It saves having to worry about coming in contact with germs that are not from me. <br /><br />When I am stressed I hate to confess that I use Purell as a body wash. Don't ask why, it's a weird thing but it reduces my stress levels. <br /><br />Home germs are fine, I know them. Public germs are just dire. lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05392205573326695683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-57164603640490263662013-07-23T11:49:35.646-07:002013-07-23T11:49:35.646-07:00Did the guy who ate the cookie live to tell the ta...Did the guy who ate the cookie live to tell the tale?<br /><br />If so, you have your answer...DuggleBogeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02919663542675107189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-88440048138569216562013-07-22T17:41:52.582-07:002013-07-22T17:41:52.582-07:00Oh Linda, you've no idea the laugh you just ga...Oh Linda, you've no idea the laugh you just gave me!<br />"creating our sterile eating field"...yup, that's me too and I thought I was the only one in the world!<br />As for putting bread right on the counter, and people with granite worktops are lethal for this, I can't understand it!<br />Now I've one more to think about in the birthday cake scenario!<br />Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100985140335023467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-90065010431140209652013-07-22T16:13:16.058-07:002013-07-22T16:13:16.058-07:00:):)~Coachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063024399528751971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-51536694944812185792013-07-22T13:29:55.866-07:002013-07-22T13:29:55.866-07:00Yes, you are loons. Which is one of the things I ...Yes, you are loons. Which is one of the things I love about you.<br /><br />I don't even think about half that stuff. I unwrap my silverware and set it down on the table, I admit it. It has never dawned on me to worry that someone who cooked a potluck dish in their own kitchen may have petted their dog.<br /><br />Don't you worry about whether the guy in the back room has sneezed over your food? Or picked his nose and then handled your burger? Eating out isn't all that different than a potluck!<br /><br />I agree with Mike, those of us not nearly as germophobic don't seem to be any sicker....so maybe it's not really a germ thing...it's just the ick factor you think about that gets you.<br /><br />Julie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688319872727995846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-41808339223225378722013-07-22T10:45:03.459-07:002013-07-22T10:45:03.459-07:00i'm sort of the opposite of a germaphobe. i th...i'm sort of the opposite of a germaphobe. i think all the germs build immunities. not that i invite them, but i just don't really pay attention. bread and cookies on counters and tables don't bother me. <br /><br />i am grossed out, however, when people blow their noses and put the tissue on the table. or take food out of their mouths and put it on their plates. olive pits aren't a fave either.<br /><br />oh my, am i actually a germaphobe?Melisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05636667782705233988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-70914520093899180002013-07-22T08:54:52.350-07:002013-07-22T08:54:52.350-07:00I was wondering the same thing as Mike, but then I...I was wondering the same thing as Mike, but then I remembered that I have a 'delicate' constitution and am plagued my all sorts of ailments. Perhaps if I became a germ warrior my health would improve....<br /><br />The things that I adhere to are: bathroom sponges are for bathroom ONLY, dish towels are for dishes ONLY,and...I think that's it. I even share lip balm (yuck).<br /><br />I've never, ever heard of waving a paperplate over a birthday cake. But I would do it for you, because either way, the candles will go out. And I want you to have some cake.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052375488090209961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-37841554280085337632013-07-22T07:05:56.274-07:002013-07-22T07:05:56.274-07:00Funny post, Linda.

Especially the part about the hand towel vs dish towel.<br /><br />I've known a couple of serious germophobes in my life (for the record, I'm not one), and they can never seem to answer this question. I'm very interested to see how you do with it.<br /><br />Given the fact that you take great care to avoid germs on hand towels, napkins, food counters, etc, and that most people (myself included) do not take anywhere near that degree of care, why are the rest of us not paying any real consequences?<br /><br />In other words, we're all presumably risking our health by these less-than-sanitary practices, and yet we live to tell about it. Why is that?<br /><br />Go.Mike Dennishttp://mikedennisnoir.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-54817580975288942442013-07-22T06:35:55.508-07:002013-07-22T06:35:55.508-07:00I am and now you have given me even more things to...I am and now you have given me even more things to think about! When ever the grandkids come over and bring there ipads, I promptly wipe them down because, I can't stand the millions of finger prints all over. My granddaughter always thanks me too!
