Call me what you will, but I have a few things to say:
Knowing that most people dont wash their hands after clenching their genitals, or the like, in the bathroom:
1) Why do people touch the door handle when leaving the bathroom without using a napkin to open the door?
2) Why dont people realize there are a lot of diseases out there that can be transferred thru touch easily?
3) Why dont guys at the urinal wipe their piss with a napkin? Knowing that it drips into their underpants and the like. IE: shaking it DOES NOT work
4) AND Why dont people use AT LEAST water when using a stall and doing #2 to wipe themselves clean!? (Simply taking a plastic cup filled with water works wonders!)
5) Finally, why dont people wash their hands <= thats the simplest to answer... but Im really looking to hear about #'s 1 thru 4

I thought of this after reading the pet peeves post... because this one is mine!
Goodluck to all those bathroom goers who scratch their eyes (viral infections tend to go thru the eyes also), or touch their own food... after not being properly sanitized.

well .... being in a public bathroom where it's likely that someone is going number 2 or has just completed one, you're probably also inhaling poop molecules in the air, which then probably embed themselves in your lung.

I've been using poop and pee covered hands my entire life without problems, no need to change now and risk jinxing myself. Plus it makes it funnier when you shake someone's hand, like little do they know that my hand is covered in feces...

Bah, I never touch the door or faucet handles without a towel. Simply gross!

Wiping my azz after a #2 with water...is a bit much I think. I do use baby wipes at home when I have them. I hear a lot of folks do this also.

At my last company, my friend and I had a list of guys we knew didn't wash their hands after using the restroom. The guys who did a #2 and just walked out were the worst ones to deal with. Many times I've had meetings with these folks and IF I had no choice but to shake their hands, I would touch NOTHING until they left...then I'd go to the restroom to wash my hands. I even have a Purell bottle on my desk for when I can't get to the restroom (mainly for the #1 guys, the #2 guys I will do whatever it takes to get to the bathroom). My infamous line after shaking the hand of a "tainted one": "No, I got it all in my head. I'll write it down when I get back to my desk."
