    Guys... lay off fountain drinks.

    Not only are they shitty for you, the lines that the syrup flow through are full of brutal bacteria.

    I used to bartend while going to school. We had our lines cleaned professionally two times a month (the industry expectation was at least once). The pubs that were in minimal compliance had serious sanitation issues with their draft lines.

    I still get draft beer, but only from reputable places. The hole in the wall establishment makes me leery.

    A woman I worked with got food poisoning from a fountain soda at Safeco watching a baseball game.
    I am the anti-germaphobe....the more chances you take, the higher your immunity.

    I agree somewhat. I don't take unnecessary chances with food though.

    I've had food poisoning three times. Not fun. At all. When stricken with it... I understood very clearly the idea of assisted suicide. I don't ever want it again. My aunt lost her hips to a bout with food poisoning on a cruise ship (on which she worked) as a young woman and couldn't conceive children. It's nothing to mess with.

    damn!

    I’m still the anti-germaphobe.

    And I get it. You are correct in building up your immunity system through exposure. Every time I use hand sanitizer I feel a sense of regret knowing I've cleansed my hands of useful bacteria. We're damned if we do and damned if we don't.

    Not really damned if you don't. Only damned if you do. Nobody outside of a hospital should be using hand sanitizer. Just regular, non-antibacterial soap absolutely does the job that you need done, without contributing to the antibiotic resistant bacteria problem. I'm starting to feel like an anti-hand-sanitizer campaign should be launched TBH.

    Because it is antibacterial, and, just like with antibiotics, the overuse of antibacterial cleansers creates antibiotic and antibacterial resistant bacteria. So I say this for the same reason doctors say not to overuse penicillin and everything. Long story short, it creates superbugs.... and honestly, superbugs could be our ultimate downfall, and it will be all our fault.
    Same goes for spraying everything with Lysol constantly. I know a lot of parents do this especially. They need to stop!!!!

    Here's the thing. If you are around someone that's sick or out and about with no immediate access to water and soap isn't it sensible to use hand sanitizer. Don't doctors advise using hand sanitizer and washing your hands frequently to avoid passing along colds, flu, virus etc.?

    Hand sanitizer is great to use when you are not near a sink.  If you had kids you would get it.  
    People overdo everything of course....

    Pizza.  I want some.  Perhaps tomorrow evening - let's see some pics of pizza!

    Reminds me of the time my daughter and I were skipping rocks in Brooklyn under the Manhattan Bridge, and she picked up a used condom while scooping up rocks. I was always very anti-hand sanitizer, but I sure as shit wanted some then. 

    Thankfully, there was a mom nearby who witnessed the whole ordeal and had some in her purse.

    At least it wasn’t a needle.
