ROFL!!!

I have so many habits that make that look tame that I can’t comment negatively on it :)

Doesn't register with me until I see mold forming. If I catch it early enough, I'll scrape off the mold and nuke it in the microwave for a minute.

I'll be 62 in May. I'll make an exception for moldy bread, though. If the mold is larger than a penny, it's gone.

What, you never did?

Bacteria are not motile. They depend on being physically picked up, through adherence to another surface or riding along with some other means of motility.

A definite part of your body weight is already bacteria, so a few more ingested or coming into contact with your body do not normally make that much difference. In fact most pathogens have direct antagonists from other species of bacteria, as well as antibodies created by the host on which they find themselves.

I never actually thought the 3 second rule was scientific fact. It is generally a humorous excuse for being too lazy to wash a babies pacifier that falls on the floor isn’t it?

Guess some people need an excuse for their existence. What’s next, debunking the myth of a black cat walking under a ladder?

If I get it before the cat/dog scarfs it up, it's mine!
