    That happened to me once. I didn’t touch it and it just squirted out.

    It's not because of the keypads, it's because of the germs on the crisp £20s that contractors used to use for wiping their arses before the downturn.

    Surgeons wear gloves. And I bet they use something more than regular soap.

    You can be a smartarse if you like, but simple soap does NOT remove bacteria.

    It's been shown that washing your hands does close to sod all as far as removing bacteria. Washing just removes the smell... the bacteria in your poo are the kind which live inside you anyway (where do you think they come from?!)

    Your body is full of, and covered with, hundreds of different types of bacteria all the time.

    BTW, harmful bacteria can live in poo inside your bowels wilh no ill effects but the same bacteria are lethal if they spread to you gut or organs.

    Glad you enjoy my posts and cos i never got no proper edumucation like what you did i had tu look it up

    thanks wikipeadia

    A text is deemed Joycean when it is reminiscent of the writings of James Joyce, particularly Ulysses or Finnegans Wake. Joycean fiction exhibits a high degree of verbal play, usually within the framework of stream of consciousness. Works that are "Joycean" may also be technically eclectic, employing multiple technical shifts as a form of thematic or subject development. In this latter respect, it is not merely an opaque or evident technique, such as is characteristic of avant garde prose, but technical shifts that are meant to be recognized by the reader and considered as part of the narrative itself. More than anything, however, Joycean has come to denote a form of extreme verbal inventiveness which tends to push the English language towards multi-lingual polysemy or impenetrability.[1] Joycean word play frequently seeks to imply linguistic and literary history on a single plane of communication. It therefore denies readers the simple denotative message traditional in prose in favor of the ambiguity and equivocal signification of poetry.

    Everytime unlike some in this department i could mention, its like wim121 says"There is a difference between over sterilising your environment and just common sense in not consuming harmful bacteria deliberately"

    Its the over sterilisation thats the problem and the more you do it the more bugs will become immune to the antibacterial
