When you find out that your husband has some really disgusting habits

[Gaaaah]

Firstly, not a poo troll.

I never realised how fucking disgusting he is until I happened to walk into the bathroom one day when he was having a shower and in the bottom of the shower tray was a massive lump of shit that he quickly stood on and pretended wasn't there. I was visibly horrified but apologised for going in and backed out sharpish.

I put it out of my mind. I don't even know why. I should have confronted him right there and then but I didn't. I haven't encountered anything like that again. More often than not he'll actually call me in to chat about something to do with his day that he feels won't wait until after he's showered.

He had a shower today after work. He forgot to flush the loo. So when I've gone to use it later, I can see that there's no toilet paper down there. He hasn't wiped his arse after a shit. Then he's got straight into the shower. My shower. That I scrub on my hands and knees.

It's disgusting, I know. Worse than poo crumbs man. And i feel absolutely ashamed and repulsed by him.

who shares a flannel

i even have my own shower puff if my dh uses mine i chuck it

I would never use a partners flannel or anything else. Not because I think they are dirty, but because it's theirs.

My husband is so disgusted he's advised me to stay off the thread.

The look on his face was a picture when I read OPs post.

😩

I buy packs of cheap ones and keep them in the bathrooms. One basket for clean ones and after one use they go in the dirty flannel basket and get washed with zoflora in the washing machine

Yep, we have these as well.

I'm glad I'm not alone Mrs

But, if you were to fit the bum gun you need to make sure the water pressure isn't so high it blasts you off the loo and rips your bottom to shreds in the process

OMG, this mental image! grin

. It's a good job then that I couldn't find a way to post the picture of one resembling an acetylene torch when water only comes through the taps in scalding hot mode.

So those who use flannels instead of paper, is it a dry flannel? Then into the nappy bucket, effectively? I get very sore if I buy the wrong paper...

I don't use a flannel to wipe post toilet.....

Oops!
Some people have fleece wipes, like they use with washable nappies. I thought it was a variant on that...

Sharing flannels...eewwwww.

The DDs and I all use a hot cloth cleanser, and remove it with our own flannel. Flannels only used the once, then washed (at 60 degrees, too). I've got stacks of them, folded in a basket in the bathroom. They're only about 60p each from Home Bargins.

The toilet thing is not just men. The last place I worked there was regularly wee and poo in the same toilet, with no paper. As PPs have said, poo on its own may just not have gone down properly when flushed. But when there's wee too it's a different matter. I couldn't look my female colleagues in the eye for knowing one of them had a dirty arse. Every bloody day.

I'm glad I'm not alone Mrs grin

I find them a really good substitute for 'kissing my bottom better' when I've either pebble dashed it, or set it on fire with the him gun.

I'm neither a giraffe or a contortionist si kissing my arse goodbye is impossible.

Maybe I am alone - flannels chez darth are for face cleaning and in the shower ( having already been to the toilet and wiped properly with dry paper or wet wipes if needed).

Is it terrible I kind of want OP to come back to hear what possible mitigating excuses can be conjured up for shitting in the shower?

And also how on earth he intends to make up for it? Somehow I don't think a bunch of flowers are going to cut it here, which is what I normally get when DH fucks up. Admittedly not in such a squalid way 🤢

I mean what really says "I'm really sorry for shitting in the shower and waffle stomping it into oblivion"? Hallmark have missed the boat here.

Hallmark have missed the boat here.

PMSL

It's interesting that we just wipe with paper when you think about it. If you got shit on your hand, you'd scrub it with soap and water. With your arse cracking you just wipe with dry piper and that's that.

Arse crack*

Why is the autocorrect on Mumsnet so much worse than anywhere else?!

Paper** ffs!

I don't Wets I wash if possible afterwards but I'm
a clean freak.

Laughing so much about arse cracking and the dry piper. Autocorrect is so funny.

Reminded me of the French Policeman in Hello, Hello.

Need an update from OP, did she confront the shower shiter? Is he suitably ashamed? Has Dyno-rod been called in?

Jacq they may ha e wiped with a wet wipe which don't go down the loo, then popped it in the bin after?
I've got to be honest I don't understand the using of a flannel! Why not moist toilet tissue?

It's more eco friendly to use them instead of loo roll. Tend to be used by people who are happy cloth nappy users. I used washable wipes instead of baby wipes (unless we were out of the house). It's a small step from there I suppose. A small step I didn't make.

I see Pickle, I didn't think of that! Thank you!
