I usually just lick my hands clean. There are bacteria fighting enzymes in your saliva.
I always use the towel to open the door. Never understood why people wash their hands then freeely touch the exit door handle to leave. Don't they know a good number of people don't wash their hands and they touch that same exact door.

Kerbey Lane has a metal handle-like outcrop on the door near the floor that fits the toe of one's shoe nicely.
So I open the door with my hand using that.
Nope. Paper towels.
WTF is up with people who sprinkle water on their hands after pissing without soap? Don't even bother.
there was a thread like this a year or two ago, and timvp chimed in about the loss of manliness in the world today... everybody afraid of some germs.
I don't touch anything in a public restroom, except the door handle on the way out... and then I only use one finger to open it. Sorry timvp.
I never "piss with soap"
Easy brah, don't piss on your hands.
It's just a door handle, I open it as long as it ain't got on it. It's bad enough we breathe in lots of fecal matter throughout the day anyway, what is a door or two? There's germs everywhere.
this. you're covered in bacteria already.
Y'all seen visible on door handles? That's terrible.
Seriously, there's no way to know from your naked eye if a door handle has traces of or not. And not all germs are created equally, you're more likely to pick up a virus that will give you say, the stomach flu as opposed to your desk. Which is why I always laugh when radio shows tell you that "there's more germ on your desk than on a public toilet seat!"
I'm not really a germophobe, but I've around hospitals and research laboratories long enough to know how easy it is to get sick from touching a handle then grabbing a snack. It's just standard procedure for me to make sure my hands are always clean. I have the same reservations about coughing/sneezing into your hands rather than your sleeve.
I don't bother washing my hands after I piss unless I get piss on my hands. But really, how often does one get piss on their hands without trying? I don't wash my hands 10 times a day, I don't use ass-gaskets (I'll wipe a seat down if I have to), I don't cringe at the sight of a door handle. And guess what? I don't get sick. The last time I was sick with anything other than a hangover was over 5 years ago.
On the other hand, most people I know who bathe in Purell, shower more than once a day and wash their hands anytime they touch anything seem to get sick all the time.
A better question is, who turns off the water in the (non-automatic) sink with their bare hands?
The two highest concentrations of bacteria in a restroom (outside of the toilet bowls) are on the sink handles and the door handle.
Dry your hands, then use the towel to turn off the water and open the door.
That's what I do. I open the door, hold it open with my foot and toss the paper towel in the trash before walking out. I'm sorry, but I have no interest in walking out of a public bathroom with foreign -n-ass residue on my hands.
poo...
which finger do you usually use?
I just a use the paper towel with which I dry the hands which I have just washed with water and soap after completing the business which I entered the bathroom to attend to.
Yep! Exactly what I do.
use the paper towel for sure - and to turn off the water
Let's just say you don't take chances if I see ANY sort of off-color smudge on a door handle. It's rare, but has happened.
I think I saw some TV special that said the water in your Dentist office chair wasn't as clean as the water in the Dentist office bathroom toiler. Just saying...
I understand your position, but I can't be asked to do all that scrub rinse scrub rinse dry towel open door despose of towel bull when I'm up in da club.
Hospital workers have the same problem, that's why you see these all over the place now:I understand your position, but I can't be asked to do all that scrub rinse scrub rinse dry towel open door despose of towel bull when I'm up in da club.
I always use a paper towel to open the door.
If the bathroom I go to is too stupid not to put the trash can by the door in reach of where i can throw it into the garbage after doing so I'll just throw the paper towel I used to open it on the floor next to the door so they'll learn.
I've seen those dispensers around san antonio college, they're nice though some bags pull their hands away and let it drip onto the floor.
I try to do that all the time, but there are some that throw you off with the blow dryers.
I really wonder what makes people incapable of flushing the toilet and washing their hands.
Haha I actually went to a restroom one day and it was horrible no one would ever flush the urinal so they finally printed out pieces of paper with bold font saying "PLEASE FLUSH, THANK YOU!" and put them on the wall above the urinals.
and the next day someone had ripped them down and it was foul as ever.
I'm pretty neurotic when it comes to public restrooms and avoid them as much as possible. If I find myself in an emergency and must use one, I try to touch as few things as possible, and I don't wash my hands cuz the sinks/faucets gross me out. I keep wet wipes in my purse and car so I just use those.
