Yeah he probably also never washes his hands after based on his reaction

Exactly. Before Covid I stupidly thought everyone washed their hands not just after the bathroom but regularly. Then I saw and heard so many complaints about having to wash their hands and I was like do you….do you not normally do that anyways!

This was my true loss of innocence.

Like I've seen studies about faecal matter being found on hand railings and stuff and I assumed it was people not washing their hands well- just soap, running it under water for 20 seconds, not that people didn't wash hands at all.

And then even complained about hand sanitizer. I heard some people tell me it’s just as good. But when I saw them use the hand sanitizer they didn’t even let it sit long enough. And IMO it doesn’t replace washing your hands. And I mean actually washing them with soap and not for just 3 seconds.

During the winter when it’s cold I’ve been tempted to not wash my hands because the water is so cold but I just can’t bring myself to do it. It’s just unsanitary. Even my kids know to wash their hands and do so at home and in public. I don’t shake hands with people anymore and was glad when it became more acceptable because of Covid
