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

I don't want to touch it either, but if you're going to stand in front of a public toilet, just lift the damn seat.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And new seats even have a bump out so you can use your feet.

Its whatever, just wash your hands people.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

The one's on doesn't are the ones who also doesn't at home and if they do they don't put it down afterwards.
Those people need to be forced to lick toilet seats until they learn some basic manners.

I drive really slow in the ultra fast lane 
While people behind me are going insane

I'm an asshole !

I use public toilets, and I piss on the seat 
I walk around in the Summer time, saying, "How about this heat?"

I'm an asshole !

Try to find the stand-up show ‘no cure for cancer’ this song is in it and the rest is insanely good,

I want a restaurant only for men, naked men all sitting round a camp fire eating meat, straight off the cow. In fact bring me the whole cow, I’ll carve off what I want and ride the rest home!

Or something like that.

That and therapy,

I’ll give you therapy, therapy is mowing the lawn and crying Edit; Found it No cure for cancer

The video starts with the song, but it’s a 1 hour stand-up show.

[–] LavaPlanet@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

My ex used to laugh about how he would purposefully piss on public toilet seats. Absolute sociopath. I guess Dennis was giving us some screening questions.

I think you’ve got two types of people doing this:

  • penis people who just plain can not be bothered to lift the seat. The types of folks who bumble through life haphazardly, don’t wear seat belts, let dishes pile up, put the sour cream back in the fridge without putting the lid back on, who never bother to wash their feet or legs in the shower because they think the soap that washes down their body will handle it, people who drink the last of the coffee without making another pot. Selfish, but also kinda physically grody.
  • vagina people who hover. These people I do not understand.
[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 36 points 2 months ago (1 children)

People who hover hover because of people who hover.

Yo dawg, I heard you like to hover.

[–] Andonyx@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

For a second I thought you'd come up with a new epithet for people who don't hold up their end of the social contract: penis people. I thought, "that's a new and fun way to call someone a dick." 🤔

Not mildly.

Majorly.

I had part of my digestive tract removed. I can't afford an accident at the urinal.

[–] Zarobi@aussie.zone 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's fucking gross.

I always wipe down every seat with enough toilet paper I feel like I'm not going to directly touch any pee. It's just an ingrained habit from decades of living with people who like their toilet seats cold, moist, and yellow.

Tap for NSFWMy least favourite is when it seems like they didn't even pull back the foreskin or something, and just completely cover the entire toilet, seat, and floor, with a fine spray of urine. Lovely. I wipe down everything with like 20 squares of tp and then wash my hands before even doing my business.

[–] datavoid@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

Those uncut savages!

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We had this problem in a communal bathroom in a dorm I lived in. People were practically coming to blows over it. Turns out that when the toilet flushed, it would spray piss up out of the bowl onto the seat. We all thought it was someone else, but it was really every one of us inadvertently.

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

A likely story, seat pisser. J'ACCUSE!

[–] pineapple@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

There is this thing called lifting up the seat. DO IT!

[–] kadotux@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just sit down to pee like an adult

[–] jestho@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago (10 children)

But there's piss everywhere :(

I've literally gone into public bathrooms with no urinals, only stalls, and the seats don't lift up. You have no choice but to aim and pray.

Except I'm not a degenerate and I'll grab some paper and wipe anywhere I missed.

I doubt the overwhelming majority of the seat pissers are reading your comment.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

How about when there's that bit of filth at the back, center you know came from their ass crack?

It's even worse when you know who it is, because now it's like you have x-ray vision to their ass crack.

[–] RedEyeFlightControl@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

People are required to wipe down sweaty gym equipment, they should also be required to wipe down the shitter. IDK why this isn't a thing.

[–] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 months ago

This is why I piss into the sink instead. And since I didn't have to touch any surfaces beside my own wiener, I don't even have to worry about washing my hands.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

I usually sit to pee; but since there's piss on the seat, I stand and end up contributing more piss to the already pissy seat. It's a vicious cycle of piss.

[–] SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago (9 children)

Just lift the fuckin seat to pee then omg

Use your foot for that if you have to

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just lift the fuckin seat to pee then omg

Use your foot for that if you have to

  1. wipe seat. It's fine.
  2. If you're at a seat, be seated; standing is over there.
  3. wash hands like silkwood after

Is this only trivial for gen-X?

I work at a place with a lot of people from southeast Asia. It is not uncommon to be in a stall and look over to see the feet of someone stepping into the next stall just disappear as they approach the crapper.

I don't mind them standing on the seat to squat, but for the love of humanity, please clean up the fucken mess afterwards!

Also, our toilets flush pretty assertively and often they will splash up dirty water from the toilet bowl onto the seat and floor as the auto-flush unleashes.

The weird one is the guy who uses it as a fucken bidet... like, Bruh. Nasty.

[–] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The restrooms at my workplace can get down right nasty. We get a ton of temp workers (I started out as a temp), and they are given very short breaks from the assembly line. At least 20% do not wash their hands. People carry on phone conversations and scroll TikTok in the stalls. The seats, after their breaks, are usually pretty gross. The floors around the toilets get very gross by the end of their shift.

I loathe that spironolactone makes me thirsty, and in turn makes me need to urinate somewhat often. My hovering game is on point though.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 2 months ago

or shit on the toilet seat, or the walls.

[–] Zomg@piefed.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Dont look up the Yellow Pee Pee Monster.

Sorry in advance. lf I have to be aware he existed, you do too

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

For using the stalls to pee sometimes the urinals are full. As to why I know my wife says im one of the few men who don't leave piss on the toilet. So apparently its common. Not talking just the seat here but the bowl when the seat is up. Like the bowl rim that is parralellel to the floor so it will just sit there and be all. ewwww.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe, but I'm also seeing more men going straight to the toilet stall to pee even though there are several urinals open. And even then, they should lift the seat.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 4 points 2 months ago

yeah thats kinda wierd. maybe they are shy although then I can't imagine what they do at a ballpark.

[–] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

I don't care about others why should I care when I'll never have to clean or use that toilet again. /s

[–] DrunkAnRoot@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

I avoid public bathrooms for this reason
