I blow my nose on the washing before it goes in the machine... rather than find a tissue!

If I can't find a hand towel after I've washed my hands, I often dry them on the cat

Wipe my mouth with the bathroom towel if i still have a load of toothpaste around it in a morning.

What's the alternative?

As a bloke I find it quite weird how people get bent out of shape about this, i touch my willy to aim the stream, I don't piss all over my hands and then walk out the bathroom.

Because your Willy fingers are then touching things I’m about to touch?!

Scaredofthesecuts · 25/03/2025 20:09

I kiss my pets. On the nose..

Just joking.
No. It’s in a cupboard upstairs with Louds of other Spode stuff we don’t use.
If I die my kids will inherit so I suppose they might though. 😆

🤣🤣🤣

Yep. @LeaderBee and @CowboyJoanna

It gets on Door handles and everything 🤢
I know I wee in a jug but I’m not so gross to feel glee at touching a door handle after you.

Wash your hands guys.

Sometimes I dust the bedside table, bathroom shelves etc with clothes im about to put in the wash. Socks, leggings etc

Me too! 😀

Iwannakeepondancing · 25/03/2025 20:13

My DH took the used condom off one night inside a sock and left it on the floor. I obviously forgot and put it in the wash, hung up the washing, put the clean washing away, put said sock on and found a nice clean condom in the bottom of my sock!!

Justrestingmyeyes1 · 25/03/2025 20:13

I’ll clean the floor too if it looks dirty as I shove the washing in. I thought this was just common sense though

Iwannakeepondancing · 25/03/2025 20:18

I also sniff my own pants at the end of the day! I heard Luisa Zissman on her podcast refer to it as her ‘busy day’ and she also does it!!

Aworldofmyown · 25/03/2025 20:21

I wipe back to front after a wee.
Sometimes i use the bread knife and then just pop it back on the holder.
I've had the odd wee in the shower.

I squeeze my dogs (I have 6) anal glands go save a trip to the vet!

I have been shown how to do it properly by my vet who approved of me doing it at home.

unless you do this for fun, it’s not exactly gross as it’s a medical requirement ?

Last two fine, first one will give you an infection!

Always done it, never had a problem! I actually didn't realise i was doing it wrong until my early twenties.

Sorry, I should not have spoken for all.

But really you don't mind shaking a penis hand? What about if a woman had just wiped then shook your hand? Fanny Hand?

I’m actually crying 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Gongpostal · 25/03/2025 20:36

When we are out and I take my grandchildren to the toilet after they have washed their hands I get them to dry them on my jeans! (They are little and don't like the dryers yet) 😂

SantoriniSunrise · 25/03/2025 20:42

Not shower for a whole week, so have to wash my hair in the kitchen sink as I can't bear it looking greasy.

I sometimes pluck my public hair when relaxing in bed, it helps me relax. Then once I’ve got enough, I empty down the loo in my en-suite.

I also pick my nose, sometimes with tweezers.

When I have a cold, I’ve been known to wait until no one’s coming in the path, then hold one nostril and propel the contents of the other on the grass.

I think we’re all pretty weird at times!

I tweeze my pubes sometimes too. So relaxing.

Not disgusting but weird

I sometimes climb the stairs on all 4s when dd isn't home 🤭

I used to do that for ease, especially when I had an accident. My DH likened me to the girl from the Exorcist. 🤣

I had a schoolfriend who had a separate toilet and bathroom and in the toilet (with no basin) was a towel hanging on a hook. I used to feel sick thinking what was on it 🤢

I wonder what was going through the mind of the person who thought it was a good idea to have a separate toilet without a basin.

I once attended a professional course over a long weekend. We were put in university accommodation in an old converted building. On our floor there were separate toilets without basins, separate showers and a small kitchen. The options were to use the toilet, then wash your hands in the shower cubicle (and risk getting splashed, didn’t think most people would do that), wash your hands in the kitchen sink 🤢, or not wash at all 🤢🤢. I promptly left and checked into a hotel for the weekend.
