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

If it was disgusting in my eyes, I wouldn't do it.

But people at the place I used to work at before having the kids gave me grief for not washing my hands after a wazz (i wash them after a poo obviously)

There are people who don't wash at all after using the toilet. So if you don't wash yours you're picking up literal shit from the touch points from other people before getting your dinner. You'll pick it up from the flush and the lock before you even get to a sink anyway.

Yum.

Not disgusting but weird

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

You’re not alone in doing that 😂

I do that! That's normal... no?

No, wiping toothpaste all over a towel is skanky (yes, I know that's what this thread is about...). I splash my mouth and face with clean water from the tap to get any toothpaste off, then dry with a towel if necessary. Most times I don't bother though, I just let let it air dry, it's only a bit of water.

Pick my nose and ears
Farting
Masturbating
Farting while masturbating
Wearing same knickers for more than one day

Remember never use unsealed cups in hotels. They use the same towel they clean the whole bathroom with to clean / dry the cups 🤢🤢

You’ve never seen the stacks of clean glasses and cups on the housekeeping trolleys then?

So a shared work bathroom and you didnt wash your hands after a wee?

So you flushed the chain and touched the lock on a shared bathroom ?

Thats rank!!!

Not as rank as you touching your keyboard, security pass, mouse etc. Really, it's quite quaint to regard a toilet and - gasp - a lock as the root of All That is Rank and Filthy when your regular office stuff is exponentially Ranker

In some hotels yes and in others no. Also had a friend who worked in a holiday inn and they used to rinse and wipe 🤢

When I'm alone and I burp, I say burp as I'm burping.
I'm 51. It's revolting. Blush

A relative used to burp out entire sentences. As a child I found it hysterical.

ChocolatesAndRainbows · 25/03/2025 19:09

Omg that's disgusting..but I'd expect no less from someone who calls a wee a wazz...

So I'm not the only one who thought that meant "pleasuring oneself"? 😕

LurcherMumma · 25/03/2025 19:25

@catin8oot5 a real live cat???

I do picky nose of it's a big uncomfortable one and shamed to say I usually flick it away.

Also squeezing spots/blackheads or watching videos of said squeezing

Glitchymn1 · 25/03/2025 19:27

Weird or dirty….
I hate to break it your ladies but not all women wash their hands after the loo either.
Once when I was in uni a friend emerged from the bathroom and I noticed blood on her hand- and said what’s that…yep period blood down the index finger. Ok students have low standards!
In the work restroom, senior manager emerges from toilet, straight out the exit (I was drying my hands in tissue).
She bakes cakes for the office too- I dread to think.

I talk to myself- a lot 🙊😆

LurcherMumma · 25/03/2025 19:27

Also re wear my sweaty workout clothes but I couldn't keep up with the washing otherwise.

EmmaDilemma5 · 25/03/2025 19:28

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!

You already have those bacteria on your own body.

My hands don’t have the same microbiota as a penis.

(Discretely) wee outdoors if I'm caught short. Sometimes I just suddenly have to go... I'm often with walkers / cyclists / runners etc who accept a nature wee is part of life if you're out and about for hours... but I know MN thinks this is horrific!!

I call it a wild wee. It’s strangely liberating!

kungfoofighting · 25/03/2025 19:30

ShinyPebble32 · 25/03/2025 19:10

So many things! One of the worst is a ‘jug piss’ - I sometimes wee in the Pyrex jug to see how much in ml I’ve produced, and check the colour, clarity etc.
I once (god knows why) confessed this to my DH, and instead of being horrified and leaving me instantly he turned it into some kind of competition and saved up his wee for 18 hours or so to produce a 2 pint badboy, smashing any PB I’ve held before or since. I have a picture of him posing with it proudly somewhere 🤣

I won’t even share a glass of water with my lot. In or out of me 🤣

Same. Backwash 🤮🤮🤮 kids are the worst I just couldn’t do it.

UndermyShoeJoe · 25/03/2025 19:39

How do you pick a nose with tweezers. I’d be worried I’d stab myself.

Itsabeautifulthing · 25/03/2025 19:39

I used to LOVE picking my kids noses when they were babies 🤣 couldn't do it now though 🤢 but when they were babies it was my favorite 🤣
