For public doors I use every part of the body except my hands to open and close them.

For public doors I use every part of the body except my hands to open and close them.
- tobyjsullivan 4y agoNot a comment to you, personally, but I saw someone the other day struggling to follow this philosophy. She struggled to open the door to a cafe for what felt like a whole minute because she refused to touch the handle with her hands. All I could think was "if only there was some sort of technology that would leverage our biology to make opening doors easy." (For the record, I was not close enough nor in a position to help out. I'm not that cruel. But I also feel no guilt for laughing inside - it was a spectacle.)
- bombcar 4y agoSome bathrooms have a toekick thing you can use to push the door open, and it extends so you can pull it open with your feet. But as more and more places install the handicap door openers, the more you can open the door just by bouncing off the very large button.
- bobthepanda 4y agoLately I’ve seen motion sensors instead of large buttons for the handicap openers. Unfortunately they seem less reliable.
- foobarbecue 4y agoGross, I can't believe you open doors with your mouth.
