch through normal everyday human contact...

Are there any documented cases of people contracting those diseases from public toilet seats?

Again, use the paper towel. It's not too hard. Or you can do what I do and wash your hands, touch the knob with your hand, and finish your meal.

The worst public toilets i have ever seen are the ones at my school. They are covered in crap and filled to the brim with paper, pencils and other shit






























And the stalls don't have doors.

Unless someone with cholera, ebola and campylobacter has just done explosive diarrhoea all over the seat, cubicle walls and door and ceiling and you start rolling in the stuff, you'll be perfectly okay.

Of course it is better to use the bog roll and make a padded seat and use the paper to open the door too or lower the seat, that's common sense. In fact, in nations where standard sitting toilets don't exist they have to squat and utilise muscles that aren't normally stressed that much giving them better leg power.

It is possible to get crabs from a toilet seat. If you happen to pick up a recently fertilised female. Possible, but only just. :wink:

that´s because there´s might be traffic outside. there may be people walking past that door, who don´t pay attention to what happens to that door. whereas from the inside people who are close to that door usually want to leave and because of that activly see the door in order to grab the knob. if the door swung outwards it might hit people walking past the door who are not paying attention to that door.

I've never heard going to the loo described so well, in Australia we have the push doors with no knobs 99 times out of 100.

High School put me off ever using a public loo. Our school toilets where open air, half the roof had caved in, the shitters had no locks, they didn't flush and there was no soap or bog roll. If i needed to go i went home to do it or if i had the shits i used the teachers loo.

I saw an ad for a toilet today which cleans your crack with water jets, and then dries it. Would you use it? No more toilet paper.

I don't know. The idea of getting an enema from jets of water I just took a shite in doesn't rate high on my "to do" list.
