Second time this week!
I have a weak bladder and the toilets at work are down 2 floors. By the time I get there I am bursting for a wee. I’m fed up of leaking in my knickers wiping up the toilet seat before I get to use it.
Is it really such an ask?!
Have accidentally sat on a damp toilet seat today in my haste and I feel physically sick now.

I hover and don't leave a wee-ified seat behind. I always check. The trick is to squat good and low (excellent for the leg muscles too) Smile

HornyTortoise · 03/11/2017 14:13

Ugh this annoys me so much. I don;t have a weak bladder so don't have the issue of nearly peeing myself, but still wiping up other peoples piss makes me feel a little ill.

Better than the utter beasts who used the loo before me a few weeks back. May have been the same person. May have been someone earlier in the day. Not sure but there were skidmarks all up the loo, there was actual poo on the back of the loo (both on the seat and on the cistern) and it just would have been impossible not to notice so someones seen they hav e done it and left it for someone else.

THEN I moved to the next cubicle instead, looked clean enough. Sat down and when I turned my head, there was what I assume was bogeys smeared up the wall Sad

Just why. People are disgusting.

I used to work in a pub, and the amount of people who shat in the urinal was just astounding. So obviously on purpose...

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 03/11/2017 14:15

Some women are fucking disgusting in toilets! I never cease to be amazed at how revolting the women's loos can be in public places.

The wee on the seats I think is usually from the hoverers - just because YOU don't want to sit on the seat, at least wipe your own mess up afterwards! Ugh.

As for the ones who don't flush - don't get me started.

gillybeanz · 03/11/2017 14:18

People who hover don't make any more mess than someone who sits.
I don't sit on a seat that somebody elses bare ass has been, yuk.
I've also never dribbled on the seat or floor, not since I was a toddler anyway.

In pubs these days it is often the womens loos that are trashed according to a landlord friend.

What do you think might happen if you did?

VladmirsPoutine · 03/11/2017 14:22

derxa Even if nothing would happen, it's still disgusting.

Andylion · 03/11/2017 14:22

Also those other offenders who cover the seat with tissue and then leave it on the floor need

I used to use a different restroom at work, one shared with members of the public - it was by the room where student workers such as myself had lockers. There used to be a woman would cover the seat with three layers of toilet paper and leave it there.

FFS, if you think the toilet is too gross for you to sit on, fine, but you leave it in an even grosser state as you leave your mess for the next person. I was almost 100% certain that I knew who it was as she was always in the restroom when it had happened, however, I never actually saw her exit the cubicle in that state.

derxa · 03/11/2017 14:24

Even if nothing would happen, it's still disgusting. Does this mean you hover at home as well?

gillybeanz · 03/11/2017 14:24

derxa

What would happen? Confused
It's just unhygienic, you don't know who used it last, nor what their hygiene standard is.
It really isn't difficult to do and not dribble piss everywhere.

DollyLlama · 03/11/2017 14:24

I've never understood how women can get urine ALL over the toilet! Makes me feel sick

Jux · 03/11/2017 14:25

I feel your pain, op. MS has affected my bladder too and when I need to go I need to go!

I have found some loos have a very strong rush of water when they flush and they spray the seat. Just tell yourself it’s one of those.

Andylion · 03/11/2017 14:26

there was actual poo on the back of the loo (both on the seat and on the cistern)

I just remembered that there were also regular squatters in that shared restroom, women who would squat on their feet on the seat. You could see shoe prints. Once I went in and there was actual shit on the seat, at the back. She had not bothered to check where she had gone.

VladmirsPoutine · 03/11/2017 14:27

Does this mean you hover at home as well?

Well obviously not because it's ummmmm... my home!

birdiebirdiewoofwoof · 03/11/2017 14:28

My mum has crippling arthritis in her hip. Someone tell me how the fuck she is expected to 'just hover'.

gillybeanz · 03/11/2017 14:29

wtf would I hover at home?
It's a bit different knowing you are using your own hygienic loo where only a couple of members of your family have been, who also share your standard of hygiene.

DrDreReturns · 03/11/2017 14:30

Yep it's disgusting sitting on a public loo seat. Just think, someone else's skin has been there. shudders

glitterlips1 · 03/11/2017 14:30

The wee isn't from hoverers. Don't get precious about us just because you don't mind having your bare backside on a public loo. Some women leave a snail trail on the seat therefore, I will continue to hover. Heave.

Loctite · 03/11/2017 14:31

Yes I agree! I think the people who hover are causing the problems and very often there is wee all over the floor in front of the toilet base too.

Just clean up after yourselves! It drives me mad as it is so disgusting but it is also needless. I just can't believe so many hover!

glitterlips1 · 03/11/2017 14:32

I can't believe that so many don't hover.

gillybeanz · 03/11/2017 14:32

Andylion
I can honestly say my feet have never touched a toilet seat, apart from standing on one at school to play pranks on friends Grin
I think you'd need to be quite fit almost contortionist to do this and I agree that you'd probably make more mess.

Wellthatwasembarassing · 03/11/2017 14:32

I hover but I clean before and after. I don't really trust others to have cleaned it properly before I can sit on or hover near it. Public loos really give me the heebie jeebies though. I was in a service station one the other day and there was a huge chunk of poo smeared up the wall. There are some very very grim people in this world.

BenLui · 03/11/2017 14:32

DrDre the same person whose skin touched the door handle you just closed and are about to open...?
