the "is it necessary" thread

This for things that just don't seem to make any logical sense. For instance, can someone explain to me why many public bathrooms now have foam soap? It's like someone pre-lathered it for you.

And while we're on weird things in public bathrooms, has anyone else noticed they now have instructions sometimes on how to wash hands? I'm not talking about "All employees must wash hands," I'm talking about telling the common person that it works best if you turn on the water while you wash your hands.

I like the "Wait for Green" signs at some traffic lights. Duh!

I think this is for all those idiots that like to lather up their dirty, muddy, putrescent hands and then grab the faucet handle while lathered up, instead of turning on the water first and then proceeding to do your duty.

It's no worse than the directions on top of most pepsi/coca-cola cans that tell you exactly how to open the product.

people need direction for anything and everything.

I will admit to getting momentarily confused at a sink recently. They had an automatic soap dispenser but a manual faucet.

Automatic flush toilets scare the hell out of me. Always take me off guard. lol
