I don't even know how the mechanism in this works, but I'll assume it's witchcraft.

Either way, dry hands! :D

I love those things. No more cardboard textured paper towels!

Oh my goodness, THIS. I don't know what sets me off more than hundreds of these things piled all over the floor.

If you piss in the right way, it stays in the middle in some twisted, sometimes yellow but should be clear stream of warm glory.

In my experience, they only work marginally better than normal dryers. Paper towels are the only way to go IMO

I actually want to see what happens when someone uses it as a urinal.

If only they made this sort of thing with water jets and soap for mechanics, that would be awesome. Seriously, orange degreaser only goes so far, same goes with dawn.

studies show it's significantly better than standard driers.. but still increase bacteria rather than decrease it. (who would have thought that warm wet surfaces are good for bacteria :P)

Paper towels are still the best.

I don't understand, you don't touch anything using it. Does it blow them on?

the bacteria is on your hands to begin with, even with soap and water and scrubbing there will still be some there.

I suppose the hot air and moisture from the driers create an ideal environment for the bacteria to grow. (if you wanted to kill it from hot air alone you'd be burning your skin too)

they also blow the bacteria infected water all over itself and the surrounding area, creating cultures in and around the hand driers. Over time it's conceivable that the driers will blow warm bacteria onto your hands too.

I imagine some sort of piss vortex forms in which you simply scoop the piss out with a dixie cup and place it in the trash like a gentleman.

I think they seem to be much more effective than those shitty glorified hair dryers that most places have.
