Bathroom habits

[FreakSheet]

I'm shocked! No one has mentioned "ya know... IN THE BATHROOM!" yet!

... Ya know... IN THE BATHROOM!

 

[Hitokiri_Gensai]

i always shave my legs while sitting on the toilet. COVER CLOSED thank you.

 

[CrystalShadow]

Got to put the lid on the loo down when flushing it.

I do that to prevent escaping toilet water and the like. It's not weird it's sound logic.

In public toilets that look especially disgusting I'll put toilet paper on the seat, but if you want really weird habits ask the french about their service stations. In some places, the women don't have toilets, they have holes, I didn't use these for the irrational fear of falling in.

I never noticed that one in france, but it's the standard for 'toilets' in large parts of asia.

Good luck trying to find an actual toilet. You basically only get those in expensive places that are literally only used by western tourists.

Even japan still has the 'hole in the ground' toilets in some places, even though they seem quite fond of toilet seats with gadgetry the likes of which you'd never see anywhere around here...

Of course, that doesn't quite match the weirdness some men's toilets can have:

Like this one:

http://www.smh.com.au/travel/travel-news/hotel-urinal-makes-a-splash-on-world-top-10-list-20101104-17em5.html - Where you have a one-way mirror, so you can see out from the toilet, but people can't see in.

(Though it'd leave me feeling decidedly exposed.)

Then there was the toilet that seemed to have a waterfall built into a glass wall, and more than one in high-rise buildings where you'd better hope you're not afraid of heights.

Although... It has to be said most of these really weird toilet features are in men's toilets.

Then again, going back to japan, there's also stuff like this:

(And wierder/scarier.)

And...

Special mention has to go to the handful of female urinals that exist around the world.
(Though I can't quite find a suitable example right now.)

Of course, all of that's just... Slightly off-topic. Then again, I don't really have many specific toilet habits of my own...

Similar to the OP I can not crap with my pants and boxers around my ankles.Other than that not much else that would be considered weird.

Hmm my strange habits include:

1) After taking a poo I will not sit for about 5 minutes. I really don't know why this is, I just have a strong urge not to sit.

2) I tend to enjoy stopping and starting the stream while standing at the urinal

3) If it is a particularly long poo (time wise not length) I will sort my wallet and get rid of all the unneeded business cards and crap (no pun intended)

4) I stand up to wipe and inspect the paper after each go

I think this is about all I care do divulge at this point

I do this, too.
How else can you tell when you're done?

 

[teqrevisited]

I usually put down a sheet or two to stop getting splashed if I sit down. And I refuse to sit down in a public toilet. The thought sickens me. I don't like to waste time in there either. I just go in, go and get gone. Could never understand anyone taking any longer than 2 minutes.

 

[EL1TE 50LD1ER]

I always do this weird neck twitch thing when im finished pissing.
I can't take a shit when listening to loud music.
and this too:

[shadyh8er]

I look down in the toilet before I flush. George Carlin put it best: that thing just came out of me! What was it that was once inside of me and is now out?

 

[Blueruler182]

Whenever I'm alone with a mirror I have to do this weird little smile and crazy eyes. It's almost like the trollface smile, now that I think of it.

 

[I_Sinanju _I]

I times when I don't sleep I go into the bathroom, put my back towards the mirror and Play a handheld game in the reflection.

After that I sit in the shower doing absolutely nothing.

 

[Robert632]

I always have to pee before taking a shower, then after I have to take a dump. Otherwise I'm fairly normal in a bathroom.

This gives a whole new meaning to your user name.

You do have a point though.

2 minutes? Holy shit.

I take longer than 5 doing the actual dumping..

 

[RevRaptor]

I always use toilet paper to clean pee of my little solider, shaking it off just doesn't cut it for me gotta be bone dry or I feel uncomfortable and I always tear off the first piece of loo paper and drop it in the bowl. Other than that I always use as little paper as possible just don't wanta use that first piece.

 

[TriggerOnly]

When I was younger, I could never go in a public place. I was so scared I had terrible anxiety for years and years, to the point I could not go to school any more. I left in grade 7 (Australia) it and a combination's of other things really messed up my education . I ended up going to a psychologists for other problems funny enough and he helped me get over it a bit.

Even now it still is the cause of a lot of my anxiety but if I need to I will. To make things worse my anxiety makes my gut mess up and its not a very clean visits.

Also the naked thing, but I don't do that in public. Just at home, were I am safe.

My only habit is having my bathroom spotless - ALWAYS! I'm such a neat freak.

 

[WolfThomas]

I usually have to depants when at home crapping. Also I can take a dump in pretty much any toilet as long as there is paper. I have no hang-up about public toilets, though I do wipe the seat once or twice before sitting down.

I really find crapping easier with something to read. Also I have to have a morning dump, it's essential. Back when I had some very early mornings (having to been on the wards by 7am) I would actually took my morning coffee and laptop into the ensuite I had, in the house I was staying in. It had a bench to the side of the toilet that I could rest them on, I'd spend ten minutes convincing my bowels to open as I read the news. My friends think that was weird but it was the only way to get everything done in an orderly fashion. For the record I'd finish the coffee before I'd start and not handle my laptop until I'd washed my hands.

 

[thylasos]

I read a book or newspaper, like a lot of people. I think that's the only vaguely idiosyncratic thing about my bathroom routine.

 

[thylasos]

i give you a simple solution by the french, it's called a beday and most hotels in france have them (and a fair few in europe)

Bidet, and to be fair you'll find them in a lot of British homes too.
