At least half of men don’t wash their hands before leaving a public restroom. Literally everything is covered in dick stuff. Source: 30+ years of using public restrooms as a male.

    On average, there are more fecal bacteria on your phone screen than on a public toilet seat.
    Also, when you flush the toilet after taking a shit, fecal material will get sprayed on literally every surface in the bathroom.
    Yes, your toothbrush, too.

      So does that mean people who don’t close the lid before flushing prefer the taste of shit in their mouth?

      It doesn’t help that people don’t tend to clean their phones like they do their toilet, but will take their phone into the water closet anyhow.

        People don’t clean their phones? I clean mine every time I clean my glasses. If the glasses are dirty, it’s a safe bet the phone could use a rub down with some isopropyl on a Kimwipe.

        Unrelated, if you wear glasses and haven’t used Kimwipes to clean them you are missing out. Soap and water, isopropyl on Kimwipe, dry Kimwipe.
