"When I shake hands with someone, I think about germs. Then I try to go and wash pretty soon after. Maybe I'll try this hugging thing..."

"OMG OCD!!!! Humans have lived in filth all of their exsistence on this planet. The reason we have become so paranoid about germs in recent years, is that the clever advertising executives on 5th Avenue are earning their paychecks. We have all been made-over into brainwashed, germaphobic zombies by the ad industry. "

"I can't fault her- I've worked in food service, and I realize how many dirty hands you can come across in a short time. The hug method, or the pound method, work pretty well to get around this- but have you ever thought about a fashionable pair of gloves? That way, you can shake hands with no germs and still look good in the process."
