What disgusting thing do you do?

[eqpi4t2hbsnktd]

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

There’s a microbiologist (I think) on TikTok who swabs things on request then shows the results. A towel that’s been used to dry someone with after showering for a week had no more germs than the freshly laundered towel he swabbed to compare the results with, so not disgusting at all.

I can't belive no one mentioned this already so probably I am one of the most disgusting ones :-) I pee in the shower (while showering obviously not all the time lol)

Well that sounds like a good idea actually

I was disappointed in the misandry too, it’s supposed to be a light hearted thread, would be nice to just have that without people people getting into man-bashing 🤷🏼‍♀️

I periodically take my earrings out to clean them but have a good sniff of them first.
I pick my nose, I love a good big crusty one with a trail of snot behind it.
I clean my ears with hair grips , can’t trust a cotton bud, the ends fall off. I had a very embarrassing trip to A&E with one stuck in my ear.
I watch YouTube videos of people popping spots (pearl acne is my favourite).
I let the dog lick my feet.
OMG I’m gross!! 🤢

Don't you flush the chain and unlock the door before washing hands anyway?

That is actually very nice of you to do that

You're not supposed to rinse your mouth after brushing

@mumofoneAlonebutokay Oh I used to climb the stairs on all fours ALL the time. I now live in a Bungalow and had forgotten that I used to do this!

I never use anyone else’s sponge after joey on friends said “what’s the first thing you wash and the last thing I wash” 🤣

I'd give you grief for that.
Utterly disgusting

I genuinely thought I'd be alone 😄, it's made me feel better

They say that brushing your teeth lowers the risk of heart attacks but it’s your life.

I’m sure others have said this but…takes deep breath…that’s different! People flush the loo after they’ve just done a shit and you touch that flush and then don’t wash your hands. It’s kind of a social contract that if we’ve all washed our hands those shit germs off the flush, taps etc will not end up on the keyboards and door handles! Essentially D&V type bugs come from bits of poo getting in your mouth because of poor hand hygiene after going to the toilet. This includes after a wee!

But you also touch handles that other people have touched after having a shit and wiping their arse. It's not just about your willy (which is disgusting to not wash your hands after touching that) but about everything else in the toilet that is covered in germs.

I also sometimes use the dirty washing to mop up spills in the kitchen if it’s waiting by the washer. Saves dirtying a tee towel/cloth so I can see the logic of the nose blow.

Picking my nose (and sometimes eating it). Spit on floors to clean sometimes (I then spray), judt because I remember hearing they did it in Ye Olden times. It’s actually a good stain remover …

I didn’t know fluoride could bleach towels, this explains a few mysterious stains on my towels!

I’ve done this my whole life. Generally when I detect even the smallest bit of dry skin, but once started I can’t stop. I don’t like the bleeding though, that’s generally when I feel really silly for not controlling myself and slather on a load of lip balm!

I am the same with athletes foot. I have only had it once but I let it go on for too long as I loved scratching at my toes. I would love to have it again 😆

I do this now after doing my back in last year 🙄

Interesting, didn’t know that! In my annual medical they check all the markers for various things including heart disease, stroke, diabetes etc and mine are all nigh on zero. If you did it every day perhaps…

Oh, sorry to hear about your back

It should be a fun bit of whimsy, not a necessity x

i generally do wash my hands after a tinkle but why is it so compulsory? my hand doesn’t ever touch wee or fanny!

Isn’t this what a towel is for?
