Name something unhygienic/disgusting but people do it

It made me laugh. Obviously I do it, and enjoy it, but on reflection is it any less gross than picking your nose and eating it. There must be all sorts of bacteria on the penises that we gobble down, and semen is vile. Does anyone actually enjoy swallowing?

The dog sleeps on my bed as did her predecessor the cat. I share food with her and kiss and hug her too (but not when she's freshly rolled in fox poo 😂)

We wear shoes through the house and I also wander in bare feet most of the time even in the garden too.
I just don't get the no outdoor shoes inside thing.If they're really muddy they get left at the door but otherwise I couldn't really care less. Also what would I do about the dog? Put shoes on her to go for a walk or special indoor dog slippers for when she comes in????

Me and my husband share towels and don't change the sheets every day either.

I can't stand people leaving the seat up when flushing though. Gross.

I should have been clearer, there are people who scroll on their phone while having a pooh.
I kid you not.

🤢🤮

right with you there! I don't care if it's 'human grade' it's disgusting (especially so as a vegetarian)

What??

I use a washing up bowl. It protect the dishes from the stone sink, I can run the water down or empty any cups/glasses that still have a bit if liquid in the bottom.

it gets washed dried & put away after each lot of dishes are done. What on earth do you think the issue is?

One of these is not like the others... (you may not be old enough?!)

what is disgusting about keeping takeaway containers? (Presuming they're wsshed??). I don't really buy takeaway (health/ food related restrictions) but I do buy things like Fage yogurt, Bol meals & wash & resume the containers over & over.

Whats the problem??

I assumed this was just normal tbh. Though I’m not squeamish about my own body fluids.
But then, nor do we wash the sheets every day because we had sex in them.

I just thought of something I do that is gross/disgusting/unhygienic and I am willing to share

I have a heavy period and if it leaks in the night (it always does, regardless of layers!), I don't change the sheets or mattress protector until my period has gone. I am not talking bloodbath levels but there is always a small patch and I just leave it to dry and sleep on that sheet again.

Donning my hard hat!

see I would put everything you have described as higher up on the gross/disgusting list than the things you said were! We are all different I guess

That's the least of your worries with shopping trollies 🤣🤣🤣.

foxes, rats, birds, various other wildlife depending on where they're stored at night. Not to mention if in some areas human using them for toilets/skeepibf/stir in their bank Shite.

Honestly, I’m a right slattern by MN standards, but money really is dirty. Probably the dirtiest thing you’ll touch today. Young and with a fabulous immune system? Likely no problem whatsoever! Dealing with the elderly and vulnerable? I’m washing my hands frequently after handling, and it’s going no where near my mouth!

I no longer have periods, but when I did there was no way I was trekking out to the bin everytime I changed a tampon or a pad. Absolutely nothing unhygienic about having a lined bathroom bin that's regularly emptied.

Bringing dogs into eating places

🤣🤣🤣EDIT: it list the quote it was attached to! The one re putting other oroll ppl es genitals in your mouth!

But surely no-one takes their phone in the toilet at home? I mean, it would never even occur to me.

I’ve heard people having conversations in the loo cubicles at work while relieving themselves

I’d rather not but they are communal toilets

Having worked in a shop for a few years my advice is don’t ever buy food that’s been left uncovered. I’ve witnessed people squeezing bread with their bare hands, kids handling jellies and putting back into the pick and mix, people eating salads directly from salad bars using the big spoons. I never buy uncovered things for this reason

The number of women on here who see nothing wrong with keeping money in their bra 🤢

Interesting, I can't imagine not using one regularly. We had a holiday let that didn't have a draining rack or mat and no washing up bowl. So inefficient as a process. There was a dishwasher but not enough spare crockery to make use of it on days we ate out.

Kissing dogs and cats. Dogs eat faeces, sniff other dogs bums, eat any old stuff they see, cats clean their bums and genitalia with their tongues, eat vermin, then along comes soppy person giving the animal a kiss!

I'm assuming they mean at home!

Just cos it's gone in the bathroom bin doesn't mean it won't get recycled.

I collect all the small room bins weekly and sort them out into recycling etc.

Where do you suggest people leave their phones? On the washbasins perhaps? Then they leave the toilet and strangely, their phone is missing.

The whole concept of dog-ownership is disgusting, but from a hygiene perspective, it's vile.
They poo, and then their anus is on your floors, sofas, bedding. The eat poo, they eat vomit, they sniff other dogs' asses, then their face is all in your stuff. Rank.

I feel the same about cats, but they aren't as filthy as dogs.

What's wrong with the cardboard inner of a loo roll, or a bit of dental floss, or an empty toothpaste tube, or an empty shampoo bottle, or brace elastics....?
