    LMAO! I lay toilet paper. I hate the annoying flappy things! I always rip it in two when I pull out the middle :blushing:

    Studies show that the first stall as soon as you walk in is the least used...so I always use first stall...and you gotta hover man. And you flush with your foot..I refuse to touch anything!

    I lay it down! I layer that ish! Seriously. It's soooo gross. If I'm able to, I TRY super hard to hold it in. I know that's not good either, but I'm skeevy of public bathrooms in general. :blushing:

    Don't bother with the paper or covers, I squat/hover and don't touch anything (I flush with paper covering my hand, open doors with paper etc) , and never go #2 in a public restroom :)

    I sit on the toilet. Like a normal person. I have yet to get any infection or disease. Silly people.

    I thought you were SUPPOSED TO flush with your foot. That's why they make it a little kick-bar thing. no?

    No, I am worse. I wet and soap up a paper towel, clean the seat, then dry it before squatting down and making cheek to toilet contact. Anything touched by another human's *kitten* is loathsome to me.

    Anytime I hear someone say they "hover" I think about a very pregnant Jenna Fischer making a public plea on the tonight show for everyone not to hover because it gets all over the seat.. she said everyone should just wipe it off and sit on it, or use a seat cover.. but pregnant woman can't hover and sometimes she doesn't even have time to wipe the seat and sat in urine once. :laugh:

    Moving along.. I just wipe the seat and sit, or occasionally use a cover. Then I flush normally, I'm about to go wash my hands anyway.. so I don't see why not.

    You touch nastier things on a daily basis.. shopping carts at Wal Mart, anyone??

    I sit but I use the private handicrapper. That way, when I feel the subtle warmth of the previous occupant, I feel closer to them.

    I never use either...and I never got any rare or communicable diseases from it.

    From Robert Klein...

    Dont EVER sit on a public toilet seat....things jump off of it! Public toilet seats are the WORST things in the world...WWII was created by a public toilet seat. SQUAT, HOVER, use someone ELSE'S *kitten* if you have to!! Don't EVER touch a public toilet seat!!!

    I put down toilet paper/toilet seat cover AND I squat. I despise public bathrooms.

    Edited to add a word so that the sentence would make sense.

    I will second this. I do enough squats during my workouts thank you. Besides you're just sitting... it's not as if people are asking you to lick the toilet seat! And like someone else said, you're going to go wash your hands anyway, so no big deal.
    Hover. Or if I know I'm gonna be a while, I will "set up camp"

    Sounds interesting... what's considered camping in a public washroom...

    Man.. That makes sense.

    I use the cleaning wipes at Walmart / Target. There is fecal on those handles!

    Lay seat covers and still hover.

    Ok I lied. I lay seat covers and I "try" to not sit but I'm not good at squatting over the toilet.

    Dude, there's fecal matter every where. On the keyboard you're typing on, and the desk at your work, on the door handle to your office. Everywhere.

    Agreed! Although I do sometimes use a napkin to pull open the door handle on the way out, so perhaps I'm conflicted :wink:
