Don't ask me how I know this - it is one of those weird facts I picked up somewhere - but apparently some women "hover" - thus leading to pee where it shouldn't be. Can't explain the poop.
Also, sometimes when the toilet flushes water spray ends up on the seat. It's not pee, but looks like it. I hate that. I hate public restrooms, period. And I hate scary U.K. restrooms even worse.

what do you mean "hover?" like to squat? because unless there are toilet seat covers (which get laid down two at a time for me and can make or break a bathroom visit), it will be a cold day in hayle before my azz hits the porcelain (well, the plastic).

other PB deal-breakers: foul odor (clearly) cold water in the faucet, hand dryers vs. paper towels, stall doors that dont shut all the way, and most of all, a WET FLOOR!

Hell, I've hovered before when a bathroom seems particularly disturbing, but I didn't pee on the wall...

Do you mean the ones where you pay and then go inside a giant concrete thing?

I too have refused to have skin hit the seat when it was disgusting - but I didn't, um, leave a mess.
The scary U.K. bathrooms are the circa 1950 public ones. Yikes! And what is with the wax paper for toilet paper? The first time I pulled out a square of waxed paper from the toilet paper dispenser I was flumoxed. I want to wipe, not wrap a sandwich! My U.K. friend says that's better than the John Wayne paper - rough as hell and doesn't take crap off anyone!

This reminds me of when I was little, my Mom would send my Grandparents back in Germany care packages, and she always padded the boxes with rolls of toilet paper and paper towels since the TP that was available (and affordable) was, as you said, John Wayne paper.

As for all public restrooms, does anyone else use a papertowel or a bit of TP to help open the door? I've heard that the doors are actually dirtier than the toilets themselves (from all those wonderful people who don't wash when they are done).

Also baffling, though I didn't deal with this one personally. Pooping on the floor next to the toilet. Again, how do you miss. Are you straddling the seat with one foot in the bowl? Are you somehow facing the wrong direction completely? I have no idea. I know you were close, but close only counts in horseshoes and handgrenades... definitely not defecation.

Also, if you poop on the floor... do the world a favor and don't make the minimum wage worker clean it up. I don't care how you clean it up, just do it and then wash your hands.. a lot. Luckily this happened at a zoo where they just so happen to have plenty of shovels designated for that sort of purpose. But still... ewwwww.


I almost lost my life to the raisin that got stuck in my throat...on account of laughing at the bolded statement.

I am all about the 'hover'. Sometimes I forget that my bathroom at home is MY bathroom at MY home that I clean and I hover there too. Lol. However, I hover with great skill. No sprinkle when I tinkle, or I'll be neat and wipe the seat.

When I first read the title, I thought it was going to be a survey of whether you like your TP to hang over or under the roll....

Me, too. I'm an underling m'self.

Anyway, I always squat and if, for any reason at all I accidentally touch something, I go into convulsions until I can get to a shower. I also have no clue how poop ends up on the floor, but it happens all the time where I work. :mad:

I'd just like to say that anytime I can make people laugh loud enough that others think they're crazy, and/or nearly choke to death, it's a good thread. That goes x2 when it's a poop thread.

I thought it was the end for this thread but then...
 
Today, I HAD to use the public restroom, i take a two hour public transportation ride home,:mad: so i had no other choice. So of course the first thing i look for is some paper in the holder, none was there. (This is a single stall bathroom.) I didnt have to look far, the maintence people put a nice roll of domestic tissue (the kind you use in your private home), on a make shift toilet paper holder. And should you run out of that, there were two other random rolls, sitting on the diaper changing station. :eek:This made me feel extremely uncomfortable. thinking about all the people before me, grabbing and feeling all up on the toilet paper before i got the chance too. what a day!:)

my mom taught us early on if there were no disposable seat covers, you do it yourself with some toilet paper...lots of it.

well it was the first thing i taught my daughter when she was potty training. one day she hopped up, said "mama i gotta pee!" and ran off to our bathroom. i sat listening for a flush and some handwashing, but never heard anything. i got up, and she was standing in the bathroom, panties around her ankles, lining our toilet seat with paper! between laughing and crying i asked her what she was doing, and she said "you told me not to sit on the nasty toilet seats!"

thats my girl *sniff! :rolleyes:
