Shout out to S shaped hallway with no doors 😭you’re the real mvp
Now don’t say that, we’re gonna have touchless doors that don’t work for dark skinned folks and too excited to open for white people passing by
This reminds me of a sign I saw at a restaurant bathroom recently.
There are plenty of ways to make this better. Most of it’s theater because there’s nothing really wrong with touching the door, but some of the ways are not even expensive to make it comfortable for germaphobes.
Single bathroom doors always swing out
Copper-plate the handles
If you have to swing in, add a foot handle.
The only reason touching doorknobs is gross is because people don’t wash their hands.
Unless you’re willing to opt in to some kinda bathroom panopticon that locks the bathroom until everyone trying to leave has properly washed their hands, it’s probably best to just avoid a knobbed door.
Those same people are touching everything else in the store/world. The employees have touched every item on the floor. half of those don’t wash their hands. The door only feels gross because you have no doubt.
Plenty of stuff wrong with touching the door, considering how many people don’t wash their hands…
What else do they touch? How many are employees? The door is only gross because you know it’s being touched. EVERYTHING is being touched, and something like 50% of people don’t wash their hands properly or at all.
Yeah that’s why you don’t touch other stuff either, because it’s all gross. But at least if you go to the bathroom to wash your hands, you should be able to like eat your lunch after
And lazy shits who leave paper towels on the floor by the door.
There is some blame on the establishment for not providing a garbage by the door to alleviate this issue. However, if it was provided and people are still trashy, I guess it is what it is.
Chop your hands off, germ phobia problem solved.
This thread renforces my theory that hygienism is a bastard of capitalism. So much useless worries but in the same time so lucrative
Touchless sinks are the worst fucking tech ever. Shit never works, and when it does, it never gives you enough water to get a good hand wash
And it never gives you warm water
Even just a button with a timer you can mash is better
I lift my leg up and use the bottom of my shoe. You’re welcome.
Geez I guess some people never go outside into the world of germs
Not to mention if everyone washed their hands properly, that door handle is clean.
Have you met people? There’s stupid fucks out there who take pride in being disgusting assholes who don’t wash their hands.
There were people going maskless during covid because they already caught covid and were only interested in protecting themselves.
There were people that raged at others wearing masks because they felt entitled to see their faces or some stupid shit.
It reminded them of their StankBreath
Grab the handle with your butt cheeks. it’s a talent/skill you can hone
good thing i’m drop ball world champion then
I use my scrotum like an oven mitt
Auspicious
I personally use my dick to whip it like Indiana Jones.
i didn’t know we had someone blessed by the tanuki in our midst
Elbow for the doors and whatever I’m wearing for drying.

Meh, 5 second rule applies here.
There is more shit on that handle than a toilet seat.
I’ve had contamination OCD for the majority of my life, and this shit has been torture for me.
I’ve been trying to get a ADA accommodation to work from home because my job is in software, but the bastards over at HR think that clorox wipes and a dedicated cube will solve this shit. It’s irritating as fuck that nobody in charge seems capable of piecing basic hygiene together.
Sounds like someone needs a motivational metaphor to make HR feel what it’s like to sit in a very uncomfortable situation, such as a stinkbomb in their office.
Raw fish in the air ducts is IMO a better choice
LOLNEIN has this catchy song about exactly that…
