A friend of mine had to fly out of state for a family emergency nearly two weeks ago and I'm taking care of his cat.

He is a bachelor, and I'm hoping his house is disgusting because he had to leave with no notice. There are dirty dishes everywhere and the bathroom... unspeakable.

Today I couldn't take it anymore, so I'm here at his house cleaning a bit (and using his wifi :-)). I've got the kitchen done and was going to move on to the bathroom but...

a. Do most men just pee with no great concern for where it's going? (The hubs one redeeming quality is that I have never had to clean up his pee once in 11 years of marriage.)

b. Do men living on their own ever clean their bathrooms?

c. If I clean it, will he notice or appreciate it? (I'm going to clean it either way, I have to pee myself and can't use it the way it is!)

This is serious stuff, if you report me I'll be mad.

    A. My old roommate and I would just use the window that looked out over the bus stop.

    B. Yes, why do you think guys have extra fuel cans?

    C. He'll notice, he won't know where anything is anymore and he'll have to re-mark his territory for fear other bachelor males may attempt to claim it as their own.

    Thank you sir, your input was quite helpful.

    d. Why are there bags of Frito chips under the kitchen sink with the cleaning supplies?

    Oh, that's where they age well. Can't have a decent Frito pie without a little age flavor on em, like a cured meat. Proximity to chlorine and ammonia speeds the process.

    All I have to say...is I've seen some seriously gross stuff in women's bathrooms.

    Edit: Typo!

    I have seen worse bachelor pods than this. I was guilty of this stuff at much smaller scale because I was traveling 5-6 days and didn't bother for 4 or 5 weeks. I had to clean up with a mask and would never ever do that again.

    This guy sounds like a pig. If I ever do pee ( it happens) around the rim, I clean it. Like put on latex gloves and bust out the scrubbing bubbles stuff.

    No, he won't notice. His definition is of clean is what it looks like now. Sounds like a person that cleaning is at the bottom of his list and doesn't care about what his house looks like...

    Make him clean, he needs to learn to clean up his own mess.

    Throw those chips away, please! The thought of him eating chips that have been under the sink is grossing me out. I can understand having a little clutter here and there, but to lazily stash food where it doesn't belong? Gross.

    I bet the guy will be butt hurt about it and get pissed off. Not many guys like to take criticism from women.

    I clean at my work and I've seen pee on the top of the urinal if that answers that question...

    ...but how's the kitty doing? I mean if the environment is toxic is it possible that the kitty is infected? This entire problem could be deeper than just cleaning up the bathroom and freetos underneath the kitchen sink. If that poor little kitty is living in such filth it's possible that other issues are affecting it. Now, far be it from me to suggest that you take the welfare of some other poor slobs pets to heart but if there is an ounce of concern for this furry little critter you might want to have a local vet give that kitty a once over and make certain that none of this funk has affected the poor helpless little feline.

    Poor kitty.

    Yeah people who don't live together, and aren't in a relationship can't make each other clean their own houses.

    My husband once told me he didn't know how to clean a bathroom. :huh:

    He's right you know?

    People just can't.
    ...when they just don't.

    ...and sometimes when even if they happen too.

    There is a difference between cleaning a dump and keeping things tidy. LOL.

    Not uncommon for me to walk into the work men's room and see a booger wiped on the wall near the urinals. Or on the door in the stall. :sick:

    Want to know somethin'? I'll tell you anyways, the pee didn't actually bother me as much as the curly, black pubes stuck all over...

    Edit to add that it makes me feel all quivery inside... And to state that I could never clean a public bathroom.

    Ok, nobody has mentioned the cat!? I was laughing reading the thread then had to question "why did she go over there again"? With the state of his bathroom I can't imagine the cat's was any better, but I'll cross my fingers. Not much is worse than a litter box that isn't kept clean.

    Throw his food away because it isn't stored where you would store it? That's a bit extreme IMO.

    Really, extreme? She said he's keeping a bad of chips underneath a dirty sink where the cleaning supplies are kept. That's not extreme, that's being smart....

    When we were dating, my husband lived with two other bachelors. The counters were so gross the glasses were literally stuck and I had to wrap a warm wet cloth around the base to get them off. I opened the freezer and came face to face with a decapitated owl. Sitting there. Body next to the head. And it was staring at me... I do not want to consider what it says about me that I married him but I can tell you he's been worth it. ;)

    ETA: that I married my husband, not the owl.

    Yes. A woman will eventually clean it for us.

    b. Do men living on their own ever clean their bathrooms?

    No. A woman will eventually clean it for us.

    c. If I clean it, will he notice or appreciate it? (I'm going to clean it either way, I have to pee myself and can't use it the way it is!)

    Yes, he'll notice it. Because a woman cleaned it for him.

    If I could get my 7 year old to understand that "missing" the bowl isn't funny, I will consider life a win and die happy...
