Boys should wash their hands too.
I'm still trying to recover from a terrible case of the heebie-jeebies.
I'm walking into the bathroom and the cleaning lady is walking out. She's using a paper towel to hold the door handle. Not a bad idea -- door handles are germ-ridden. But, I thought to myself, "self -- shouldn't the cleaning lady trust her own cleaning abilities?"..I let it go.
Then, as I'm washing my hands post-pee, another lady walks out, turns the tap on (and immediately off) without so much as splashing water on her germ-ridden hands. Of course she has to get out of the bathroom somehow, so she grabs the door handle with her piss-germ-covered hands. The cleaning lady must've known...
*Shudder* Thank gawd I still have some hand sanitizer at my desk.
People need to learn to be less stupid and less disgusting.

I love that she took the time to turn on and off the tap, but getting her hands wet was the breaking point.
She went to all of that trouble just to convince you that she would was her hands, and in so doing completed half of the job.
Why not just finish what you started!?
How about this to think about for germphobs ... it has been claimed that public sinks are dirtier (more germ covered) than toilet bowls.
1. When you go to wash your hands, you (and all before you) grab the taps with your "germed up" hands (if motion sensored then no problems ... but it sounded like that woman had to physically turn them on and off).
2. Next you touch the soap dispenser with your germed up hands to get soap (getting other peoples pre-washed, germed up residue on your hands in the process).
3. Next you wash your hands to get them nice and clean - free of your and others' germs.
4. Next - and during the above process there wasn't a sudden sanitizing process of the wet and germy (from you and everyone else) taps - you grab the taps with your now clean hands to turn them off, thus filthing up your short lived clean hands again.
Howard Hughesish ... maybe ... but its true if you're really worried about the fecal thing. You're only fooling yourself. Shut yourself inside and shun public contact or try one-step sanitizer as well.
Question (in "Dwight's" voice): Who is "anonymous" (is anonymously commenting any better than lurking? Maybe I'm not up on my blog-etiquette)?
Back to the point, I don't think that anyone here is a germophobe...but if people would just stop being so friggin' disgusting, the rest of us wouldn't have to be concerned about shit-covered hands touching the taps and/or door.
Germs are everywhere, but let's not kid ourselves -- washing your hands is just common sense.
Also -- if the toilet is so sanitary, maybe we should just dip our hands in there post-crap.
Yum.
hey ... your own "shitcovered hands" are the reason you wash your hands no? So who is disgusting? I for one make sure that the toiletpaper is the one doing the shit contact ... not my hands ... I wash my hands anyways ... but i also go the extra of turning the taps off with the same paper that i open he door with ...
and anonymous is a person who doesn't bother to take the time to log in with a clever name ...
and i am definately not saying the toilet is sanitary by any stretch ... just using it as a measure against the sink ...
by the way ... computer keyboards are also supposedly more "dirty" in a fecal content sorta way than the toilet bowl ...
Awesome! I love it!?
So what I'm hearing is that not only did the lady not wash her hands, but in attempting the whole faucet charade she ended up with more fecal in the process.
I'm done shaking hands. Done.
Don't you know? Girls don't poop.
I can't type much more -- just washed my hands and am freaking out about having to wash them all over again ('cause washing one's hands is such a production now!).
Also -- I figured I wasn't up on my blog etiquette (only recently learned the term "lurker" -- now I have no excuses). But I do have to say that by no means is "The Stupid One" a clever name. I don't ask fror clever names (or even clever comments -- I mean let's not kid ourselves, this isn't a clever blog -- I can't ask for more than I give).
I just like knowing who's writing (can't help but be curious).
I don't know what you guys are talking about -- it's clean in here.
Wow, seems like you have an anonymous lurker who is not too pleased with you. Can anyone say Jeallllllous? (Said in a high pitched half flamboyant gay males tone and half seven year girls old tone, I think you can picture the Jealllllous tone now, no?)....How come this kind of flaming doesn't happen on my blog? The mayor is upset!
Mayor ... (nice name by the way) ... a lurker is someone who looks but doesn't touch if you know what i mean ... there's nothing lurker about posting three comments in single thread is there?
According to wikipedia there are four types of lukers. which one are you? Smart ass lurker perhaps ;)
In Internet culture, a lurker is a person who reads discussions on a message board, newsgroup, chatroom or other interactive system, but rarely participates.
1 Malevolent lurkers
2 Benign lurkers
3 Constructive lurkers
4 Smart-Ass lurkers
Mayor I'm not the intended point of this topic and i don't want to be ... so let's kill the lurker thing ...
I hear what you're trying to say mayor ... but ...
... there's absolutely nothing "rare" about my "participation" here ... this is the longest thread of this blog by far, in part, because of my participation. As well, I have commented four times on this entire blog ... no big number - I know - ... but that's gotta be as much as, if not more than anyone else.
So if you want to check the wikipedia definition for "rarely", go ahead, but I really doubt that it would cover my level of participation here ... everything else may apply - except for malevolent - I may be benign, consturctive or a smart ass sometimes ... but I betcha so can you ... you just do it with a clever name ...
So, lurker? ... no ... anonymous? ... ya i guess so now that its such a big deal ... now i'm not even going to change it ... even though anyone could be anonymous ... even people with clever names ...
The rare paragraph was right off wikipedia. I didn't really read a lot of your latest post as it seemed to go on and on and on and I don't have a very long attention span.
mayor ... was your response to mine really to just blame wikipedia for your mistake then close your eyes, put your fingers in your ears and say "la, la, la, la, i can't hear you"??
good one ...
ps. hope that wasn't too long for you ...
pps. just joking mayor ... by the way i just checked out your blog ... i like it ...
