  There’s a scene in Spartacus (tv show) where two noblemen are walking through the streets, discussing business or something. Mid-conversation, they head into a public restroom, squat, take a shit, pass around the sponge, all while carrying on their conversation.
  My friend called it: “the single most nonchalantly disgusting scene on television”, the final straw for her was seeing them share the sponge.
context: Having a manky shit sponge hanging around in your bathroom is properly rank. ‘Almost as good as as new’ - no it’s not, it’s covered in your turds.
  Edit : take my upvote >
  
  Fun historic fact: the ancient Romans used to do this, sponge on a stick. Shared around in the public bathrooms. 
  Unlike OP though, they had the excuse of limited alternative options…
