Bad Hygiene Habits That Are Way Too Common
When I was in 7th grade, I was a winner in our grade school science fair. I believe I came in 3rd place. Go me! My project was the typical easy kid’s project, which room in your house has the most bacteria. Kitchen, family room or bathroom. Turns out it’s the kitchen. Makes sense, right? Lots of raw food, maybe you didn’t wipe the counter well enough. 3rd place! I then got my ass handed to me at the George Washington Carver Science Fair. I didn’t stand a chance against real science nerds.
I’m talking about bacteria in a science project because I stumbled upon a bad hygiene thread on reddit. Some of the comments on the thread are real head scratchers. Here are some that I, and maybe you, might be guilty of. Also some that are no-brainers and gross that people don’t do it.
Just rinsing your hands in the bathroom. This was the first one on the thread and I knew some of these were going to be a doozy after the first response to this: Post– “Remember the beginning of the pandemic, when the government had to remind people to use SOAP?” Response– “I remember my aunt telling me, ohh the gov is telling everyone to shower with soap. And we were like ??? Did you not though? And she said, no I use lemon”
I pity the person who has to sit next to that aunt at family functions!
Not cleaning your belly button. Ok. When my kids were really little they found my belly button to be hilarious. One time my middle child was figuring out where his belly button was and wanted to see mine. He and the older one decided to see if they could make their finger disappear. They found lint in it, and I’ve never lived it down.
Not washing your sheets and pillowcases enough. If you were to poll men and women, there is no doubt the majority of men might wash their sheets like two times a year. We’re the gross sex on this planet.
Flushing with the toilet lid up. If you have little boys this doesn’t matter because they have already peed all over the seat, probably the floor and the trash can. Maybe the water droplets leaving your toilet will help clean the pee better.

“Andre Gardner took this photo here in the parking lot at 1 Bala Plaza. It has to be like 1984.
I am holding up my sleeveless Union Jack T-shirt… Because of my love of some British rock bands. I am in a 1978 Plymouth Fury.”Andre Gardner
“Here’s a random goofy shot of me and the current teen idol at the time, Rick Springfield, backstage before his show at the old Century Theater in Audubon, NJ. The shot was taken in October 1981 and I was the M.C. of one of the two shows he played there. His song “Jessie’s Girl” had just peaked at #1.The theater has long been torn down. I think it was a Rite Aid last time I passed by LOL.I was the night DJ at the big Top 40 FM in Philly at the time, WIFI (WIFI-92). Can you believe those were our call letters? Now it’s XTU.”Cyndy Drue
