The germaphobia in me really want a version that is activated by a pedal that you step on.

But then, I'd probably be too afraid of shared water fountains to begin with.

I have to use paper towels to open doors, and probably use hand sanitizer afterwards on top of that. This is just... (no words to describe)

Medical advice from a stranger on the Internet, so take with salt to taste:

You may want to talk to a psychiatrist about screening for OCD. There's nothing wrong with staying sanitary, but you deserve to live life without your brain forcing you to do things you don't want to =)

I'd rather not touch the bathroom door handle especially knowing quite a few people walk right out of a stall and skip the sink. It's a very easy way to get sick.

That whole episode was one of the best bits of television in history.

The bottle filler is activated by proximity. I think that's totally doable for the other part, too.

I just use my knuckles, maybe even with my sleeve or shirt covering them.
