    I subbed as an organist for a few weeks at a Christian Scientist church. They don’t believe in germs, but they had plenty of hand soap in the bathrooms.

      Every time i hear about an organist, i imagine them secretly being the famous concert organist and expert in theology and music, Dr. Anton Phibes.

        Oh, I sucked as an organist. Never mastered the pedals. I do have a doctorate in music however. I mostly play the harpsichord and clavichord.

    Saw a guy at work confidently stride out of the bathroom without washing his hands after taking one of the messiest shits I’ve ever heard. My man, we all know where you sit in this small office. You should know to pretend to not be a goblin unless you’re actively trying to get fired.

    There’s another guy who claps while he poops. Not sure which is worse.

    RFK jr swam in sewer runoff, and so do lots of other Americans… Most without knowing, but more than you think don’t care.

    If you think there are people who won’t admit to not washing their hands after pooping…

    You’re overestimating Americans.

      I know people who are proud that they don’t wash their hands, their ass, or their feet. Knew a girl from HS who dumped a dude because he never wiped his ass. And it wasn’t because his family had a bidet.

      I used to go quahogging (digging for clams) in a shallow part of the bay when I was a kid.

      Lots of quahogs in this spot and barely anybody ever there. It was like a hidden gem of a spot.

      Sometimes we’d shuck and eat them raw while we were in the water.

      Oh yeah, we were in the water, digging by hand. None of that metal rake business.

      That is, until an EPA truck pulled up as we were getting out one day. Told us that this place had been closed due to fecal bacteria continuation. I guess a lot of boats tended to dump their sewage in the area.

      I haven’t gone quahogging since. Haven’t even eaten a single clam.
