Disgusting Confessions

[MochynBudr]

AIBU to dare you to confess your disgusting habits? Just a bit of light hearted fun

I love picking my nose! Haha
Not a disgusting habit but I pick my hair A LOT. It really annoys my DH.
I'm sure I have more but can think of any just yet!

I am a little shocked at the non handwashers. 2 seconds out your life to run water over your hands!

Throwing my hair from my hairbrush out the bedroom window

Doesnt everyone do this so birds can use it in nests ?

I don't do this because it can tangle their feet together.

I use an emery board (I hope I've spelt that right, I'd be a dick it I didn't), to file away hard skin on my heels. My husband called it, "Foot polishing". Generally I do it when on my own but there has been the odd occasion when I thought he was asleep on the sofa.

Faecal matter is there even after washing. Those hand dryers blast it everywhere.

So... what? Would you recommend leaving shit on your hands because faecal matter is everywhere? It's pretty silly to believe that failing to wash your hands after going to the toilet is helping to improve to the world's immune system. Your shitty hands touching something an immunocompromised child might touch isn't much different than a surgeon (or for that matter your GP) touching you while providing medical care without first washing their hands. Handwashing massively reduces the spread of diseases and is hardly onorous.

As a little cautionary tale , they reckon you should never put out your hair for the birds, as your hair could wrap around legs or necks and eventually kill.
Pet hair (if shortish is fine )

Lordy, I'm not a fusspot but reading this aversion to hand washing I find it no wonder that things like norovirus spread like wildfire.

I confessed to not washing my hands after a wee.

It's unfair to say this though. Whenever I've had a stomach bug I wash my hands like they scrub in, between every finger, front, back, and for ages.

Another picker here, plus I used to chew finger until one went septic and the Dr looked at me and told me to stop picking/chewing! he knew lol.

When I am clearing the horses field (like twice a day) if I drop a nugget off the barrow I happily pick it up in my bare hands. Woman saw me and was horrified but, as I said, it's only grass not nasty like dog poo.

And I might keep a hidden, battered saucepan in the cupboard for wee emergencies . May be time to throw it out now I am on my own and bathroom is never occupied.

This thread makes me feel a little sick but who am I to judge. I pick my nose and belly button sometimes.......

Urgh I wish I hadn't opened this thread. I am not a clean freak at all but I cannot believe there are people who don't wash their hands after going to the toilet.

Well I don't wipe with my hand, I use toilet paper, and urine is actually sterile, you can drink it and there is less bacteria in it than in tap water. Again it's not on my hands because I use toilet paper so..... 🤷‍♀️

You obviously didn't read any of my posts at all.

I never have shit on my hands, I wash them every time after that, only if I've had a quick wee I don't wash my hands.

My 'shitty hands' will not touch something an immunocompromised child (or person for that matter) because I don't have shitty hands, thanks very much.

You are all a bunch of manky bastards

I'm a compulsive scab picker. Just can't stop myself, even making myself bleed and having the scabs come back again and again. I picked the DCs too when they were little, only ones that looked ready though. Not DH's or anyone else's as that would be gross.

So when you have a wee you also don't touch the toilet lid, the flush, or the toilet roll?

I don't touch the lid, it's already up.

The flush I use the loo roll, and I do touch the toilet roll, yes.

ooh picking the gunk out of my earring backs, and obviously smelling it...

I peed in DH flask on the motorway last week cos it was 20 miles to the next services and i was bursting. I was in the car on my own with the dog. I havent told him, washed it out and made his coffee in it the next morning xxx

I like squeezing other people's spots and blackheads
Yep, same here. In fact it's a ritual that we call "monkey love" 😁

Hello my fellow glass pissers 😁

This thread is making me alternately howl with laughter and want to vom!!

Share my partner's toothbrush. I also pop his spots on his back.

@Diagonalli - you need a she-wee. www.amazon.co.uk/stores/SHEWEE/SHEWEE/page/B18AE186-4FCA-4E32-B51A-3A30630D5B7C?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

I learnt how to wee in a lucozade bottle on my last camping trip.

I'll see your lucozade bottle and raise you a Coke can...

I use an emery board (I hope I've spelt that right, I'd be a dick it I didn't)

I see what you did there...

@womenspeakout so you dont close the lid before flushing so dirty water and possible faecal matter splashes out and gets on the rest of the bathroom and possibly toothbrushes if they are not put away

Nose picker here. I use tweezers and a mirror to get at the big cornflakes at the back....

Unfortunately I also get daily nose bleeds when I blow my nose so I'm waiting to see ENT. I'm pretty sure I just need a vein cauterised.

I don't wash my hands after a pee unless someone can see me.

I'm an obsessive spot and blackhead squeezer - I have a little pack of tools. Sadly I've cleaned up my husband's face, head, neck and back so much I rarely get a big satisfying pop anymore. I would LOVE to get my hands on FIL face - 70-odd years of farming and mining, he's absolutely covered in enormous blackheads.
