Germophobe

[CrazyKell]

Are you a germophobe?

A couple of my friends are and it drives me absolutely batty. It's just downright annoying.

I'm not a dirty person....but if I go into someone's house and cough a little because they might have a different pet than I do....i don't come right out and take a host of drugs because I might be having a reaction.

Every red mark on my skin is not the start of a rash.

I am not allergic to umpteen different foods just because they didn't agree with me.

If my fork falls on the TABLE at a restaurant I'll still use it.

This particular friend overused her sonic toothbrush so much that she's taken some of the enamel off her teeth.

A little dirt never hurt!

I used to be. Now, I don't care. I've had enough dog poo on me to overcome any germ fear.

Nope.

I am not really a germophobe, but I don't like being around sick people.

I tend to get a lot of colds/viruses from other people. I really hate it when people say it's just sinus and then I end up with their freakin cold too.
So I just avoid sick people.

As far as dirt and stuff like that, that doesn't really bother me. I wouldn't eat off a dropped fork in a restaurant, but would at home.

I guess not, if I'll eat a sandwich while using a prep table in the race pits as my plate.

Im the furthest thing from one...If Germaphobes actually think they can outrun germs there wrong...there EVERYWHERE...stop wasting your life trying to "stay Clean"

Its fucking stupid

And it makes me want to punch babies

Oh I just thought of another one. She won't handwash ANYTHING. Everything goes in the dishwasher on the hottest cycle to kill the germs. Same goes for laundry....hottest cycle for everything just to kill the germs.

Funny...In the restaurant/food retail business...They dont want there sanitizer really hot....or really cold...to work the most effective we have to keep it between 70 and 75 degress...more like lukewarm.

So shes probably creating MORE germs that way

Don't tell her about the mites on her eyelashes.. or the bacteria in her digestive tract.. or the bacteria/fungus that live in her vag (seems like she has an overload of sand in there, though..).. or the bacteria that live under her fingernails.. or in her mouth.

I'll wash my hands after taking the trash out or changing a dirty diaper or being around sick people.. but I try not to overdo it.

A ltl bit. In my personal life no. I'm not gross and messy by any means but I don't go crazy over small stuff. Now at work I'm a ltl scared of catching cooties. I'm constantly using hand sanitizer, washing my hands (when I can get to water) and if I work a bloody scene there's a scalding hot shower and serious scrubbing when I get home. I do wash my work clothes separate and change before I do any hugging and loving on the family.
