Do you also wash your lips before your food touches them? Think of all the germs on your lips.

You need to wash the dishes when you take them from the shelves, sitting overnight causes dust to settle on them and they are dirty again before you use them?... Do you wash your hands after each cabinet door or drawer you touch between putting each dish away?

do you open the freezer door and leave it open while you wash your hands before grab a few ice cubes and put them in your glass?

Do you feel the need to clean your soap after you wash your hands when they are really dirty/germy? after all if you wash your hands, you really are just transferring the dirt & germs from your hands to the bar...

YOU NEED HELP MAN.
Wrap yourself in a giant body condom and dont ever touch anything again or else the germs will get you.

I do this in public bathrooms, but nowhere else.

I read a very interesting report a while back, it basically said that being exposed to small amounts of germs constantly is very good for your immune system because it will strengthen itself. There was some study and it found that people who picked their nose and ate their boogers were the least likely to get sick in any way shape or form.

These boogers are awesome. Haven't been sick in a long time until I got this sinus infection a few weeks ago.

All joking and booger eating aside, you are correct about being exposed to germs. Without germs your body can not build up resistance and become sensitive to everything.
