Support NeoGAF

[Prez]

Wouldn't be worried about that more than people who do wash their hands, then grab the door handle which never gets cleaned at most places.

 

[LordAzrael]

The overlyclean neatfreaks come out in droves for this witchhunt. Are you suggesting we need the Toilet Safety Administration from South Park to check our assholes and make sure we wash our hands? Bizarre.

 

[Mechanized]

You know that when you flush a toilet a cloud of feces particles are launched into the air right? So unless you sprint out of the bathroom/stall the second you flush you should probably change your clothes too.

Yet again - open the door with a paper towel, toss it on your way out.

 

[Ryaaan14]

how do you know he was taking a shit? did you listen?

His hands were brown obv

 

[Tragicomedy]

Surprise, surprise. People aren't washing their hands after they've taken a huge shit.

It's like 70% of the world population, me included and I am sure over half of GAF, too.

I didn't shit all over my hands. Poop particles are already all around you, there is no resisting.

I only wash my hands after public shits and only due to social pressure. I don't mind walking around with shit hands.

I just took a shit at my house and didn't wash my hands. Now these words have fecal matter ALL over them, OP. Mmmmmmm.

But I do wash my hands after public shits.

Yep. And I often fake it in public if I know no one is actually close enough to see. I just turn the water on and splash it around for a little bit with a single finger then grab a towel or use the drier.

Everybody should just calm down. Let those who want to wash their hands, let them. Those who wish to stroll free from such unnecessary details can as well.

Y'all have some very high horses. I'm fine, I'll just keep on keeping on. And shaking hands.

Did i get shit on my hands? No, then no need to wash. My immune system is badass, it's the handwashers that get sick all the time from lack of exposure to contagions. I welcome trace amounts of new diseases for i shall defeat it in singles combat, and become that much more powerful.

You are all disgusting people, who deserve to be shamed on this forum.

 

[velociraptor]

ITT I imagine a bunch of lazy, slob gaming nerds sitting around with cheeto beards and being too lazy to wash their hands after taking shits. They also have the audacity to tell others how they are right because of stupid ass reasons like "immune system" and "don't overclean". How is you not washing your hands going to help improve your own immune system? IT ALREADY CAME OUT OF YOUR BODY.


There is a difference between a germaphobe and someone who doesn't want to come into contact with smelly, disgusting shit. Are you guys for real?

In all honesty, the real reason is you guys are a bunch of man-babies who are too lazy to wash them.

Man am I disgusted right now.

Well said.

Their rooms probably look akin to a pig's den.

 

[Prez]

Yet again - open the door with a paper towel, toss it on your way out.

That's what I do. Most people don't. It was addressed to those who are worried about shaking hands with people who don't wash there hands.

 

[Serpentine]

Fully support the witch hunt + public shaming for motherfuckers who don't wash their hands after shitting. Shit's gross.

 

[velociraptor]

You know that when you flush a toilet a cloud of feces particles are launched into the air right? So unless you sprint out of the bathroom/stall the second you flush you should probably change your clothes too.

Did you know there is an amazing thing called a toilet lid? Use it.

 

[terrisus]

You are all disgusting people, who deserve to be shamed on this forum.

They should all be tagged for this.
Especially as a warning for any future GAF meets.

That's what I do. Most people don't. It was addressed to those who are worried about shaking hands with people who don't wash there hands.

Fair enough.

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

You think Americans would be particularly mindful. Wouldn't want dirty hands while we are clapping after every time we shit

 

[Finrod]

People are way too squeamish about germs and cleanliness nowadays. There is nothing filthy about not washing your hands after a deuce, no one will be any worse because of it. In fact i would claim the opposite. A little filth is good for you.

 

[Surface of Me]

Did you know there is an amazing thing called a toilet lid? Use it.

This is some next level germaphobe shit right here, you close it everytime you flush?

 

[LordAzrael]

Did you know there is an amazing thing called a toilet lid? Use it.

Maybe YOU should be shamed for being a germaphobe? Do you literally not have an immune system?

 

[terrisus]

Maybe YOU should be shamed for being a germaphobe? Do you literally not have an immune system?

Because the only way to build up an immune system is exchanging feces with other people.

