I was in a restaurant bathroom today, evacuating the weak ole bladder, and the water at the sink is going full blast. I didn't notice it at first, but it kept running and running, like as high and forcibly as it can go. The bathroom had one of those paper towel dispensers you wave your hand under to get a piece, and I heard "voop" "voop" "voop" over and over again. "Must be a little kid" I'm thinking as I squeeze out the last few drippity drops. I exit the stall with the intention of sweetly reprimanding the little twerp, and find a middle aged woman who looks deceptively normal finally shutting the water off. She proceeds to swiftly karate chop the air like five more times under the paper towel dispenser, use one piece to dry her hands, then use the remaining wad to let herself out of the bathroom. I think someone forgot to take their crazy pill.

Or she's a nurse. Every single person in my nursing program washes and exits that way :) I can tell people who aren't nursing students think we're crazy.
Not full blast though because of the back splash.
It's true, I've used paper towels to open the door for years and years. Although, I only use one to open the door. No need to use a big wad. Some people are just a little retarded. I kept expected that story to end horribly wrong...like the bathroom flooding with poo on your feet or something..., so I'm glad it was just a paper towel lady.
I tried to use a paper towel to open the bathroom door at Subway today, but the trash was too far away from the door and I didn't want to carry it around and as I was deliberating Theron opened the door and turned out the light WITH HIS BARE HANDS!!! What would we do without brave, germ-oblivious little boys? I was only using one towel, though, for the record. Maybe the water was on full blast so you couldn't hear her busting grumpies.
I'm telling you guys, the woman used an entire mighty oak in the span of 45 seconds! Talk about environmentally unfriendly!
I agree that it sounds like that lady was using way too many paper towels, but I am a little OCD about this too. People do look at me weird.
The other day I was at this conference thing. I used the handicapped stall and noticed there was a sink in there. I started washing my hands, but then realized there was no soap, so I exited and used the regular sink. This was a conference, so there was lots of coffee and lots of peeing involved. Every single person I saw use the handicapped stall after me used the sink in the stall and then left. One lady even said something about how nice it was that there was a sink in there as she left. I wanted to be like "Yeah, if you're gross." Just to be sure, I checked later and they hadn't put in soap in there or anything. That's why you have to use a paper towel to open the door to the bathroom.
