I specify men's restroom since there are alternatives to peeing which don't involve a toilet seat.

That's a really weird thing to do. My sensory disorder feels violated through the screen.

Are you telling me how my sensory processing disorder should operate? Do you tell paralyzed people how to walk too?

[–] creamfresh@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

No I’m telling you it’s not weird to not want contact with the thigh schmand of 80 different people that lived through the same hot 36deg day.

[–] kadotux@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What's your problem? :D they said covering toilet seats is not weird, they were not commenting on your sensory issues.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

How do you know? Not to mention in my 40 years on this Earth I've never heard of anyone putting paper on toilet seats who isn't a germaphopic sociopath.

Do you put toilet paper down every time you shit on your own toilet? That's a REALLY weird thing to do. I'm all for the seat shaped hospital paper liners in most public bathrooms but ripping up toilet paper just to have it stick to your gross ass is really fucking weird my guy.

Alright then. You can think that. I really don't have the energy to respond to your insults, (1. when you are clearly in the wrong here, 2. I know it not to be weird from where I'm from, and 3. I really couldn't give two shits what you think of my bathroom habits) So I'm gonna leave now. My guy.

Edit: to answer your question "How do you know?"

I can fucking read, that's how.

Edit 2:

So I have insomnia, can't sleep again so I might as well really explain this to you.

Let's start with this: You wrote: "That’s a really weird thing to do. My sensory disorder feels violated through the screen."

user creamfresh replied: "No it's not"

Now really read it. What could they be referring to? Is it: "That’s a really weird thing to do." -> "No it's not" or "My sensory disorder feels violated through the screen" -> "No it's not"

One of them makes sense in english, the other one doesn't. So it is obvious, if you have basic english reading comprehension to make out what they mean. If they had meant the latter, they would've said: "No it doesn't".

So, the fact that another person chimed in and commented "it's not weird" proves that I am not alone thinking this..

Let's move on: "Not to mention in my 40 years on this Earth I’ve never heard of anyone putting paper on toilet seats who isn’t a germaphopic sociopath."

I am also 40 years old. I have met plenty of people who do this sometimes. Have you ever travelled? Have you met a lot of different people from different cultures and discussed this issue with them? Secondly, I am not a germaphobic sociopath, fuck you for implying that. If you had actually read what I said, you might have not came up with such a stupid thing to say. For repetition, here is what I said:

"I tend to cover the seat with toilet paper before sitting, if the toilet seems filthy :D"

Now again, really read it. Notice how I say if the toilet seems filthy. Really, is it germaphobic to cover your ass from touching a shitty toilet? Have you ever been in a shitty toilet? Do you even know what we're talking about here? And tell me, what is sociopathic about it? Tell me also, what do you do if you gotta shit right now and all you have available is a shitty toilet covered in god knows what? Have you ever even been in a situation like that? No really, what do you do? And while we're at it, what do you suggest for people that have a vagina to do when they absolutely need to pee and all they got is a shitty train toilet? Only wiping the seat works sometimes, but if the toilet is absolutely rancid (believe me, they exist), you might not want your ass to touch its surface (which then by proxy touch your clothes) There is nothing germaphobic about not wanting that.

Your next sentence: "Do you put toilet paper down every time you shit on your own toilet?" Again, it really begins to feel like you actually have a reading comprehension problem. Let's go back again and check what I actually said: "I tend to cover the seat with toilet paper before sitting, if the toilet seems filthy :D" Again notice how I say if the toilet seems filthy. My toilet is not filthy, so no, I really don't "put toilet paper down every time I use my own toilet". I never do, fucking obviously. That's not what I said, at all. You're just trying to strawman me here by imagining things I have not said.

"I’m all for the seat shaped hospital paper liners in most public bathrooms but ripping up toilet paper just to have it stick to your gross ass is really fucking weird my guy." Again, what do you do if you really need to take a shit and all you got is a toilet with a seat covered in god-knows-what? I'll rather have paper "stick to my gross ass" than having actual, literal shit "stick to my gross ass".

You can keep pissing standing in public toilets all you fucking want, but don't come and say that my toilet behavior is somehow sociopathic while you piss all over the fucking bathroom, you dick.
