“If you feel the need to wash your hands after touching your dick – shouldn’t you be washing your dick instead?” – George Carlin

You should probably do both on a regular basis.

Seriously, people arguing against washing your hands shouldn’t be allowed out of their houses. They should be locked away so they can’t harm themselves and others.

1) That’s one of the oldest jokes in the book. Geez, you hear the one about the chicken who tried to cross the road? And how ’bout that new movie star Buster Keaton?

2) It’s not peeing ON your hands I worry about – it’s splatters.

3) Ok, splatters and the whole “touching your genitals” thing. Are Carlin et al are so hunky-dory with not washing that they would willingly shake hands with any old stranger who had just shoved their hands down their pants and rooted around for awhile? Dana? Kodos? You guys cool with that? Because I’m not.

4) Just because urine is STERILE, that doesn’t mean it STERILIZES. Those are two separate things. Just like my being left-handed doesn’t make others left-handed when I touch them.

“A soldier and a Marie walk into the restroom together. They finish, and the Marine is about to walk out teh door, when the soldier says, ‘In the Army, they teach us to wash our hands after we use the restroom.’

The Marine responds, ‘In the Marine Corps, they teach us not to pee on our fingers.’”

This is a fucking stupid joke. Urine would actually sterilize your hands. It’s the bacteria on your skin that’s causing the problems.

Wash your hands, or get the hell out of civilization. Go live in the mountains somewhere in a shack.

Damn straight.

I have to believe that you have better things to complain about. Like the Cowboys, for instance.

“You may now return to your usual irrational Dallas hatred (sigh).”

It’s not irrational.

Thanks, Oliver. You’re right — this is more siginficant than most of us realize. Besides, it *IS* gross. And Strowbridge is right about antibacterial soap, although of course you can’t avoid that in public restrooms.

You may now return to your usual irrational Dallas hatred (sigh).

I wash my hand a dozen times a day. I wash before I prepare a meal, after I prepare a meal, (especially if I was working with raw meat), before I eat, after I eat, etc.

It’s such a simple way to reduce illness.

Oh, and don’t use antibacterial soap. All that does it create resistant strains of bacteria.
