Also, please social distance your ass out of my basement .
COVID or not, wash your damn hands. It is disgusting to see a person deposit a shit and walk right past the soap and water.
Was sitting in a stall and heard a guy leave the urinal and loudly bitch to nobody in particular that he didn’t touch his dick while pissing so he wasn’t going to wash his hands, because, “fuck that shit.” Why are people like this?
They feel powerless in their lives so they exert it aggressively and loudly over the menial things that they actually have control over. Another way to put it, they are not smart.
People won’t.
COVID’s most important lesson is that it’s the fucking Wild West and we’re all stuck doing our best to protect ourselves.
Wash your hands all you want. If you use the door handle afterwards, your hands will be unwashed once again. Because people who don’t wash their hands will have used it.
Whoa whoa whoa. So you’re saying if everyone washes their hands, I use my shirt to open the door and I piss hands free I don’t have to wash my hands? That’s dope.
This is why I open the restroom door at work by nudging the wheelchair accessible door button with my side.
There’s more diseases than COVID that can fuck people up out there
Please wash your hands and keep at least a few feet back
I don’t need to feel your breath on my neck while we’re in line
I miss the day where it was illegal to smell someone’s aweful breath and bo
The one thing I was hoping we’d keep from Covid was sick people wearing masks in public.
Guess not.
Be the change you want to see in the world. There’s so much political bullshit around masking that people do it even less than they used to pre-covid, including healthcare workers.
I was on a plane a few months ago and I swear to god half the plane was visibly sick. Coughing contantly, rubbing snot from their nose, looking upset. Etc. Zero had masks. This was an international flight so it wasn’t even a US thing. The world is universally fucking stupid.
As a guy with covid currently, it is not, in fact, over.
Yeah it really really isn’t. https://www.publichealthontario.ca/en/Data-and-Analysis/Infectious-Disease/COVID-19-Data-Surveillance/Wastewater
Because I’ve had this conversation too many times before:
If you use the urinal, wash your hands. Even if you didn’t have to touch it to flush, wash your hands. Your dick is not “cleaner than the door handle”, wash your hands.
While the door handle is an obvious thing, washing hands when using the restroom is also a great way to regularly wash hands without needing a schedule!
this assumes you don’t wash your dick everytime you go to the bathroom
That’s what the little soap puck in the urinal is for
Apologies. In my poor country we don’t have urinals with hand and dick washing built in. /s
One of the most disappointing g things about growing up is realising how many adults are not actual adults.
No wonder they found fecal bacteria on shopping carts handles.
Your phone is the dirtiest thing you carry around. If you never clean it, it’s dirtier than the toilet bowl.
Reminder to wash your phone! Wipe it down with a damp cloth, then douse it all over in ISO alcohol and wait 1 minute before drying. I do this every day or 2, because I’m not a grotty cunt… Well I am, but I ungrot myself as often as I remember.
This is my kids. Then they get offended when I tell them to go back and wash their hands. Ok, let me see your hands then. They go back to wash their hands, grumbling under their breath.
Ever see the Mythbusters episode where they lined up toothbrushes to see how far fecal matter traveled. Right near the toilet was the worst but nowhere was safe.
So yes washing hands helps but it’s not the be all, end all solution.
I’m sure someone will disagree with me but I think protecting ourselves completely from infection isn’t a good idea. Particularly after reading Immune (good but not the best resource) I think washing our hands all the time or using antibacterial soap is not a good choice for our individual health and immune system strength.
That’s a horrible excuse to have disgusting hands
One of the first things they taught in my micro bio class is that no single bacteria is bad. What is bad is when they are where they shouldn’t be. This makes the point of hand washing more or less to remove bacteria that may be problematic being on your hands where you could spread them to vulnerable areas.
Regular hand soap is perfectly fine. It may dry your hands out from overuse, but as soon as you touch any part of your body (like your arms or face) your hands would be inoculated with your body’s natural flora that resides on your skin.
Antibacterial soap would be the larger issue, as a lot of them have what is called a persistent effect. This persistent effect means that the antibacterial agent leaves traces of itself behind and will kill any bacteria that is susceptible to it. While good if used responsibly for people like surgeons to eliminate/reduce any stray bacteria during a procedure, this can lead to the same sort of scenario we have with antibiotics where some bacteria may develop a resistance to it, which could also include pathogenic varients/strains.
Great details here, thank you for sharing!
I’ll agree on not using antibacterial soap all the time. There’s plenty of soaps that aren’t antibacterial but still help remove contaminants. People should definitely at least wash their hands with hot water. It’s one thing to harbor trace amounts of bacteria, but no one should be spreading urine or fecal matter to every surface they touch.
The way you phrased that is powerful. Nobody should want to spread that stuff everywhere… Ew!
Yeah, your immune system needs exercise just like the rest of your body.
I dont live in a sterile environment. There is a lot of ground between bleaching your home every morning and licking every door handle in Central Station.
Without a doubt! Both extremes are terrible.
Washing your hands after using the bathroom or when handling food (especially for others) is important. Proper hygiene is important, and your immune system will still deal with plenty of microbes to keep it busy.
Washing hands a few times a day when using the restroom is infrequent enough to not be considered washing them all the time. There are hours to get some bacteria, but washing a few times a day reduces the volume so your body doesn’t need to fight as hard.
You only go to the restroom a few times a day?
Sometimes if I’m active enough, but the use of few was to indicate that it wasn’t constantly all day. Like every couple of hours and not every 30.minutes or something when people complain that washing their hands every time is some kind of burden.
Pizza parties at work be like 🤮
This is a thinly veiled parenthood meme
My office at work is across from the men’s room. This meme is me.
So many times a day this happens and I work with these fucks.
Wash your damn hands
Also, please social distance your ass out of my basement .
no deal
COVID isn’t over until supreme pizza toppings are available again at the Costco food court.
I guess it’s even worse to know someone went to the bathroom to pee but to only hear the sink
Not worse! They might have forgotten to flush. At least they have clean hands
