Source of the post You can probably spot them by the way they're opening the bathroom door to leave with a paper towel in their hand.
This used to irk me as well. However, I've witnessed numerous people take a leak and go right out the door. Forgive me for not wanting to shake hands with somebody else's beef, so I'll use the towel now.

Ours has a trash can right outside the door. Yup, I’m paper towel guy. You’d be too if you saw some of these guys not washing their hands.

When you are first in line at a red light and it turns green and the person behind you taps the horn .01357 seconds after it turns green. To me that's just an invitation to take my time and depending on the duration of the honk, possibly sit there until it turns red again.

Speaking of urinal etiquette.

We use a public restroom in our building; other spaces in our building include an ENT doctor and a Penn Medicine location, so as you can imagine, there are a lot of fogeys that come in and out of the building.

Like always seems to happen, I go to the one urinal in the bathroom and there is piss all over the floor. A small puddle that actually was starting to seep under the first stall wall.

For ****'s sake, if you are unable to hit a urinal, you should be euthanized. Or go sit down to pee.

The guy that thinks they're going to catch AIDS walking from the urinal to the sink to wash their hands. You can probably spot them by the way they're opening the bathroom door to leave with a paper towel in their hand.

Or, standing in the hallway with a dirty paper towel in their hand.
Hah, I flush with my elbow and then wash and then use a paper towel to open the door. I’m AIDS free! Now who’s crazy?!?!

That was skin cancer related. Not fecal material related.

I know that as I grow older, I'm supposed to be less patient/tolerant with the youth, but I find myself growing less and less patient with old people. First off, get off the f*cking road. I understand you've lived a long life, so you don't give a sh*t, but I still have at least 4 more decades that I'd like to get out of this life, so please stop driving.

Secondly, stop standing in the middle of doorways/grocery store aisles and talking to your other old people friends. Go find somewhere out of the way to discuss the good ole days. Some of us have grocery shopping to do so we can get home and do the other sh*t we have to do at home to prep for the week. I know in your day, you were able to have a single income household and raise a family, so your wife had all the time in the freaking world to do those chores, but my wife and I have 2 days to pack in as much family time as possible AND do all those chores for the week so that our house doesn't fall apart.

In NYC you best be rolling soon as the opposite light turns yellow or they’re gonna toot.

I hate people who dilly dally on turn arrows. When I'm way back there in the line trying to make a light and can count a 3+ second gap between cars making the turn it makes my blood boil.

I'm going to take a 5 iron to the window of the next dumb NTP66 who waits until the end of the right turn only lane on the Liberty Bridge to try to merge left.