[Mechanized]

Not all public toilets have lids. And last I checked toilet lids aren't air tight, so your pants are getting a blast of fecal matter at the very least. Also, I do put down the lid if possible. I'm just stating a fact.
I do wash my hands for the record, but some of you are over-reacting to an insane degree.

We aren't overclean and neatfreaks, we'd just really appreciate not coming in contact with your shit. It's not too much to ask; it's your own problem you are too lazy to take 10 seconds to wash your hands. If you're fine with being a disgusting person, that's okay, but don't try to paint others as overreacting - maybe your upbringing is to blame, but in the vast majority of the world (even 3rd world countries) it is expected that one wash their hands after taking a shit, and most half-way decent parents ingrain that into their children's behavior.

Regardless, your immune system isn't stronger because you keep your shit on your hands. The skin on your body is covered with microorganisms already, our entire environment is contaminated with microorganisms, your large intestine already contains all the microorganisms that can possibly be in your shit (so why are you reintroducing them?) - all of these areas already stimulate your immune system more than enough. Killing germs on your hands will not reduce your immunity, but it will help prevent infections. Doctors/nurses use hand sanitizer between patients like 50+ times a day, are they doomed? No. Do you know how much help clean sanitation and hygiene practices have been for society?

 

[Astral]

Maybe YOU should be shamed for being a germaphobe? Do you literally not have an immune system?

It's not even about being a germaphobe. It's just gross.

 

[Parch]

So pretty much every doctor on the planet doesn't know what they're talking about and the non-washers do?

 

[Eyeron]

Don't know. There's this elderly gentlemen in my office who never washes up and the bathroom is like his 2nd home. He also likes to reach into other people's food containers with filthy hands and no permission to do so.

He's an attorney.

It's baffling stuff.

 

[Avixph]

Isn't that how people get Ebola?

 

[SeanR1221]

So pretty much every doctor on the planet doesn't know what they're talking about and the non-washers do?

And don't forget every doctor and nurse must have the shittiest immune system because they constantly wash their hands.

 

[eot]

Between that, all the soap and the latex gloves skin issues aren't uncommon for them, but that's another topic entirely.

LordAzrael is probably just a troll.

 

[Mammoth Jones]

Holy fuck at the people defending this.

Ya'll nasty.

Wash your hands! How you take a nasty shit then walk out like it ain't nothing. Disgusting.

I don't think I can recall the last time I took a dump and didn't wash my hands. Eww.

 

[NateDog]

People in my local gym do this all the damn time, I can tell since it's quiet and small and you can hear pretty much all the doors opening and closing (the entry to the bathrooms as well as the stalls, I mean). Bloody disgusting.

Well you are over reacting. you probably come into contact with non washers everyday and you don't even know it. If your best friend who you've known forever came up to you and told you he's a non washer would it destroy your friendship?

 

[Omega]

Who shits on their hand?

There's a toilet bowl and this thing called toilet paper

 

[ItIsOkBro]

I'd much rather shake the hand of someone who oversanitizes than doesn't wash their shit hands.

 

[velociraptor]

I'm a germaphobe for practising basic cleanliness?

Yes, I close it every time I flush. Problem?

I'm not sure how you are equating basic cleanliness to not having an immune system. Having urine and feces on your hand is barbaric.

Did your parents not instil any basic values in you? Or did you decide to become a disgusting beast on your own accord?

If you want to give your immune system a workout, why don't you just pop down to Western Africa and try drinking the local water? Even better; pop down Liberia!

 

[Lamel]

No, but I'd tell him he's being disgusting and should wash his hands - that fact can't be refuted. People are trying to defend their filthy habit with unscientific claims, which is what I am expressing my opinion against. I'd be fine if they were just honest about it and attributed it to pure laziness and/or ignorance.

I think this is a vocal minority on GAF though, as 83% of people wash their hands after using the bathroom (still kind of low): http://www.health.harvard.edu/fhg/updates/update0806d.shtml

 

[googly]

Y'all have some very high horses. I'm fine, I'll just keep on keeping on. And shaking hands.

I, myself do not have a horse. I however imagine you having some sort of low horse or pony or perhaps a miniature horse would be more apropos to go along with your ass hand shaking.

