An assault he can defend himself in court, he is lucky there wasn't a Ont. Human Rights Tribunal complaint.

:) Well, you don't forget much, do you? lol. I still do that also, along with washing myself.
I surrender though, apparently washing your hands no matter whether it involves common courtesy of proper hygiene is silly and a waste of time to some folks. I have no response to that besides eww. I actually pulled a fellow back into the bathroom last week for that very thing. An asian bloke who worked at the place I was eating. I had finished, was in the bathroom to pay a visit and wash up.... he came in after me, took a leak and flipped it around.. and was on his way out the door to go back to work before I had finished washing my hands.

Didn't fly with me.. grabbed him by the shoulder and demanded he wash his hands if he didn't want to lose his job. He did.. wasn't happy, but did. I won't be eating there ever again. This behaviour is ok to some though, it seems.

Absolute pigs.

Depends on your definition of clean and a women who rejects a guy for that is a superficial twit who deserves the guy she gets and grandpa is probably still around cause he worked hard.

Some women prefer dirty men.

Grandpa worked for GE; Probably from 42-86. Back then the unions made everyone work hard. He had the pleasure of dipping his hand in PCB fluid - from transformers. (hence the cancer) But as you said, hard work never killed anyone.

My Grandma (on the other side of the family) is 97 - she should make it to 100 since most of her cousins did or at least close. Uncle Ace died a 99 and the aunt at 101.

I have no idea how though - none of them ate health and grandpa smokes like a chimney and drinks like it is going out of style.

Shit ladies and gentlemen is a fact of life. Your toothbrush in the bathroom is soiled with e-coli and other bacteria. Your body is covered in evil bacteria.

The world is gross, but at the same time, we have built-in systems to accept and deal with what is thrown at us.

And folks, my job requires me to wash my hands, at least 30 times a day. I often find myself just washing my hands out of routine, but I still feel that seeing as most don't damned if you do, damned if you don't (and that poll btw is bullshit, people don't tell the truth).

On the other hand, at the bars I rarely dudes washing their hands... so it's a tough call. Maybe people do say they're more hygienic than they truly are; although the poll is anonymous, so why would 100 people lie?

Sean posted : This thread is hilarious. On the one hand, the stats show one thing. And on the other hand, everyone here is super hygienic.

I smell bullshit.

Let me be the first to be truthful in this entire thread.

I probably do not wash my hands after I take a leak. After I take a dump, if it's a clean wipe, I won't bother washing my hands. If it's a bit messy, I'll wash my hands.

I hardly ever wash my hands outside of washroom use. Not even before I eat.

And to top it off, the last time I was sick was two flu seasons ago. Haven't been sick in over a year, god damnit. And I do not get flu shots, ever. Not getting one this year, either. And fuck the H1N1 flu shot. Unneccecary. I'd rather use the body that evolution has designed for me over billions of years.

Amazing how careful people are about microscopic bits of shit on their hands, and yet they will fucking SHOVEL shit into their mouths, and on top of that, they'll PAY to have that shit shoveled into their mouths.

FUCK. Eat right. Excercise. Drink water. Dress warmly. Don't eat shit.

Honestly, when society crumbles and there is no infrastructure left, all of you sanitary freaks will be the first to die of severe infections.

Seriously. Read the study.

I'll admit, that study gives a different reason for the declining health of Africans after they leave Africa to come to the West (racism and such), but the more obvious answer is they have built up more of an immune system in Africa, and then Western habits of cleanliness erode their immune systems.

But seriously. What has all that sanitary thinking done for you? Other than make your hands smell like a hospital all the fucking time?

Didn't your parents make you wash your hands before dinner? Brush your teeth after every meal? Shower twice a day? Wash your hands before leaving the bathroom?

anon posted : I hear the sounds of Howard Hughes wannabees ... or hand-washing Taliban (you MUST do as I/we believe or you are anti-social and should have your hands cut off!)

So maybe it's time for a joke:

Two men, strangers, enter a public restroom and use the urinal. Both finish, zip up and the first goes to the sink and begins washing their hands while the second just walks out of the john.

