Sanitation: Which one of these guys would you rather shake hands with?

I voted for 1, even though I know it’s more logical to vote for 2. But when the two options are presented in that way, I can’t overcome the “natural” aversion to another guy’s junk.

Since I’m sure I’ve shaken hands of both guys this week, I’m not going to let it bother me too much.

But I’m sure if you took swabs of each guy’s hands and cultured them, #1 would have more pathogenic bacteria on them.

After rolling dung around all day?!

He didn’t ask. :smiley:

If I have to touch the doorknob on the way out, I use my left hand. As I do wash my hands, just don’t extend me your left hand for a handshake.

Shakes, you really should just wash your hands after taking a piss.

The poll question came up (in a way) this past weekend, when Mrs. J. and I stopped at a Sonic for lunch and decided to use the restroom first. Turns out the hot and cold water taps in the sink didn’t work. We had a packaged handi-wipe to use, but what about the employees?

After a queasy moment thinking about it, we went elsewhere.

I’ll choose option 2. I figure if I know his bathroom habits so intimately, he’s probably a good friend already.

I do. Are you under the impression that I don’t?

If the guy just went to the bathroom to pee, then he handled his penis with his hands. His penis has been inside his underwear getting sweaty all day.

No, I don’t want to shake the hand of a guy who’s got crotch sweat on his hands. #1 it is.

If you’re really creeped out by the notion of shaking hands with a man who hasn’t washed since taking a pee, I have some bad news for you.

I know some of you mofos are proud to not wash your hands after peeing, but #2 makes me think that his hygiene is lacking in other ways. #2 also has e. coli “from the source.” The other is at least steps removed from the source.