 

[MrGerbils]

Even not talking about literally washing shit/piss off your hands, it's just good practice to wash your hands a few times a day because of all the other stuff you touch throughout normal living. It'll prevent you getting sick and it'll slow or stop the spread of illness to others.

Most people go to the bathroom a few times a day, and you have just touched some dirty stuff, so it's as good a time as any to get your few daily handwashes in.


http://www.cdc.gov/handwashing/why-handwashing.html

"Keeping hands clean is one of the most important steps we can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others. Many diseases and conditions are spread by not washing hands with soap and clean, running water."

It's not a germaphobe thing, it's just a common sense good health practice with very effective and proven results.

No. Don't be stupid. Having shit on your hands is never a good thing.

I don't think you understand how basic hygiene works.

Literally, every medical professional in the world tells you to wash your hands after you use the restroom. EVERY ONE. I will take the word of people who specialize in preventing and fighting diseases over a few disgusting posters on GAF who lack basic hygiene.

Do you know what's funny? We're the weird ones for washing our hands! Fucking el oh el.

Idiocracy coming to fruition. It's representative of most people in this thread.

 

[Nickle]

Washing your hands more then 3 times a day has to be really unhealthy.

 

[Lamel]

Well after this thread I wouldn't be surprised at that at all. Do whatever mental gymnastics you need to do to preserve your lazy filthiness though.

I also heard it's unhealthy to have a shower every day bruh.

I can't tell if you are being serious, but it strikes me that you are. So allow me to tell you that the direct opposite is the case.

Mayo Clinic Hand Washing Do's and Don'ts

As you touch people, surfaces and objects throughout the day, you accumulate germs on your hands. In turn, you can infect yourself with these germs by touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Although it's impossible to keep your hands germ-free, washing your hands frequently can help limit the transfer of bacteria, viruses and other microbes.

Always wash your hands before:
•Preparing food or eating
•Treating wounds, giving medicine, or caring for a sick or injured person
•Inserting or removing contact lenses

Always wash your hands after:
•Preparing food, especially raw meat or poultry
•Using the toilet or changing a diaper
•Touching an animal or animal toys, leashes, or waste
•Blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing into your hands
•Treating wounds or caring for a sick or injured person
•Handling garbage, household or garden chemicals, or anything that could be contaminated — such as a cleaning cloth or soiled shoes

In addition, wash your hands whenever they look dirty.

You should be washing your hands 5-10 times per day, at least.

 

[Jenenser]

Take comfort in the fact that they wont live as long and be sick more often than hygenic people.

thats a fallacy. they probably have a stronger immunesystem than the guy who showers 3x a day. that said its still nasty as fuck. seen this shit in a restaurant, called him out right on the moment and reportet it to my chef. theres a difference in beeing stiupid and making your customers/teamates eat your shit just because your a lazzy asshole. (only time in my i ratted someone out.)

I wash my hands. who said I didnt? nice insult though

maybe work on your reading comprehension

 

[Cardigan]

You guys must be really bad at wiping with all these claims of "shitty hands" you have.

What happens when you dribble a little pee on your pants? Do you immediately throw them in the wash? If not, you're guilty of spreading all the germs!!!

 

[Afrodium]

This thread makes me want to take a shower. I'm taking a mental note of everyone in this thread who walks around with shit hands all day, especially the ones who think that only germaphobes wash their hands after they stick them inside their shit-filled asshole. Goddamn.

it's all about your immune system. good thing germaphobes are the first to die off for not having one.

Yes I don't use soap or shampoo.

Also, wash your ass if you are really paranoid. toilet paper is just spreading shit on your ass.

You probably smell terrible and no one has told you. Please rub some soap on yourself.

 

[Tragicomedy]

I wash my hands. who said I didnt? nice insult though

Your exact post was:

Who shits on their hand?

There's a toilet bowl and this thing called toilet paper

What are people supposed to imply out of that? If your intent was to indicate that you wash your hands, you accomplished the exact opposite with your word choice.

 

[Woffls]

I wash my hands. who said I didnt? nice insult though

maybe work on your reading comprehension

Your post implied heavily that the need to wash hands was negated by you not shitting on your hand directly.

Particles get around.
