Flushing urinals with your feet
 

So I was just upstairs taking a leak, next to a guy one urinal over. Upon conclusion of his micturition, he lifted up his foot and kicked the handle to flush the urinal. I was pretty taken aback by this and started speculating as to why he would have done it. Is it some kind of crazy germ phobia thing? Is it for increased efficiency so he can use his hands to zip up while flushing and save valuable deciseconds?

More importantly, how many of you out in OOT land do this? If you do, please post below with your reasons.

I've been known to wash my hands afterwards.

Sometimes I do this, but only in really disgusting bathrooms, places like dive bars where there's [censored] on the walls or whatever. I feel kinda bad when I do because I figure that there's nastiness on the bathroom floor, which goes on my show, which I then put on the handle, and the next person will presumably then touch the handle. But if the bathroom is that gross, the next person is probably the reason why, so I only feel a little bad.

Don't know if I've ever done it with another person in the bathroom, though.

haha yeah I was thinking of toilets for some reason, who flushes a urinal?

Re: Flushing urinals with your feet
 

i don't do it on urinals because i'm not that flexible. i do it on toilets in stalls. i'm not a germaphobe. there is just pee all over the flushing handles and i don't like touching it.

Haha - but seriously alot of guys on my floor do not flush the urinal I've noticed (I work at a big corporation). Why is that? Disgusting.

Also isn't the urinal flush lever really high? How the hell do you reach that with your foot?
