    A sidebar: my 3 YO daughter hates going into the men's room for a potty break. Even she recognizes how relatively filthy men's rooms are. She wants to flush before and after.

    LOL, the obligatory vacant floor bathroom. I've got one of those in my building too. Our cleaning people clean the bathrooms every day. That together with the fact that no one ever uses this one make the lining the seat with TP routine unnecessary, although I usually do a quick wipedown just to make sure. I think people are going to be moving in upstairs in a few months, so I'm "enjoying" it while I can.

    I always use the ones with sensors so I don't have to flush.

    I flush by kicking the handle...since I'm a guy, I know pretty well how bad our aim is and if the seat gets pretty splattered then I can imagine that some of the off splash gets up on the handle (of course the seat gets cleans periodically, but I'm sure no one ever wipes down the handle).

    Zip.
    Kick.
    Flush.
    Reposition.
    Wash hands thoroughly.

    Another trick is to flush it with a piece of toilet paper.

    My God this thread is hilarious. :D

    I cant stand the dudes that will put one hand up one the wall while pissing at the urinal. Or worse yet, the dudes who use 2 hands in kind of a "spread 'em" police type position. They must have a damn good aim.

    Another thing I cant stand is walking in a public restroom when someone is dumping. It seems like every time I walk in someone is taking nosiest one ever. They let it all out and then MOAN really really loud. DUDE! I dont want to hear you in there trying to give birth. Why cant you be quiet like a normal person?!?!?!?!?

    hahaha!

    everybody's definition of courtesy flushing is different. i thought it was to get rid of the streaks that sometimes line the side of the bowl when you flush it the first time. i usually flush three times afterwards.

    this thread is bringing back very very bad memories. my first job was at astroworld... cleaning up bathrooms. ARGHHHHH!!!! talk about a "crappy" first job. i remember once threatening to quit when somebody purposely missed the seat (by the way, how can somebody do that?). SPHINCTER CONTROL PEOPLE... SPHINCTER CONTROL!!!!!!!!!!! i told my supervisor i wouldn't clean it up. pretty sick stuff.

    It helps when you're drunk, makes the urinal stay still. ;)

    RM95 - don't ask me why, but sometimes I'll flush in the middle of a piss, usually when I'm drunk.

    Come to think of it, 99.999% of the stupid **** I do occurs when I'm drunk.

    Then don't ****ing use them. There's probably nothing I hate more in this world than having to take a piss, only getting to the toilet or urinal and seeing piss or **** in there.

    The only public place I'll take a **** is in a nice restaurant or in Barnes and Noble. I've had to do it in a department store a couple of times...that wasn't too bad.

    What about the freakin puddle in front of the urinal? (edit - I see mentioned above by RM95). WTF! Everyone has to take a step back not to step in it, further aggravating the situation. Have some control men! :eek:

    How about when you're using the urinal on the end and rather than choosing one of the other 4 open urinals, some dude comes in and uses the one right next to you.

    I too am a kick-flusher. You gotta kick flush, there's no way I'm touching that thing w/ my hands.

    I also hate when dudes use the urinal, shake their thing, zip up and then go through the door like nothing happened. WASH YOUR HANDS PEOPLE!!!

    Yes, yes, a million times yes!!

    We actually had a huge debate over this issue a while back. There are a surprising number of non-hand-washers on this BBS.

    My penis is clean and I know how to piss without getting it all over my hands. Also, I flush with my elbow or foot. It's just as disgusting to touch the knobs on the faucet, IMO.
