    Well if she'd lick the anus I don't see her having any problem with a few dodgy fingers. :>

    firstly - :eek:

    secondly, kinda a good point.

    thirdly - "i don't wanna do that!" (this only applies to avid satc watchers..)

    Well, there's a sign on the back of the cubicle door saying "Please wash your hands. Advice Line: 1890 336677". Suppose I'll have to start wiping my arse when the "Please wipe you arse" sign goes up.

    Ill much? Course i wash my hands after the loo,it only takes two seconds. Remind me never to go to your house if your making a meal..

    I'd always wash hands after a leak and after I've flushed the jax.
    BTW, if a person is healthy, fresh urine is harmless and (I could be wrong on this bit) sterile.

    As a rule, I never wash my hands, ever.

    I am not anal by nature, but this is one thing I am anal about......forgive the pun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    urine is sterile when it leaves your body, so you could argue theres no need to wash your hands even if you do pee on them

    still wash em my self though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 631 ✭✭✭neil_18_


    Ye of course..... Not even just for my own sake, but for the sake of the people im with whos belongings i might touch lol...

    I sometimes wash my hands a few times after going to the bathroom.
    Honestly can't remember the last time I didn't wash my hands after using the toilet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 913 ✭✭✭Ronan Keating


    I don't wash them before I enter the church. I purposely sit beside someone I hate and hope that the priest will let us offer the "sign of peace".

    I did it just a while ago there. God it is great. You know that smell you get when you don't wash them after taking a dump. Sweet devine.

    Scarily, I'm the same, I hate when your in a public bathroom and see someone leave without washing their hands, all i can think about is all they might tough, handles, cups, stair rails etc, actually feel sick at the thought. It only takes a few seconds ffs, and by the way, wshing your hands without using soap is NOT washing your hands. I hate those who dont bother with soap and just barely get their hands wet and think their great. Grrrrr :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Or if you're in a bathroom and there is no soap, really irritating.
    I always think about people smoking to be honest, they go to the toilet and then go smoking.
    So they are basically putting their pissy hands up to their mouth, yuck.

    I think most of us are guilty for not cleansing the paws after unloading some waste? Though, it is a bit nasty when someone drops the kids off at the pool and then proceeds to pick their fingernails with their teeth!?! :(

    I mostly try to use the sink afterwards............mostly. :p
    ==========================================================

    The best way to remember to wash your hands is, after you'v picked up the hospital bug's that are flying around. That will stay with you and I promise you will never go or do anything without washing your hands.

    If you go into a public house and into the loo, you can see the punters who come and go using the toilets and don't even bother to wash their hands.
    they are more interested in checking their appearance than doing the most important thing, Washing their hands! :cool:

    There was a survey carried out here a few years ago, where they tested ice-cream samples from various places. Much of it had traces of sh1t in it thanks to some dirty arse-wiping non hand-washing bastards handling the stuff.

    Next time you're thinking of buying one, take a long sniff of the flake in your 99 before you hand over the money.

    coliform bacteria

    This is why men should wash their hands after being to the toilet; it has nothing to do with urine and how much of it gets into contact with your hands.

    I've said this before: your boxer-shorts region--from belly button to mid-thigh--is crawling with germs known as coliform bacteria. These bacteria originated in your intestine, and some of them are deadly. Remember punji stakes? They were sharpened sticks that the Vietcong concealed point up along trails and daubed with excrement. If you stepped on one you had a good chance of contracting a fatal infection. Similarly, an otherwise not-so-serious gunshot or knife injury could kill you if it perforated the intestine and allowed coliform bacteria to spread around your abdomen.

    But you know this (or at least you ought to). What you may not know is that washing will not make the coliform bacteria go away. They're holed up in the pores of your skin and nothing short of sandblasting--certainly not your morning shower--is going to get them out. Showering merely gets rid of the ones that have strayed onto the surface. The bacteria won't do much harm if they stay put, but when you urinate your fingers come in contact with Mister P. long enough for the coliform bacteria in your pores to hop aboard. Your fingers subsequently touch lots of other infectible items. If you don't wash your hands with soap and water (soap gets rid of the skin oil that the bacteria stick to) . . . hello, Typhoid Mary.

    It now dawns on you: jeez, if merely touching my privates is enough to transmit bacteria, it doesn't matter if I pee or not! Just so. Urine itself is actually fairly sterile. Cecil has read reports of it being used during wartime in poor countries as--I'm not making this up--a sort of battlefield Bactine. (U.S. doctors generally blanch at this.) The lesson to draw from this, however, is not that you can go forth dripping (yuck), but rather that just because you didn't pee on your fingers doesn't mean you can skip washing up.

    To avoid the problem of no soap in bathrooms on nights out I always bring a hotel showergel bottle with liquid soap with me in my bag. started doing this after being pissed off most nights from having no soap. Reading back on this Iv just realised how odd that sounds, sorry:o

    Hmmmm.... didn't deem the thread worthy of my attention as it has been explored before numerous times and has nothing new to offer.

    My excellent diet supports the tactic of known of in military circles as 'fire and forget' where the badge is hovered over the pan and the bung released with none or minimal contact to the hoop, 'nothing but net' is my expression there.

    No need for any wipe there, or hand wash as, well, she's out like a kingfisher from a branch.

    In the odd event of a 'misfire' or' explosion in the chamber' as we call it wiping and washing is needed.

    Indeed I had a 'flock of starlings' experience recently after some Scotch Bonnet laced curry and the 'footprint' was quite wide of the tatgrt area.

    Women ,bless them should always wash and wipe as their flappers can get greased and contaminated when the flow weakens and they usually have to work the tissue, especially if they are a tad 'hanging' in that area.

    So there ya go, and by the way keep the nails short.

    ta ra.

    You'd be inclined to wash them after a poo. The poo might get on your hands and under your nails.

    With a pee it is not necessary for a man to wash his hands. All he does is hold the shaft in place or if he is hardened then he doesn't need to hold it.

    So you wouldn't be washing them after a pee, only after a poo - if necessary.


    WTF!? Who the fcuk gets poo on their hand when having a sh*t?
