Is literally everything covered in feces?
It seems like every week there’s a new article stating that some commonly used thing or body part is covered in fecal material, and all attempts to wash it or clean it are basically just smearing it around.
So I have this idea that everything is covered in shit and cleaning is futile. How am I supposed to live with this knowledge??

Everything that isn't covered in shit, is covered in dead skin.

And microscopic mites, feeding and breeding atop the layers of dead skin and fecal particles (yours and theirs).

Might as well just constantly keep your entire body and environment smeared with shit, OP.
There's actually something really Zen about that; to stop trying to fight the inevitable and just letting go.

I was just thinking about this as well. I was having blue-light vision like in crime scenes where you can pick up blood, other things not seen by the naked eye, and I was imagining everyone and everyTHING was caked in fecal matter. I was thinking how I left the house?

Do those hand sanitizers do anything for feces?

Door knobs are the worst.
And, never, ever let anyone use your phone.

There has to be some kind anti-feces sanitizer out there.

It'd good for your immune system when you're young. Forces it to develop. Our highly over-sanitized western society is responsible for the deluge of allergies in young adults today.

R14, Portland is having a bad allergy year, but because so many people have moved here in the past few years from elsewhere, the pharmacies have run out of OTC meds. Mine are prescription, so I am fine.

Ironically, the only thing not covered in feces ... is feces.

Not mine because apparently I'm the only one who doesn't bring my phone into the bathroom with me. Plus I wash my hands all the time.
I also don't pee in my shower.
So, you know whose house it's safe to eat and sleep in should I invite you over, and you can borrow my phone if you want... only really you CAN'T because you probably haven't washed YOUR hands.

"I also don't pee in my shower."
Yeah, but you pee in your sink.

R22 = Howie Mandel.
And why is not pissing in your shower something you consider worth congratulating yourself for?
Unless you have a raging UTI, fresh piss is pretty clean. Contrary to what some may believe, it's not completely sterile when it exits the body—it is while it's in the bladder, but during its passage through the urethra it usually picks up a few (mostly harmless) bacteria. But... overall it's still pretty clean compared to the sweat, oils, dead skin, dirt and shit particles that you're washing off yourself anyway during a shower.

A poo thread. How original. Is Erna still awake?

This thread is the height of irony, considering how quickly anyone who dares to express disgust with rimming gets shut down by DL "sex positive" queens.

Yes, but that's sex, so it's all ok, Prude R26.

R22, you DO realize, don't you, that even while you are washing those hands for the fiftieth time in an hour, your skin is continually moving an inexhaustible supply of staphylococcus epidermidis colonies to the surface to replace what has been washed away. As Dr. Jeremy Stone says in THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN, "We'll never be RID of it!" So, wash away, silly.

There's bacteria colonies swarming all over you with that feces, semen, dead skin flakes, and mites too! Just be glad we cannot see it, and stop dwelling on it germaphobes!

Here's something else to "chew on". Scientists estimate that without bacteria and various dung beetles, the entire planet would be covered many feet deep in shit from all the animal species in the world. But these lowly critters constantly munch away at shit and recycle it into nutrients for plants so that we don't have to climb on gimongous mounds of it just to walk around. Not all shit is created equal. There exists human shit that is free of parasites and dangerous pathogens. It has been extensively used to help cure people of c.diff and other intestinal ailments. (Fecal material transplant). Apparently water-flush toilets are one of the worst culprits in spreading shit around in our modern environment, as they spray microscopic particles of it everywhere every time we flush. As with most things, it's the size of the dose of shit that we might inadvertently consume from our constant exposure that could potentially result in disease, so it's rare, except on a crowded cruise ship where every third person has a likely case of a norovirus ready to go, that we would receive a dose big enough to make us sick.

Always put the lid down on your toilet after no.2 or you will be allowing aerated poop germs to go everywhere. Then wipe the flush handle with disinfectant wipes and wash your hands.
