I am convinced nobody covers their mouth when coughing nowadays. Every time I go out it seems to happen.
Some bloke started coughing all over the meat aisle in ASDA today hence for this rant ffs! I know it's all sealed, but still!!!
Tried to talk to my mrs about it and she said I get wound up too easily, so this was my second best place to rant. [Post edited 22 Apr 17:03]

Even before Covid, I didn't like people coughing all over me, much less so since. |  |

The Coughing at the Crucible always gets me, it sounds like a doctors waiting room. |  |

Or washing hands to get rid of germs. |  | | |

Went to a performance of King Lear at the National in 1987, had a terrible bout of coughing which I managed to suppress till the donner und blitzen scene, then let rip.
When the cast took their bow at the end, Anthony Hopkins in the lead role gave me a smile & a nod bless him :) |  |

If PR on a match day is broadly representative of the fan base, then the majority on here wouldn't even wash their hands after going for a piss so might not be the place for much (genuine) hygiene sympathy. | |

If you want to restrict the transfer of germs, avoiding unnecessary handshaking or kissing would be a good start. |  |

I never buy the fresh bread or rolls in Waitrose after witnessing a (admittedly yummy) mummy sneeze all over them a few years back.
They don’t even cover them, they just sit there in their baskets and you’re supposed to use the tongs and bag them yourself.
Dread to think what a forensic swab of their freshly baked crusty sourdough would show up by about 3pm. |  |

I once had a girlfriend whose father was a member at a local Memorial Club. In a nice part of the world, and most members were quite civilised.
On a Sunday lunchtime, they’d have roast potatoes on the bar, however on one Sunday the local Health and Safety team came in and took a bowl away for testing. On one potato, they found 12 different urine traces. | |

The appalling habits of people at the all inclusive I have just been to has put me off ever going to another one.
Picking up food with hands, licking fingers, then picking up a set a tongs to share… bloke standing by a chocolate fountain digging into marshmallows with his fork, dipping in and out of the chocolate. Proper rank |  |

And the amount of blokes who don’t wash their hands after going to the bog 
Toilet etiquette was drilled into me. Seat up, wipe in case, seat down. Wash hands. I even have to put the toilet paper on the roll the right way round 🤣 |  |

I was told that same story, but it was about a bowl of peanuts on the bar in the Ipswich Arms pub in the early 90’s | |

Covering your mouth while coughing and carrying hand gel for after using a tissue should be law. The amount of people who sneeze into their hands and just carry on doing whatever they are doing is shocking. |  |

You should go to Asia and share a meal with the chinese. There is a whole new world of poor hygiene with those chop sticks. |  | | |

If I don't have anything to sneeze into, I sneeze into my bent arm. [Post edited 22 Apr 20:50]

question is which is the right way round to you. Should it unravel down the front or down the back. I know which way it should for a lady. | | | |

Anyone who doesn’t put the toilet roll on the correct way round is basically a psychopath. |  |

I can vouch for this, my ex wife used to hang the bog roll so it was facing the wall rather than the person needing to declag their ringpiece.
I should add my ex wife whilst fit is also bat sh1t crazy. [Post edited 22 Apr 21:15]

I’m not saying that sounds far fetched .. but that sounds far fetched. |  | | |

I have met a couple of guys who admit that they wash their hands BEFORE taking a pee, but not after. In what world does that make sense???? |  | | |

There's only one right way. Paper hanging down the front. That's the way hotels do it. | | | |

Some people are odd. Although this thread does remind of the anecdote in Sir Bobby's autobiography where he pulled Mr Cobbold up on not washing his hands after having a slash. Telling him where I went to school we were taught to wash our hands after having a Pee, to which Cobbold replied where I went to school we were taught to not piss on our hands! | | | |

But is the little triangle essential? | |

I work with probably 90% Indians… I watch them blow their noses (in the bathrooms) into their hands, and eat with no cutlery with that very same hand…
Of course they wash their hands, but I still gag seeing it | |

My good lady works in a shop in Brightlingsea out of a group of four it’s the only one when they asked the receptionists if they wanted the screen to stay up they said they did.
Thing is if the said receptionists are sitting down and the patients are standing up,they do get coughed over.
I was in my local Tescos the other day,and this woman I’m sure she waited until I was near enough level with her just coughed straight into my face 🥵 |  |
