It Would NEVER happen to a woman.

[Lil_Tink]

I hover because usually its not that clean. Or I use TP or the protective sheet. I always look, dont want to go take care of business in a dirty toilet. And I flush with my foot, im good!

1. The gel super glue doesn't dry very quickly. Liquid stuff dries quickly. The seat could have been glued 5 minutes before and this might have happened.

2. Why do you flush with your foot? You HAVE to wash your hands on the way out, right? And you're going to wash thoroughly with hot water and soap right? So what is the problem? And while I'm at it, don't you realize that the same people that don't wash their hands open up the store doors in the front of the store too... Germs love to travel - you'd never be able to touch any door...

 

[HoneyPooh]

I've never heard of flushing with your foot and now I'm a little disturbed that someones shoe that was just under the toilet has now touched the flusher that I might be flushing next. Yuck!

Hey, how do you "foot flushers" handle the toilets with the button in the middle of the tank? Could be entertaining to watch

Any substance on a toilet--I don't sit on it. Not that it would occur to me that I'd get stuck to the seat..but c'mon people. Look before you sit!

 

[Mister Incredible]

That's why when I have to go, I use the ones in the plumbing section instead of the mens room. They are so much cleaner there because they are new. Of course I get a lot of dirty looks!

 

[christinadei]

I flush with my foot too because once I used my hand (years ago) and water squirted on it. I've never used my hands again. It doesn't happen often, but just the other day when I flushed, water leaked out of the handle. Gross.

And I don't hover, because I have no balance and end up falling on the toilet seat anyway So I get a big wad of toilet paper and wipe the seat, then I lay toilet paper over it (if there are no toilet covers in that bathroom) then I sit and pee.

 

[skiwee1]

I hover when the seat looks dirty and already wet. If it isn't wet and looks "clean" then I sit. If it is dirty or wet then I refuse to wipe it. I just hover. I have never flushed with my foot and have never heard of that either. Yuck!

 

[mickeyfan2]

I told DH that it would NEVER happen to me or to most women because we have learned to "hover" and flush with our feet. Am I right??

Yes
What a story.

I just heard on the news that they are investigating this guy for filing a false claim because apparently he made the same claim last summer about getting glued to a toilet seat at some sports stadium near his home.

Seems kind of freakish that the same thing would happen to the same person. Especially a freakish thing like getting glued to a toilet seat.

 

[MsLeFever]

By then, he was so distraught or whatever, that by the time the rescue squad had him (with the toilet seat removed and still attached to his posterior) on the stretcher, he passed out, heart stopped beating and breathing was so shallow that it was almost unrecognizeable. Or so he says.

Hmm. I'm pretty sure that if your heart has stopped that your breathing must be stopped as well.

Ok, if water is coming out of the handle, it's coming from the tank, which is a nothing more than a water resovoir. Clean water. Unless you were peeing in the tank on the back, then I think that water is OK.

While we're on the subject of toilets....don't you just HATE those huge toilet paper rolls with the super thin 1 ply paper in them that everytime you try to pull some out, it tears into little tiny pieces? You'd think the company would figure out what a waste those are by looking at the floor around the toilet at the mountain of tiny pieces of TP everywhere. UGH!! One of my biggest pet peeves!!

I hate the stoppers!

I guess they are worried the toilet paper bandit will take too much.

I roll is supposed to roll..not rock back and forth. HELLO!!!!

Oh, the stoppers are awful too. Especially when you only can get like 2 squares at a time.

You are right, but it's still gross and I don't want it on my hand!

HaHa!! This reminds of a comedy bit that Ellen did on one of her HBO Comedy Stand up shows. She talks about trying to get the toilet paper to come off in sheets, not long, thin pieces. She says something about wanting toilet paper, not streamers.

I'm also amazed at the number of women who say they take toilet paper and wipe off the seat. If I open a door to a stall and the seat is the least bit wet, I move on to another stall. I am not going to take toilet paper and wipe up someone else's pee. I haven't heard anyone mention putting toilet paper on the seat, then sitting on the seat. I ALWAYS take toilet paper and place it on the seat, (trying very carefully not to actually touch the seat), then I sit down. If they have those paper seat covers I use them. I would never sit directly on the seat, even if it looks clean.

since we've twisted this thread to general toilet ickiness....

When I rent a house I always require a new toilet set. I'll install it but I just want to start "fresh".

I am from CO and on the news this morning there was another claim like this from someone in California.
