I don't usually sit on the toilet seat in a public facility if I can help it, and if I must I always wipe with some toilet paper first, then place some on the seat before sitting on it.
I do think though that the guy is right to be upset for no-one helping him in his distress, also because he had just had major surgery. Maybe if his motives for suing were not the pay-out, it would be a more worthy suit.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