After their hand-washing the first exits and runs and catches up to the second and demands "Hey buddy, didn't your mother teach you to wash up after using the bathroom?"

To which the second replies: "Nope, she taught me not to piss on my hands when I go."

Which would basically sum up my point of view.

I wash before handling food or if my hands are actually dirty, by my definition.

I'm not interested patronizing what are IMO nonsensical societal customs.

Making me, perhaps, anti-social : /
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

There's an SNL skit, Mike Meyers is maybe 'the deceased', where a guy is at the pearly gates having been recently dispatched. Guy is chatting up St Peter, wants to know the grossest thing he ever ate while alive, St. Peter wouldn't tell him saying it's be too gross. Guys asks for 10th grossest, then 100th, then 1000th. Finally at something like the 5182nd grossest thing St. Peter tells him what it was (which I of course forget).

But the point was a good one, IMO - we have no idea of the icky things we consume every day but if we think about it we can freak-out ourselves right out.

I'm sure I have unwittingly consumed dead skin cells from unknown women's labia and men's penises and urea and feces from each of them too.

Bacteria with unpronouncable names of Latin, unspeakable specieses.

But it's no big deal - personally I nearly never, ever, ever get sick with anything seasonal or similar and if it's such a problem people'd be dropping like flies given the prevalence of we not-always-washer's.

Thus excessive concern in this area, to me, makes no sense ... so homey don't play yer game : )

In fact I think that one day, given the prevalence of sometimes-washers, sensibility will prevail in what is the 'norm' and 'custom' too.

(Noteworthy though, is that the bar soap I have in my bug-out-bag is carbolic.)

So be a germophobe if you want, just don't expect me to be one too.

Now the potential for splashing at the trough that is gross.

Noname9 posted : I remember that there's more germs in the kitchen that most people's bathrooms. I was shocked to hear that I wonder if people actually clean their kitchen well.

The point of washing your hands is reducing bacteria exposure. The less bacteria the easier to the immune system to fight it off. That's why with the swine flu they suggest that you wash your hands. There is a proper way of washing hands, it should take at least 30 seconds. I remember a cooking show where they tested their students to proper wash their hands. Afterward they had some kind of dye to see where they missed.

I have hand sanitizer that I use time to time especially if power goes out in my building. It is about reducing bacteria not completely getting rid of it.

I was going to post to the same thing lol. This thread is pretty funny. Most people are kidding themselves thinking that washing their hands with soap for 10 seconds does a lot to actually make them more sanitary. The truth is you need to scrub your hands and in your nails the way doctors do before surgery to really make a difference.

I admit I try not to touch the handles in the bathroom without using paper towel but some people seem to think there's a huge difference between the levels of germs in the bathroom compared to the rest of the world. If you work in an office on a computer all day, your keyboard is a highly concentrated area of bacteria and viruses.

They put hand sanitizer stations at the 2 entrances to the office where I work yesterday. I find this pretty funny and it really does nothing to reduce overall risk of getting something.

The truth is, the washing and hand sanitizer is mostly for peace of mind, not actual sanitation.

alamarco posted : This sort of situation always makes me think of the following:

After taking a dump, do you pull up your pants or do you waddle to the sink, wash your hands and then pull up your pants?

Not sure how many people waddle, but for those that don't. How many germs are now running wild on your pants? Surely, throughout the day, you're going to touch your pants at least once. Do you now wash your hands after every touch of the pants?

Personally, I find people worry to much. A whole lot worse goes on and I'm not going to waste my life worrying about every little thing that may or may not have happened. If I see something, I'll speak up, but I'm not going on a witch hunt.

What happened to soap? Now all over the place you see this anti-bacterial crap. Is soap not good enough anymore? People worry too much, and this is why people get so sick. Your immune system is so weak and unused that when you actually do get sick, it's really bad. Instead of just a small cold that lasts a day, you get put out a week.

Sure, I wash my hands, but I don't care enough to start a witch hunt.
