To think it is beyond rude & disgusting to leave shit stains in the toilet

[BobbysBeardOfWonder]

I fear I am reacting particularly badly to this as am feverish & knackered, but...

My parents are visiting - my DC are 2 and 10 weeks.
All gone pretty smoothly until this morning, just before we went out. I went to the loo & discovered a delightful array of shit stains all over the pan.

I asked my dad - yes it was him, he tried to get them off... But what?! Couldn't be arsed so left them for me to deal with?! Wtf?!?!

I'm so pissed off its unreal. Before taking DD to bed for her nap just now I asked one of them to clean it. I seriously never thought I'd have to have that conversation with my dad.

Mine smell of roses too no ner

bloody so ner, so ner not crapping no ner.

My ex's Dad used to sit on our loo smoking cigars and then leaving enormous skiddies. Anyway he's dead now which i think sort of evens things out.

I knew this would descend into a loo brush thread, my absolute favourite thing on MN.

An email went round my partner's work telling them that whoever it was that was regularly shitting all over the toilet including seat and cistern was to cease immediately.

Everyone spent weeks giving each other shifty looks trying to figure out who the culprit was.

I love a good loo brush thread.

Makes my day off work all the more worthwhile

I used to play schools on the loo. Used to line all my teddies and dollies up and mark them off the register, was in there for hours at a time apparently

What's wrong with toilet brushes?
They're fine right as long as you use for the intended purpose and don't, say, clean teeth with them?

boyswillgrow flipping hell!!!! Hahahahaha, sorry, but Wth had your mother eaten?!

When DS was born back in January I had to stay in hospital as he was a bit tiny, and I couldn't feel my back passage muscles and was constipated. The mw gave me about 50ml of lactulose syrup one afternoon, and that night.....let's just say I was bloody thankful it was 12am and no one wanted to use the toilet. It took me 20 mins to clean everything with about 4 flushes and then I put some of my shampoo in there and flushed for a nice smell. God I was frantic, incase the mw came looking to take ds's temp. Bad memories like that put me off having another baby.

The point is, EVERYONE SHOULD CLEAN THEIR OWN POO.

"EVERYONE SHOULD CLEAN THEIR OWN POO."

Indeed.

If OP´s Dad couldn´t be bothered to clean up his own poo-why on earth did he think someone else would want to do it?

Exactly diddl

I doubt 'I know- I'll leave that for DD to clean up, she won't mind' actually crossed his mind. If he flushed and walked out without peering into the loo at all he probably didn't even notice.

But he did know it was there-as he stated in the op!

Sorry-not as he stated-just as stated!

OP to be clear I wasn't criticising you - I think you did the right thing and have full respect

It was more a criticism of my own father because my relationship with him would NOT survive that conversation! When I was 9 he stopped speaking to me for 3 months because I sat on the back seat of the car when the front one was free ffs

What a lot of fuss over something that would go away by itself after a while.

Greenshadow isn't that the case for 99% of AIBU?

Sorry diddl. Lost concentration on this important thread for a minute. Anyway, I don't think there can be many more angles to this thread so I think I'm done.

I will not be starting a thread about my father's bowel habits any time soon.

Poo stains don't just "go away"!! You have to bleach them or rub them off, or else they just stay there and get mouldy. Mouldy poo

For those without loo brushes how do you clean the skid marks below the water line? I am genuinely interested, I may give up my skanky loo brush if someone has an answer for that.

Brilliant thread I have been sat on the sofa giggling away at some of the comments and stories :o

I seriously don't know how to clean a toilet without a toilet brush?! I use disposable wipes to clean the seat and the rim and some good old bleach and a good scrub for the bowl. I just get a cheap toilet brush so it's easily replaced and soak it in bleach.

Anyway op, glad you brought it up with your dad, he's old enough to clean up after himself!

Gosh, op, your poor dad!

You could've squirted some bleach at offending skiddies and forgotten all about it.

Someone once left the blue whale of the poo world in my loo. It was so big and immovable that I had to chop it in half. But, being mannerly, I didn't mention it to the offender.

That would have given you cause for concern.

why is it "poor dad, requested to remove his skid marks" and not "poor op, forced to clean other people's shit"? Can you imagine if she would not bother at his place either and left her shit for her dad to clean?

I wouldn't have said anything but it is really gross and unfair to leave someone else to clean up your mess.

of course the old duffer OP's father should clean up!

and toilet brushes are used to scrub, and then I flush and so rinse the brush, and then squoosh more bleach in the loo and dunk the brush back in.

Have also developed a method of whizzing the brushhandle between the palms of my hands which wheeks off any excess water into the bowl....I can run classes if anyone wishes! :D

What is the deal with MN and bog brushes?? Catch me with my lovely manicure in a u-bend....mynotfinkso!
