Do you have your own towel?

[SexyGreyFox]

A little debate that has come up.
There's quite a few young people in the house, age 22 to 32, and they are debating using towels in the bathroom.
Some of them just pick a towel up but others have their own individual towels.
I'm pretty sure when I lived at my parents we just picked up what towel was there but in my house we have our own.
It's something I've never thought about but apparently I use the black towels and nobody else does, my wife has red and my eldest uses white.
My eldest finds it abhorrent that she could be wiping her bits when I've wiped my bits with the same towel.

Over to you OCUK.

I just look at the state of dust under your desk and nothing surprises me.

How did you fail to see I use the black towels and nobody else does?
Wake up.

However talking about the old days back in late 50s early 60s we had a tin bath in front of the fire.
Every Sunday it was filled up once, I got in first and when I'd finished my Mum would get in and we she had finished my Dad got in.
Before that I got washed standing up in the sink.

I can't believe how many dirty buggers on here share a hand towel
You've just done a big number two, washed your hands, dried and then let somebody else use the hand towel.

If it were standard, energy and water use in the UK would be twice what it is now. And if it were standard worldwide, we'd probably need another two Earths.

Good point, never thought of that.
All hail the dirty buggers.

OP I don't know how old you are, but you really shouldn't have to be asking this, if you'd like me to give you the long winded fecal bacteria explanation then by all means ask. But you won't like the answer.

TLDR

Don't share a towel unless you want someones bunghole bacteria all over you.

Good day.

So why do you think I've asked the question or didn't you bother to read it - tut tut.
If you've bothered to read the rest of the thread you will see that many posters on here are basically dirty buggers.

Oh, and I used to give lessons at the hospital I work at in hand washing techniques & bacteria.
I even won a Nursing Times Award for an Aseptic Techniques tutorial DVD.

Please read next time.

EVERYONE on here is a dirty bugger - If you have touched something taht someone else has touched, like a door handle or a phone or a train seat or anything, you will be carrying their bacteria.

So until the world is peppered with little bottles and dispensers of alcohol gel and foam everywhere, I guess you'll just have to rely on your immune system.

Your post is 190, read 189

Yeah, I did... I'm guessing you're an ICNS or something... still wondering what point you're trying to make...

Because you quoted me and obviously didn't read what I'd wrote otherwise you wouldn't have posted it.

 

[SexyGreyFox]

So you have professionally taught people how to wash their hands, but cannot bath/shower with enough skill to clean your own body properly?

How have you worked that out from my OP?
Weird.

Pretty sure I wrote somewhere that I use the black towels and I use a separate hand towel.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'll give you some help since you're incapable of reading

Shame on you

 

[SexyGreyFox]

Thanks for the apology

So why would the towel (in quote A) be full of letterbox ammo if you are as good as you say you are (in quote B) at washing your hands?

Because even though I may wash my hands correctly I can't trust other people to do the same.

 

[SexyGreyFox]

This might explain why people specifically avoid using your black towels!

I use shampoo.
What's the point of using soap when I've already got shampoo on my head?

I haven't got a bath, I had it ripped out in 2008 and replaced with a shower.
My daughters weren't happy at the time but soon got used to it.
