Does it annoy you when...

My advice:don't sweat the small stuff-please!

It's not good to hold it in.If you have to go,you have to go!What's your 'policy' when you're at a friend's house and have to go?

Mind you,at work,the toilet is right next to the kitchenette unit.Sometimes the smell can make me lose my appetite...a very badly thought out layout.:(

The removal man did a horrendously stinky poo in our downstairs loo within an hour of us getting the key to the house.

I was the one that had to do that in our house, unfortunately we hadn't yet unpacked the toilet paper :eek:

I carry a mini body spray in case there is no way to clean the air so I don't leave any bad smells behind.

Ditto. I have IBS and sometime need to use the loo on the train so I carry one in my bag at all times.

I did used to take it to the loo at work (wrapped up in a carrier bag) but then it looked like I'd been to the shop or like I was taking an early lunch :rotfl:

I get more annoyed at people putting their make up on in the loo when I need to poo. I'm torn between embarrassment and thinking 'take that you selfish !!!!!!!'

Midwife tip - try breathing through your mouth xx

I don't have an aversion to poo, I also share my home with 4 blokes, I've smelt, seen and dealt with it all!! I just get annoyed that some adults are still mystified by their own bowels and the sight of any toilet is enough to trigger a motion! Our youngest was like this for a while, everywhere we went he'd suddenly decide he 'needed' a poo - out for a meal, the cinema, friends' houses. This was when he was about 5 or 6, thankfully, he grew out of it a long time ago.

Actually, I probably do have an aversion to poo, I've been known to throw the boys shoes away rather than clean dog mess off them. I would never have a dog or a cat as a pet as I'd have to clean up after them.

Agreed. If it annoys you when someone uses a toilet for what it's for - please don't visit a care home post meal time, especially if the person you're visiting is bedbound or unable to get to the toilet and has to go on a commode in their room!

Cooor, some of the corkers from my grandad.... :rotfl: :rotfl:

(and I say it as someone who has an excessively strong retch reaction - bad smells and the like - if they hit me right then I'm dry retching and can't do a thing to hide it!)

For an offensive loo, you could try an old trick - light a match in the room with the offending smell - apparently the gases are dispersed by the flame! (I've never tried this - so could be an old boys' tale!)

My nan did this whenever her dog farted.

Sorry, I know it's not meant to be funny but this thread really made me chuckle.
