Interview

Over the course of thousands of years, our hygiene habits have improved to suppress outbreaks of diseases and protect our health. However, a handful of them somehow survived and have become quite the norm, despite being pretty gross.

People in the AskReddit community were discussing such examples in hopes that others would give them up. Scroll down to find them, and be sure to let us know if you agree or disagree with them!

While you're at it, don't forget to check out a conversation with redditor, who started this interesting discussion in the first place.

The redditor who started this thread was inspired to spark this discussion online when their partner noticed something gross they did by accident.

"I sneezed and wiped some snot on my sleeve, my wife found it disgusting and I thought it was normal," they share.

Fortunately, the Reddit user tells us that this was the only instance that their habits were found to be gross by others.

When it comes to their own tolerance for gross things, they say that not much phases them. "I’m pretty hard to gross out."

No one is safe from other people’s questionable habits, especially not in the office. Online printing company Instantprint surveyed 1,000 UK employees to uncover the hidden truth about coworkers grossest habits.

It was found that more than 5% of Brits admitted to cleaning their computers or work areas yearly or never at all. Meanwhile, 1 in 10 employees never wash their mug, water bottle, or glassware when enjoying a beverage of their choice. Either they have an office cleaner who does it for them, or they feel content being surrounded by some serious crumbs, dust, stains, and bacteria.

Only 16% of respondents revealed that they wash their hands regularly at the office, and a whopping 19% confessed to rinsing them solely after using the bathroom. It’s worth being cautious about who you shake hands with!

When it comes to other gross workplace habits, almost a quarter admitted to taking off their shoes at work. And over 30% of Brits confessed to eating something from the back of the fridge that was way past its use-by date.

30 People Share Disgusting Things People Don’t Realize Are Very Gross Maybe not “normal” but I am repulsed by the smell created by clothing not properly drying. The smell is on clothing that sat in the washer machine too long. Or dish towels and bathroom towels that dried without being spread out.

I smell it on people from down the isle in stores. And don’t get me started on drying my hands in someone’s bathroom and finding out the smell is lingering on my hands now.

Hi, glad you swung by! My name is Austėja, and I’m a writer at Bored Panda. With a degree in English philology, I’m interested in all aspects of language. Being fresh out of university, my mission is to master the art of writing and add my unique touch to every personal story and uplifting article we publish. In my time here, I’ve covered some fun topics such as scrungy cats and pareidolia, as well as more serious ones about mental health and relationship hiccups. When I’m not on my laptop, you’ll probably find me devouring pastries, especially croissants, paired with a soothing cup of tea. Sunsets, the sea, and swimming are some of my favorite things.

My ex would use the same drinking glass for DAYS AT A TIME. And he has oily skin texture, so the glass would get literally BLEARY with skin oils on the first day. It would go from clear-glass to literally opaque with skin-oil. And don't even get me started on how NASTY the glass's rim looked from his lips touching it over and over. I cannot FATHOM how he could use that glass day after day without horking the second he went to drink from it. I'd sometimes grab the glass surreptitiously and I'd wash it. I sometimes gagged just from TOUCHING the glass while washing it. And - for years his Brita pitcher used to look NASTY filthy (skin oils, food smudges, grease, dust, dirt, etc.) - I would call it his "cholera pitcher" and he'd get all pissed off. When we lived together I would wash the pitcher regularly. He also thought I was overreacting for wanting to wash the pets' bowls every day so they could eat from CLEAN BOWLS. I am now free, after 23 years of skin-oils XD

Some of you, no doubt, get sick a lot. I grew up playing out doors in the dirt, always had pets (still do), and rarely got sick. Know why? GERMS. I came in contact with germs, bacteria, and viruses of all kinds, and my body built up a strong immune system. Studies have shown that children who grow up in such situations tend to be healthier. For some of you, every little thing grosses you out. I feel sorry for you.
