FIL is a digusting caveman. I don't know how lovely MIL puts up with him. They are here for buffet lunch & tea today. He has prostate problems so is going for a wee every half hour or so. Since they arrived at 11am, he hasn't washed his hands once. But he has spent hours lovingly fingering the buffet food. He just emerged from the downstairs loo again, and I said to DD "you didn't put the Hello Kitty handwash in that loo, did you? Grandad doesn't want to smell of strawberries". He just ignored us. Food is probably showered in piss by now anyway. Xmas Sad

margaret my FIL does the same - takes a piss with the bathroom door wide open - it's a bloody torrent sometimes. Have taken to shutting the door very loudly for him when he's in there to try and make the point.

OP - YANBU. I'd be Detolling everything.

Yanbu. I had to do this to both my PILs. Really foul. He used to be a chef too. Blurgh.

Urine is sterile, safe to drink and bathe wounds in so you are all a bit hysterical.

Normal urine is sterile. It contains fluids, salts, and waste products, but it is free of bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

That's ok then holly we can all just ingest each others urine Hmm
Urine maybe sterile but their sweaty bollox and willys aren't are they?

Cantbelieveitsnotbutter · 26/12/2012 23:31

My fil is the same. Vile, he's been holding his willy and touching the flush that has had pooy (not actual poo but you get the gist) hands on and the door handle.
Just wash your bloody hands!!!!

Big market for urine therapies - all of which involve drinking the stuff.

Not my cup of tea, but you won't die from it.

Contrary to popular perception, urine is not a by-product of the body's waste disposal system but of blood filtration. Nutrient-filled blood passes through the liver, where toxins are removed and excreted as solid waste. The purified blood then goes through another filtering process via the kidneys, where components for which the body has no immediate use are collected in a sterile, watery solution. For that reason, it is highly sterile, consisting of 95 per cent water and five per cent nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, proteins, antibodies and other beneficial ingredients.

Advocates of auto-urine therapy believe that this combination can help cure everything from the common cold to cancer, boosting energy levels and sexual performance along the way. While the practice has always been popular in China, India and South-east Asia, a small but growing band of Western fans are also downing a daily dose. Books with titles such as The Golden Fountain all extol the virtues of urine.

Slightly off topic by my 2 ds sit down to wee at home and stand up elsewhere.

House rule.

Unfortunately, I can't really make their mates or our male mates do the same so they piss all over the seat, floor and leave us little droplets of piss on the adjacent radiator.

CaHoHoHootz · 27/12/2012 00:23

Urine may be sterile but I don't think willies.

I would not do a buffet ever again.......

CaHoHoHootz · 27/12/2012 00:23

.....willies are.

The old one threw up , she picked the lumps up with her fingers while coooing aww have you been a bit sick. then goes and throws it in the bin and comes back and continues eating her turkey... both myself and my DD were baulking.

that's about the same colour as my face was piglet

pigletmania · 27/12/2012 01:03

I was a little bit sick in my mouth reading your post. We're you rund hers or was she round at yours

likeatonneofbricks · 27/12/2012 01:06

it's touching the flush and also the handle to an extent, that's really yuk and makes hands filthy, isn't it - after it being touched by everyone else after having more than a wee. I never get it how does it help to wash hands in public loos as everyone OPENS a tap with dirty hands, and then closes same tap with washed hands - if they are old fashioned taps that is. Thankfully some flushes/taps are non-touch now.

meddie · 27/12/2012 01:18

Round at hers. Not only did she have the horrible. untrained yappy PITA dogs, she also agreed to babysit a neighbours dog for the day. Which we had no idea about until we arrived. She treats the dogs like babies and they bark constantly at every noise. They will shut up if you firmly say no. But then my mother gets annoyed and tells you not to shout at her babies. So its not a pleasant experience to visit her.your head is banging by the time you leave.
Think shes losing the plot though. My daughter bought her a kindle fire for xmas, she bought my daughter a tin of Elnett hairspray.... Fortunately she found it funny.

Every thread on non hand washing after going to the toilet makes me feel ill.

surely it's automatic? just wash your ducking hands?

yuk!

jaggythistle · 27/12/2012 01:59

ah. my phone doesn't like to swear. replace the appropriate d with an f please. :)

AutumnGlory · 27/12/2012 02:40

My solutions was to buy a lovely liquid soap dispenser and fill it with hand gel sanitizer. Than I boasted to people who don't like to wash their hands (PILs) what a brilliant discovery I had found, those huge bottles of hospital hand sanitizer on ebay to fill the lovely liquid dispenser that sits next to the flush bottom!!!!!! 'Oh you must try, your hands feel so fresh after rubbing it...' Said me. Now they always come out the toilet rubbing their hands. I'm not sure if it is more effective than water and soap but is better than nothing.

Good idea Autumn
